I think the culture is great as it it, but I still believe we need an upgrade at every position except power forward. I was ready to give up on Teague until this season and was really hyped over Dennis. I still think Dennis is the answer long term. Teague is quicker and more athletic but I believe Dennis has the higher bball IQ, better passing, and decision making skills. Either Korver or DMC could remain a starter at the wing position if paired with an all-star. A player who is an above average passer, can shoot, slash, handle the ball well enough to break down their defender, and defend. I hope we can find this in the draft. I'm looking at Young or Mcdaniels. One of either Milsap or Horford needs to be moved and the other kept at PF. Then we need a true center who can rebound with the big guys, protect the rim, and hit a jumper.

I've saw a clip where he was triple teamed in another game and he caught a jump ball in the endzone. 300+ yards doesn't even seem possible.

Thx everybody. I completely forgot about leaguepass broadband. Now all I have to do is figure out how to watch it on my ps3 and i'm good.

I know this is posted all over the place, but can I get a quick list of the places to get the games streamed. I have Charter and not only do they not get League Pass, they don't even have NBA f***in' TV. The worse f***ing cable ever.

Too bad you don't play in the NFC East. You'd still have a chance.

Stafford always had that arm, even at Georgia. I don't even know what to say about Megatron. That's just embarassing for Cowboys. As a Giants fan I'm glad the Cowboys lost. I can't believe the G-men still have a chance to win the NFC East after starting 0-6.

So I made thread about this guy and then I saw this thread immediately afterward. I decided to make an internet meme for when this happens. I've chosen to say that I, 2 chaaaineed! Huh, any takers. Moving on to Fab. I basically agree with Lethal weapon. He seems like a slightly older version of Bebe: long, athletic, immature, needs development. But he seems to have the weight not to get pushed around so much. He has almost no offensive game but if he can get on the court with schoeder, he'd be nice in the pick and roll. I think his agent will want him to go to a team where he'll get some playing time in the league as opposed to getting sent to the d-league where he spent most of last season. I think he has a chance on this roster and wouldn't mind bringing him in.

Oops. Just saw this topic in around the league. Saw it immediately after i posted this then i thought to myself, why is there no word for this. New topic: create an internet meme for this.

He was waived by the grizzlies yesterday. (Don't know how to link from my phone.)

The Indiana loss last night makes me believe more than ever that you need a superstar to win a title. Lebron and Wade with no Bosh vs. a talented, tough, Indiana team with a 7'2" center. I'm making this trade and never looking back.

A couple a weeks ago I was thinking a S&T of Nash to Utah, AJ to us, Pau to Phoenix, and Josh to LAL. Looking at the numbers though, Pau is pretty damn good. Bynum is looking like a knuckle head and him paired with Josh would probably not be a good thing for the Lakers but that's their problem.

Stan van Gundy. I'm interested in what Brian Shaw can do for a team. He's been assistant on a few good teams.

