I think KT and Cat are gonna make this a hard team to beat I think KT always did a DECENT job on Tim . . .and his movement gave Tim some reason to worry Cat on Manu will be just a joy to watch Bibby v Parker Bowen v Peja [Offense v Defense] The center position will be Key I hope they meet in the 1st round so the rockets on have to mess with one of them Rocket River
i don't see the kings slipping any. nobody thought that after webber was delt the kings would be able to keep thier 5th spot. they havent been losing mutch since the trade. as a rocket fan, i'm happy about this. i want to stay in 6th place and play the sonics (not the mavs) in the first round.
I think it's only a matter a time before GMs around the league stop making deals with SacTown, no matter how lop-sided they appear at first.
KT had a heck of a game against Detroit, 31 minutes, 8-13 fg's, 3-4 ft's, 10rb's, 2 assists, 2 bs. I always liked KT - sorry he left and we didn't get much for him. Hope this works better for him than Philly did.
JPo was a better fit for Rox than KT, but Philly worked out better for him than anywhere else probably would have...he got paid BIG time. Don't cry for KT. Don't cry for JPo. I always wondered how high Rox would have gone for JPo had Griz not stepped up.
The connection between Posey and Jackson is a will-o-the-wisp, a gossamer thread of spider web, easily broken by the flip of my hand. JJ was a FA signing admittedly completed because we lost Posey. We still lost KT and Posey and had nothing to show for it.
Ugh, of all threads to start my workweek. Kenny has decent talent, which is to say, he hustles and rebounds, and not a bad scorer. Posey? I'm too lazy to go check his stats, and I know his numbers dipped this year, thanks in part to an injury. He's 6'8", gets out on the break, can shoot the 3 (maybe too often), and great defense. Add in EG and we have a nice list of players lost for nothing. And I won't even mention...well, yes I will....Mirsad Turkcan. That guy just lit the world on fire after we let him go. (dramatic pause) Or Bryce Drew. Or Damn Lanky.
we own the mavs. i'd rather play the mavs. sonics are for real. what's our record against the mavs in the past couple of years? about 50% right? i'd take my changes there.
We could have signed Posey with Bird Rights and signed Jackson with part of the MLE, if Les' pockets were deep enough.
But they weren't, and we didn 't. So, JJax and ultimately Wesley is the end result of KT, the overpaid and undersized but reasonably talented.
