With just days to go to the NBA trading deadline...

Don't see what the trading Bonzi talk is all about, especially when not one valuable name is mentioned with it. The only person to be traded on this team is Bob Sura. I wouldn't mind throwing JL3 or Vspan in there if we get a shot at Brevin Knight. Atkins would be nice to have also.

 

Anything other than V-Span...at some point this team needs to develop some young players......

NO, luther is better.

 

If they offer James and McCants for Head....I am all over it.

Dickau has always impressed me, he would be a great addition.

 

Maybe he could come in here and bring a spark like Blake did in Denver.

 

r****ded

 

Is that a joke?

 

ROFL. Thanks for making my morning. Just got off a 26hr shift. and I have another tomorow morn. Blah.

 

I'm just saying I wouldn't give up Luther for him.

 

Clutch I wish CD or JVG could read your posts somehow.

 

mike james??no way..

 

And that's why we need him. Because Tmac is the playmaking Point guard. And our PG is expected to be a shoot first type of player when he catches passes from our PG in Tmac.

When are people going to realize that on JVG's Rockets squad, with Tmac, that the PG position is nothing more than a secondary "shooting guard" position (that requires the player to be a good ball handler). That's what it is.

And the reason Rafer takes as many shots as he does is because that's what the offense dictates as Clutch eluded to above. That's what happens when Tmac gets doubled and he has to pass it out.

This team has TWO guys JVG trusts to take people off the dribble. Tmac and Rafer. Now, taking the "playmaking" duties out of Rafer's hands which player do you want to be shooting 3ptrs (sometimes on the move) or driving to the basket for shots. Mike James or Rafer Alston? That's really what it boils down to.

 

...and the sarcasm went un-noticed...

 

Is that sarcasm cooking in the oven that I smell?

 

By that logic, Luther Head would be our dream staring pg. He can handle the rock, and he can shoot the lights out from three, right? We already have a better MJ in Luther Head.

 

Rafer almost single handedly managed to lose the Dallas game with his inability as the point guard to set up the offense in crunch time and make sure McGrady gets the ball. That was completely inexcusable.

This team can win it all. I do not want a repeat of '97 where arrogance prevented us from acquiring Kevin Johnson or Derek Harper and we entered the postseason with Matt Maloney and Sedale Threatt as our point guards. I still firmly believe it was the decision to stand pat with that backcourt which kept us from the title that year. Don't make the same mistake again.

Re: Mike James and these ridiculous accusations of he and McGrady allegedly "feuding" - I thought we already put that nonsense to rest in the offseason? Is he Steve Nash? No. But he can hit an open shot and will willingly take it to the basket, something T-Mac was screaming for ANYONE to do the other night.
