I apologize. I should have been more clear. When I say "proven winner", I mean "somebody who's actually won something". When I say "proven loser",...
I'm all for swapping a proven loser like Battier for a proven winner like Jackson, but how about we stick to discussing trades the other team...
I love the way people just casually add/subtract an inch or two from player's heights, just to make their arguments sound better. Charles Barkley...
You've got it completely backwards. More playing time doesn't lead to improved PER, improved PER leads to more playing time. It's that whole cause...
Since when does increased minutes = higher PER? If anything, increased minutes = lower PER.
I'm going to assume you're referring to the McGrady for Iguodala and Dalembert trade. In which case, that's the dumbest **** I ever heard. "If...
I say we track down Michael Dickerson, wherever the hell he is. Dude's a 15 ppg scorer for his career, and a 40% shooter from three. Don't tell me...
Last season, when Yao was on the court, we gave up 103.1 points per 100 possessions. When Yao wasn't on the court, we gave up 108.5 points per 100...
McGrady's career averages vs. Artest 40.3 minutes 24.9 points 6.8 assists 3.3 turnovers 41.8 FG% 35.6 3P% 70.7 FT% .458 eFG% .502 TS%...

That's the problem though. We know Battier's production is going to decline, just like it has each of the last 4-5 seasons. Ariza's production...
But that's the exact same type of logic Battier-lovers always use. When comparing Battier to a player with less playoff success (somebody like...
I love your use of the term "full price". Full price according to whom? If nobody is willing to pay more than x amount of money for Battier, then...
How can people be so offended by the notion that we'll be worse this year? Out of our top 6 scorers from last season: #1 - out for the year #2...
I thought he was already the smartest, best prepared, most winnerest player in the league. Does he have any room to improve his intangibles? I'm a...
...except Artest's "record" last year was better than Battier's. During the regular season, Artest's plus/minus per 100 possessions was +6.8,...
Ah, the "value to a contending team" canard...like Battier has this vast wealth of experience winning in the playoffs... 14 of the 30 current...
Watch yourself...
Battier's efficiency numbers haven't changed that much, but his usage rate has been on a steady decline basically since his rookie year. In...
