Good sign for Crawford. He likes it here. Nothing on the Blazers(besides Aldridge) worth giving up Jamal for anyway. He's actually playing some defense this year. Not to mention, he's the best pg on the roster, and is finally adapting to the new offense. Wish they were inquiring about Marvin instead.

I think pg is just as much as a problem as center. Bibby cant penetrate, and he cant play defense. Teague can penetrate, play pretty good defense, but he cant shoot. We need a pg who can play defense, penetrate, and shoot. Just a pg and center away from being ELITE with that lineup.

He does both. What games have you been watching? Drew said he can live with the jumpers, as long as he keeps bringing the intensity and playing good defense. And the guy worked on his shot this summer. If you dont see the improvement, you must be blind. Why do you think LD told him to lose some weight? WAY better than Marvin is at sf. It also moves Horford to pf. With JJ at the 2, Josh at the 3, and Al at the 4, we're a pg and a center away from being ELITE. Btw, this move also moves Marvin to the bench where he belongs. And remember Josh was a sf as a rookie, till Woody decided to start playing players out of position. Drafting Marvin messed everything up.

Nobody's trading for Marvin. Not gonna happen. 7 mill a year for what Damien Wilkins can do for the minimum? Please. And to make things worse, Sund gave this guy a player option for the 4th year. Sund must've been on that good stuff.

Duhon over Bibby? Smoove for Gortat? Glad your're not the GM.

Yeah, Woody woulda told Joe to dribble down to the last sec and either pass it out to Josh Smith in the corner or take one of those late game contested floaters that almost never go in.

Mo is less.

Dont forget about Zaza.

Um, we need a defensive minded 3 on this team. We've got enough sg's.(Mo Evans is a sg also btw) No knock against Crawford at all here. H's time will come when Jamal or Mo leaves. I love the signing.

What about Pau Gasol? We gave him away for Sharif for crying out loud. To make things worse, we got had by Billy Knight, who was the Grizzlies GM at the time.

Exactly.

Guess you dont think his assists, rebounds, and being the teams best man on man defender, had anything to do with those 12 wins, huh? Agreed.

Agreed. JJ keeps his body in tip top shape. And btw, it takes time to get adjusted to playing without the ball in your hands. Look at Lebron and Wade in Miami. Players that have ALWAYS dominated the ball on offense have to adjust. You need to calm down man. Not to mention he was still our best man on man defender with a freakin catchers mit on his hand.

Joe said his elbow had been bothering him since last year. So why didnt he have it evaluated in the off-season? Didnt have anything to do with gettin paid 1st, did it?

lol !And Rick Sund gave this guy a 20 mill$ contract. lol! He's the only player that played tonight but DIDNT contribute. Mike Conley is much improved in his 3rd year. Shouldnt we afford Teague at least that much time, or more? Considering Conley was a lottery pick, and Teague was rated as the 7th best pg.

We've won many games with him shooting 4-16, because he's still been our best assists guy and best man to man defender. Wait until you see Bibby and Jamal out there defending on the wings for an extended amount of time. You'll see what I mean. Probably see a lot more of Mo at sg, and Josh Smith at sf.

Your'e right, he's not a bust. He's close, considering he went #2 overall, but he's not even close to Shellhead(Even though we needed a big body who could rebound, and didnt need Roy because we already had Joe). But still. Rudy Gay woulda been nice, but Woody, Dominique, and BK still had high hopes for Marvin. And btw, the only reason Marvin got a raise is because our FO and GM dont know their azzes from a whole in the ground.

Rasheed for Josh Smith never happened. Rasheed was a rental. lol! I'd have to say that Jamal for a bag of fritos has been pretty damn good.

Dont think they'll give up Holiday.

Marvin Williams = a decent role player who makes 8 mill a year. Sund's an idiot. Didnt even let Marvin go on the market before he broke the bank to sign him. Marvin's worth about 4-5 mill per year tops. Must have one helluvan agent. Not saying I dont root for him, because I do. Just sayin.

lol!

Phillys cleaning house. Collins wants to rebuild. How bout Mo and Jamal's expiring contracts and a 1st, for Iggy and Louis Williams? Bibby/JJ/Iggy/Josh/Al Williams/JC2/Marvin/Powell/Twin Teague/Zaza Makes sense for both teams. We need a GOOD backup pg, and more production from the sf spot. They need cap space and draft picks. Then we can use Teague and the TPE for another big. Thing is, will the ASG be willing to pay the rest of Iggy's salary? Thoughts?

lol! Joey Crawford had to hold his clumsy butt up. lol!

Wow! Marvin gets his own thread for playing two good games in a row in 6 years. Congrats Marvin. lol!

Agreed. Marvin and Zaza's contract are the ones that screwing us up. Bibby's too. (even tho he's playing better this year.) Sund didnt even let Marvin and Zaza test the FA waters before he gave them their deals. What's up with that? Nobody in their right minds would offered them what we gave em.
