    Still excited over the win, but for most of the game I probably screamed every curse word I know at Howard and Taylor. I mean even a slight upgrade at PF could go a long way into salvaging this season, especially after this watershed type game. Any realistic suggestions?

    I dont think it is realistic to believe that we will be able to trade for a good rebounding PF during the season. we will probably have to go with what we have. We need to hope that Mo can re-discover his offense and play with the same intensity as he did last season. Additionally, as i said a week ago, we need to see if Spoon can help us out on the boards. I belive he is our best rebounding PF. He has a nice little jumper and plays tough defense. i realize he is undersized but i wold still like to see him get some mins.

    Make a trade for Jerome Williams of NY. He can be had. He is rotting on the bench behind Kurt Thomas, Michael Sweetney and Vin Baker.

    I would love to have JYD on our team. He is a fan favor, high-energy and good rebounder

    Exactly what this team needs! Instead of a Bowen/Howard forward combo you would go with a JJ/Williams forward combo. That way we have the outside shooting of JJ combined with the hustle of Williams.

    Good idea. The only question is what do we have that Isiah might want?

    Convince Isiah that Juwan Howard is a better tradable asset for him and send us Williams. Their contracts are just about identical with Williams being a year shorter I think.
