  1. Suggesting New Uniforms....

    I can rock with it just as long as its red and yellow. I could never understand why we'd switch to a color scheme that countless popular collegiate and pro sports teams use over one that only the Chiefs have and Flames had.

    I agree. WAY too many teams have the red/blue/white scheme. Red/Yellow/Black is the way to go.

  4. Insider Request: Best (and worst) of Vegas

    I'm gonna fork over the money for ESPN Insider someday.

    I've had ESPNinsider for like 5 or 6 years now. Best way to do it is this: Subscribe to ESPN the Mag and you get insider access for free. DiscountMags.com runs specials on ESPN the Mag frequently, I got 4 year subscription for 5 bucks a year from their last deal. Can't beat it.

    Teague/Schro

    Jenkins/Lou

    Korver/DMC/Scott

    Millsap/Scott/Muscala

    Horford/Brand/BeBe?

    >>>>

    Teague/Mack

    Devin(hurt)/Lou(hurt)

    KK/(Deshawn(hurt/sucks)

    Josh(Brickhouse Shawty)/Ivan

    Horf/Zaza(hurt)

    I agree. Now that I saw Brand played center last year, I don't mind it. I would also like to bring BeBe in as our 3rd center and let him hit the weights in the states and learn the system. Brand is definitely better than Zaza, I know he was a friend favorite but he was never that good.

    I also think Schröder is going to eat backup PG's alive. How many teams have legit backup PGs?

  19. Merged: USA Today Sports : Rockets want both Howard and Smoove

    in Homecourt

    Posted · Edited by CJB

    When you say this years pick do you mean 2013 or 2014? If it's 2013 then yes they can give us their 2014. A team can trade every single 1st round pick they have, as long as they do it 1 year at a time and they do it after the draft has happened for that year, which resets the calendar on trading future picks.

    Right now they could trade us their 2014 and 2016, but couldn't trade us their 2014 and 2015.

    Ok, so Asik/young PF/ 14 and 16 firsts for Smith.

    Dwight

    J.Smith

    Parsons

    Harden

    Lin

    That still doesn't win the 'Ship or even the West.

    Bottom line is it's MUCH smarter for us to get something in return for Smith than just to let him walk.

    I'd rather have Asik than Jefferson. Plus we'd be getting MULTIPLE assets from a Josh SnT. Get Asik (8 mil a year against the cap for 2 seasons is a bargain), a young PF (Terrance Jones or Donatas Motiejūnas) and as many draft picks as you can from them. How you rebuild is turning an asset (Josh Smith) into multiple assets. Plus I don't think Houston would be that great with a front line of Dwight and Josh.

  22. ESPN: Eastern Conference Power Moves

    in Homecourt

    Here's the Hawks:

    Current projection: 28-54 (26th in NBA) | Playoff/Title odds: 0%/0% | 5-year WARP: 99.0 (11th)
    What their approach appears to be: Developing
    What their approach should be: Developing
    Plan of action: The Hawks probably held onto their second-round-upside core for too long, but GM Danny Ferry pushed Atlanta off that treadmill by unloading Joe Johnsonon Brooklyn last summer. Now he's doing his due diligence by meeting with hometown heroDwight Howard, but with that acquisition unlikely and Chris Paul off the board, Ferry would do well to bank his cap space for next season's talent-rich summer.

    What Ferry must avoid is latching onto next-level free agents in order to save face after missing the home run signing. It's a good time to develop Dennis Schröder, Lucas Nogueira and John Jenkins. The question is whether franchise stalwart Al Horford would be willing to wait out a full-on rebuild. The Hawks would have no shortage of suitors if he were made available.

    Power move: With Howard and Paul off the table, Ferry lets Smith walk and deals Horford to Cleveland for Tristan Thompson and Tyler Zeller.

    ****************

    One thing, IF we traded Al (we won't), we better get more than that for him!
