Elden Campbell can do the job at the center position They have Magloire and Brown, so maybe they'll be willing to give Campbell away for RATLIFF. Ratliff does have more value than Campbell, so im thinking we doing them a favor. Then we add KUKOC and they give us MASHBURN. We are now: PG- Terry, 2nd Rounder, Email SG- Mashburn, Johnson, Glover SF- Newble/Johnson, Crawford PF- Abdur-Rahim, Henderson, Smith C- Campbell, Mohammed Campbell is good blocker and decent rebounder and SAR is a good rebounder and decent blocker. Both compliment each other well. Ranks #19 in the NBA in Blocks Per Game(1.78) Ranks #19 in the NBA in Free Throws(306.0) Ranks #16 in the NBA in Blocks(137.0) Ranks #11 in the NBA in Free Throws Per 48 Minutes(6.81) Ranks #14 in the NBA in Free Throw Attempts Per 48 Minutes(8.55) Ranks #18 in the NBA in Blocks Per 48 Minutes(3.05) We are very solid at CENTER (mohammed is a very good backup C), allstar at PF (with veteran and potential on bench), defensively strong at SF, very good shooter at SG, and a rising allstar at PG... wat u guys think?

I've always been told "try to win this game knowing the opponent will cheat." if u are TRULY and CLEARLY BETTER, u could beat any team no matter how much the calls go favoring the other team (to a degree of course... but if it goes too far, im sure the crowd will respond in ways NBA would hate). I was one of those people EXTREMELY MAD during the SAC/LA series because of the officiating. I felt like SAC got played. SAC had valid points about the bad refs, but thats now in the past. I DONT LIKE how they are complaining about it DURING THE FINALS... nothing u say, will not help ur team at all. Im not complaining about it anymore... Even with some bad calls, SAC had opportunities to close out the game. Game 7 should have never existed.. SAC missed too many KEY SHOTS when it came down to the wire in GAME 6. And in GAME 7, too many BRICKS. I like how BIBBY STEPPED UP, but why couldnt WEBBER be the TO GO guy during the last minutes?

Went through 8 rounds. Tyson came up to the ring first with DMX music. Lewis came up to the ring second with like JAMACIAN music (not the type of HYPE music u want to hear b4 a match). For the first couple rounds, all the two did was HUGE each other. Lewis has such a long REACH, tyson couldnt do much. Lewis' Jabs gave TYSON one cut near the right eye, and a second near his second eye. This was COMPLETE dominanting match. Its like ONEAL vs ANY CENTER. Oneal being LEWIS of course. I like what happened after the fight. Lewis starts by saying something like "Tyson gave a good fight, i gave him some strong hits.. and he took them." and tyson responded like "Lewis is very good, hes the best boxer in the world. Hes a good friend of mine, ive known him since he was 16.... All the REMARKS/ACTIONS before the match was ONLY FOR PROMOTION. I love the guy..." it was kinda one sided throughout the fight. I loved tysons SPORTMANSHIP after the fight... - translated by hawksfan1, sorry.. but those arent the exact words.

I want to try to get a GOOD BACKUP for terry. Someone we can depend on. IMO- no offense to EMAIL, but hes a 3rd string PG in this league.

The guard from ST. JOHNS Not a bad basketball program there. 6'1" 180lbs NBADRAFT compares him to JASON KIDD. He can push the ball up the court for the limited minutes hes getting behind JASON TERRY.

Not the same MJ of WASHINGTON WIZARD. (hes not the same, still good... but a step slower). But when u come to dominating, yea... they both had the same effect. For MJ- the best SG/SF defender of the opposite team would try their best and fail. Keep him at 20-30 and u did a GOOD JOB. For SHAQ- the best PF/C defender of the opposite team would try their best and fail. Keep him at 20-30 and u did a GOOD JOB. COUPLE DIFFERENCES 1) MJ was a CLUTCH player, but we didnt get to see any CLUTCH shots by SHAQ in the finals (thus far). 2) MJ won more rings (Shaq has potential to catch up with Mike) 3) there were better SG/SF defenders guarding MJ than PF/C guarding SHAQ. Get a PRIME OLAJUWAN, MUTOMBO, ROBINSON and i think they can somewhat maintain SHAQ. Rite now in the NBA, centers lack defense.

Prediction LAKERS in 5! I dont think the LAKERS are trying their best. I think the LAKERS can still pull it off if BRYANT and ONEAL took turns playing (Game 3 = Bryant, Game 4 = Oneal, Game 5 = Bryant, etc.) If Jackson wants to disrespect the Nets, he could probably sit out BRYANT + ONEAL from the starting lineup and use then in the 2nd half and still win the game. Nets have no chance... ALL THEIR CENTERS are scared of SHAQ, but i do find COLLINS working his butt off to face him straight up.

When u add a POST, theres always that option at the botton checked at default ("I WANT TO PREVIEW MY POST"). I think its kinda annoying and think it should be set OFF as default. But if the majority uses it and needs it, then thats fine... im not going to stop posting for a stupid reason like this :)

Tyson vs Lewis is going to be one heck of a boxing match. U guys are going to watch it, rite?

"JT/Slim/Hill/SAR/2heads... would be a hard 5 to beat" - if Hill is healthy. If not, then we go down again and miss the playoffs. Hill's condition scares me more than RATLIFFS. When Hill was playing, he was the BEST SF (hands down, no competition) in the league. He had a better chance making a TRIPLE DOUBLE than JASON KIDD. Now, i dont know DIESEL. If im convinced that HILL is healthy for sure, then LETS DO IT! BTW- when is DUNCAN a free agent again? 1 HOLE with ur trade: Ratliff for Hill- u made it clear that the two is a fair trade since both are questionable. Henderson and E-DUMP are 2 players we are willing to give to any team for free. Hunter and Garrity are two players MAGIC are NOT WILLING TO GIVE ANY TEAM FOR FREE. So i think HENDO + EDUMP for HUNTER (bright future) + GARRITY is unfair for MAGIC. just my 2 cents
