    Yeah, his post seems quite literal to me. His choice of wording in some situations though.........hmmmm


    He seems excited, maybe something is going down...

    I think Doc Rocket is saying that there's talks of a trade, but TMAC's contract is making it hard for us to pull one off. (Hence, lots of money signs)

    If you noticed, he misspelled one word (publiCALLY). He also mentioned TMac being a GOLDMINE in 2010. I'm thinking Moe's is right, we're talking with the Warriors. When he says we'll only trade TMac for a player we covet, and emphasizes big, this leads me to believe there's a big man and someone else we covet.

    Monta Ellis and Biedrins in a deal involving TMac.

    Jake, baseball slang meaning a lazy player or a half-hearted effort, i.e. "He jaked that play."

    By the way, what's the Fox Mulder getting at? That's gotta have something to do with it...

    I've had it with T Mac, who I just defended yesterday, as I believe he has an injury, but telling ESPN before his coach and teammates is the last straw.

    Screw T Mac lets just do what is best for the team.

    Nice find!

    Could the Rox still have a play in Vince? It seems like that ship has sailed...

    I just hope beyond hope that Tracy is not a Rocket tommorow...
    Who wants to join me in prayer?

    I think I agree with you on this. I know you were asking DD but it's the same question that's bugged me too. This team has had me completely flustered. Usually, I can just follow the team and without much doubt at all point out the problem. With this team you can't really do that.

    Now that the T-Mac 'situation' is a little more clear with regards to the actual team, i'm kind of scared of how we might look without Artest. The alternatives don't look that much more attractive either (Baron or whatever star being shopped with a massive contract). I'm starting to think we should just stand pat with a minor move or two. Maybe a Bobby Jackson-style move (Earl Watson-esque) or something along those lines.

    Doc Rocket made it seem like we're trying really hard to get rid of him...

    Let's hope someone is dumb enough to take him off our hands.

    Would Golden State really do that?

    Can't answer your questions, but there have been many games when McGrady hasn't been on the bench, but has been in the building.

    I don't see why y'all are decrypting this. Its funny. Like a few said, its literal. Goldmine is what it is, a sexy contract to deal next year... Y'all are crazy, how about you guys start analyzing my posts from now on. The winner gets free speakers.

    I'd be wary about Ellis. The pre-draft spec that saw him drop to the second round was character/attitude problems and injuries. Now he has a big contract to go with those issues that have re-surfaced.

    Do we really want Monta Ellis? Or Biedrins?


    Neither really seem like a good fit to me, but hell if it is for Tracy I am always down...
