Talented? are we talking about the same Brian Cook?
You say that like it's nothing. Do we really want another whiner on the bench compaining about playing time when we already have Bonzi, James, and...
Depends on who starts at the two forward spots. If it's Battier and another defensive minded power forward with limited offensive skills (ie....
You have to ask yourself: why would Matt Barnes sign with a team that’s going to play him out of his natural position? With the disastrous...
It’s not that we’re set at the 2. We’re just a whole lot closer to being set there than at the 4 or the 1. Especially when you consider the fact...
A second trade isn't neccessary. The free agent market is loaded with servicable small forwards (Barnes, Pietrus, MoPete, Gerald Wallace, Nocioni,...

Pay him more than he's worth?
3 end-of-bench players (Snyder, Novak, Spanoulis), a guard that can’t dribble (Head), and 2 volatile players that did squat last season (Bonzi,...
Either A or F. I think Adelman’s system calls for 5 legitimate scoring threats to be on the floor at all times and having a defensive minded 4...
Darko wouldn’t be my first choice with the MLE (I’d rather spend it on one of the many quality swingmen available and use Battier/Alston to get a...
If he's capable of guarding the opposing teams best perimeter player regardless of position, where was he when Deron Williams was killing us in...
The problem is on most nights in the Western Conference, the other team’s best scorer is not 2/3 and Battier’s versatility as a defender is not...
I’d say his value is about the same as it was last year, probably not likely to get higher. I think the rumored trade scenario of Jack/Outlaw for...
Hard to say what the Rockets will do with Alston, but an Alston/James combo does not excite me. They’re both average backup point guards over the...
I’m gonna say no. I think Battier will be moved to get us a 4, which will allow Mcgrady to move back to his natural position at the 3, leaving...
Decent trade. Mainly because James’ trade value most likely will go up, whereas Howard’s can only go down. I wouldn’t count on James staying here...
Are you suggesting the team would be better off with Battier as the number 1 option (with Yao and Mcgrady out) than with Artest?
There really aren’t that many great wing players in the Western Conference, so that limits how valuable Battier can be here. You have Kobe Bryant...
Rumors are Portland badly wants Conley Jr. I don’t think it reflects poorly on Jack that Portland would choose Conley over him. Conley is the more...
