    Clearly a man with proper perspective.

    For all we know Lowry could blow up like AB did and drop back to pre last year levels.

    * a couple years from now lottery protected first rounder that's worth as much as toilet paper

    ** it would have been better to let Battier walk than take on a horrific bust making $5M when we could have used the roster spot for a league minimum guy (like Greg Smith) that can actually play basketball

    *** You aren't getting back what we sent over for him. That alone makes it a bad trade. Once again, we'd have been better off jsut keeping the pick and using it. He has played, and he sulked up and down the court like Bad TMac. Pathetic attitude.

    The Hornets are near a deal to send Chris Paul to the Lakers for Andrew Bynum and Lamar Odom, league source tells Y! Sports.

    Great. Lots of 4/5's and no point guard?

    Correction: The proposed deal to the Lakers is Chris Paul for Pau Gasol and Lamar Odom, source says.

    Scola doesn't fit with the drafting of Donatas and Morris. Donatas is going to be a baller. If Morris can play the three and we dont get rid of Kmart. We could eventually have a starting five of.

    Gasol 7ft
    Montejunas 7ft
    Morris 6' 9"
    Martin
    Lowry


    Thats a lot of size and skill on that front line. Got to have size down low in the NBA and thats a lot of size. Not only size but skilled offensively and defensive size.
