    Damn, Taj Gibson! Hell Yeah! Git R Done Morey! I rather have him than Hill anyday! My only concern is what we are gonna do with TT? I guess we can use him in another trade?

    we can talk all we want, Morey will deal with NY anyway.

    Demanding a starter in Gibson, Miller and Thomas for a guy who couldn't even get 10 mins in a game and looked terrible while on it ??

    Morey is just an ahole and probably uses the Knicks as a fallback, trying to get the most out of Chicago.

    **** you Morey

    Morey, take time out of your negotiating and take a look at clutchfans.net, and let us be the voice of reason! Trade with the Bulls! Dealing with the Knicks is like dealing with the devil!

    Taj Gibson is the sole reason why Thomas doesn't get much playing time and is riding the bench. Ive seens several of his games and the guy is a stud, pure and simple! He has a nice outside shot and is a excellent shotblocker for a youngster. His post game needs a lil work, but all in all, he has the potential to be better than Vin Baker.

    I have to trust that Morey knows how to meet these guys in the middle, even if the middle is closer to us than to them (Bulls, Knicks). How badly do the teams want Wade and/or Bosh and/or Boozer and/or Joe Johnson? 'Cause Morey is asking for one hell of a lot.

    Honestly, why is Taj Gibson that intriguing? He is an undersized, avg athletic big man. We have enough of those players. I know Hill has more risk than Gibson, but I still say he has a higher ceiling, which given the current Rockets team means you go for Hill.

    7'4 wingspan and 9'1 standing reach, measures 6'9 3/4 in shoes, needs to put on some weight, but a natural shotblocker and rebounder, he's alittle older than TT.

    I'm sure Daryl is doing the best he can for the team. If that is not good enough, oh well there is nothing we can do about it anyway. I dont care what he brings in for Tracy, all i hope is that he or they can bring more wins to our ballclub and not put too much of a financial burden on us. So, with that said, I will just go back to refreshing this GARM every 10 minutes until something happens....

    So he should make a deal for the sake of making a deal? Don't be stupid, if you can help it.

    Trust me. Daryl Morey forgot more today about basketball and running a team than you'll ever know.

    I hope the Fiord report is Walsh just firing back with his bluff, as in I hope the holdup is purely the protection of the picks.

    I hope it's the NY deal.

    Chicago is a bust. That franchise and NY really just bombed after the MJ/Patrick Ewing years.

    NY scouted Jordan Hill well. I think he could be a tremendous asset playing alongside Yao. Rebounding is where we'd improve in a heartball.

    That said, if one COULD dream, I'd love the Rox to do something ANYTHING to get that first pick of 2010 to get JOhn Wall.

    Here in KY, it's just John Wall fever. And let me tell you, he is the REAL deal. It's like watching MJ when he was in UNC.

    I hope the Knicks enjoy overpaying for Rudy Gay and David Lee while the rest of the East loads up.

    As for McGrady, the situation remains as we've been saying all along: it'll go down to the wire. Knicks want to protect those draft picks.