Breaking! The Atlanta Hawks are in the playoffs again — or were as of this writing — for the fourth consecutive year. Let me back up: The Hawks are a basketball team. A pretty good one, recently. The past three seasons, the team has advanced to the second round of the National Basketball Association's "playoffs." (It's like March Madness, if you've heard of that, but about twice as long and half as exciting.) Championships are the professed goal of NBA basketball teams, and Hawks ownership hasn't quite built a club that can win one. But this playoff run is noteworthy: Only the Boston Celtics and Los Angeles Lakers have also made it to the second round the past three years. I sense that you're something entirely different than shocked: You don't care. The Hawks have won a championship (all right, it was back in 1958, when the team was based in St. Louis) and had some exciting players (Dominique Wilkens, Spud Webb, Josh Smith ... Isaiah Rider, on and off the court). Yet they have the worst fans of any competent NBA team. Sure, until recently the Hawks have been ugly: A team investor, Rutherford Seydel, told me "the '90s were unbearable." I've been watching with one eye closed since I was a masochistic 10-year-old, through the (futile) Weiss, (feckless) Wilkens, (infecund) Kruger, (abortive) Stotts, and (goateed) Woodson days. But the Hawks aren't the truly awful Charlotte Bobcats; they're enjoyable, even supportable now. Yet I've failed, over the past few years, to find a single viable Hawks fan club in Atlanta — or online, where you're supposed to be able to find everything. Some history: In late 2009, I left New Mexico, where I'd been living and paying around $200 a year to get every Hawks game on my TV in Santa Fe. Back in Atlanta, trolling the Web for Hawks fans, I came across a posting for a new club and sent an email. Someone called "Bee Moe" quickly wrote back: "Hey," he said, "you would be the first. Let's see what kind of response we get. I will follow up." Two years and numerous virtual nudges later, no word from Bee Moe. I probed the Internet even deeper. What I found was disturbing — Neuticles.com, Meet-An-Inmate.com, and something called MySpace.com — but the Hawks stuff was sadder. The Web is littered with dead or dying Hawks fan clubs: The last post on Fanpop.com's Hawks page, written more than a year ago, says "this club needs more fans lol"; MingleCity.com's group hasn't had a new post since April of 2009; and SportsTwo.com's page hasn't had an update since 2006! I did find an active group with 2,000 members at Hawksquawk.net, but that's still relatively tiny. You can fit that many yawning fans in the Braves' infield. I'm not saying I did exhaustive research, OK. But should you really have to shake the peach trees of a major American city to find a living, breathing fan club for its pro basketball team? Should you have to grovel to Bee Moe? Surely I could find a bar, at least, where games are rigorously watched. I asked around. Bret LaGree is a playwright and basketball obsessive who runs an excellent Hawks blog called Hoopinion. Recently, I asked LaGree where he watched games: "At home," he said. "Simply getting a Hawks game on a TV" in a bar in East Atlanta, where he lives, "can be an effort." The CNN Center's Taco Mac, he thought, was the best bet. But it's basically attached to the court. I draw a line at joining an "official" Hawks fan club underwritten by the organization itself. There's no soul in being a bribed fan. It's supposed to cost something: sweat, tears, money, relationships, blood. So I'm defiantly not a Hawks "Kia 6th Man," one of the zealous shills cheering in one section, having responded YES! to a website unironically asking, "Do you think you have what it takes to be a part of the MADNESS?" With apologies to Groucho Marx: "I would never want to belong to any club that would have someone like that for a member." http://clatl.com/atl...ent?oid=5356657

They have exactly the same stats. Marvin could do alot if he had a freaky friday type switch with Kevin Durant. WTF.

Al and Josh have pretty much the same stats so changing for a better post player, which is what we need, in exchange for Josh's athelticism is okay. We move Horford to forward. Jefferson played Center for Utah this season. As far as losing Josh's playmaking ability...really. Josh thinks he's Lebron and on fast break is he's not dribbling in a straight line it's basically a disaster waiting to happen.

Don't plan on sleeping. You'll probably feel better by 4am. Watch funny youtube videos.

Huh? At least he starts.

I'm thinking S&T Nash to Utah, Al Jefferson to ATL, Josh Smith to LAL, Paul Gasol to PHO.

I can actually live with us playing the way we played and losing in this game, but we did get royally screwed by the refs.

I would like a three team trade where we get Al Jefferson from Utah and maybe they ship Gortat to Utah.

I don't see anybody trading for Marvin unless he waives his last year player option on his contract which will make him basically an expiring contract. Who in their right mind of going to pay him 15 million over the next two years for what he produces. If he doesn't waive that option he is untradeable.

I thought you were going to say "Cannonball!"

Lol. Joe wasn't the man and we tried to make him a superstar. Didn't work. Marvin didn't start for his college team and we hoped he would be a superstar. Didn't work. Ditto for that other guy in Memphis. Won't work.

Who's trading a great Pg for Teague straight up?

The point is that we are not likely to contend for a title no matter what we do unless we replace someone on our team with a superstar from the current crop or previous ones. If it's from the previous crop we will need a couple of them. Moving Teague for anyone less than Tony Parker, CP3, Deron, or Steve Nash is not going to get us any closer. Ramon Session or Andre Miller may get us to seven games in the semi-finals.
