Hands down it has to be Joakim Noah. He's big enough to shutdown the bigger centers in the NBA, and he's athletic enough to take SG's and SF's one on one.

The guy just reminds you of Toni Kukoc. To bad.

Probably isn't going to be a superstar at the next level, but he is a good potential 6th man off the bench.

How about them Pelicans?

Probably the most injured sports city of the last 2 years.

@Dolfan23 Sorry I did a double post. You can delete this thread.

He isn't the best at creating his own shot, but his length allows him to be able to put a shot up against opposing players, similar to Kevin Garnett.

Game clip from this week. He dropped 35 points on 14-22 shooting.

What do you guys think about Doug McDermott? He's a natural scorer, and is probably going to be an elite 3 point shooter when he gets to the NBA. The star forward for Creighton is averaging and outstanding 26.8 ppg 7.1 rpg and 1.6 apg (.526 FG % and .460 3P FG %). Not saying that he could be the next Larry Bird (due to poor ball handling and passing ability) but you can certainly see comparisons in their scoring ability. Would he be a worthwile pick for the Hawks? He can potentially play the SF or PF positions in the NBA. He's a ferry guy and you can already plug him in at the starting SF position and watch him easily drop 16 per game.

*Doesn't have a 13-15 win season ^

Consistency is a big thing he can't maintain. He can be your team's best pitcher on some days, but on others he looks like shouldn't even be playing baseball. He's a good strike out pitcher with a very good slider. Seeing as though we have probably the top defense s in the NL, I couldn't see why he has a 13-15 win season with a sub 3.60 ERA and 160+ K's. And I agree McDowell should be able to wonders with him.

Tough blow for Medlen, but do you think the Braves overreacted by signing Earvin Santana? I mean with our loaded pitching staff (including the minors), I would have loved to see one of our young guys get their feet wet in the MLB. Earvin Santana is a career 105-90 with a 4.19 ERA, simply put, a mediocre pitcher. He did have a nice season last year going 9-10 with a 3.24 ERA. Do you like the move?

We have to win a world series within the next 5 years. Possibly even this season if the pitch staff stays consistent, and Upton and Uggla help us in any way offensively.

We need to sign some Harlem Globetrotters if this happens, lol.

How do you know this?

Best thread-title maker ever.

If it weren't for the recent injuries, and the Nets playing good ball of late, I would have wanted us to make the Playoffs. Now, I want us to lose as much as possible. I know we can't control injuries, but sheesh? Almost half the roster is injured!

$$$.

Who was there to trade for? Atleast Danny did something. I would have been just fine if we didn't make a move. Atleast now we can have a mentor to Scott, so he can teach him how to be a good stretch 4.

He spelled his name wrong.

Looks like we got Antawn Jamison...

IF he can stay healthy, then I don't see why he wouldn't be able to get another 20-20 season, and hopefully hit for a higher average (Hoping anywhere between .270 to .290)

Trade all of them within 2 days? Not likely. In fact, it's TOO late.
