  1. Utah wouldn't even consider this trade.
  2. I wouldn't mind Atlanta trading for him and seeing what he can offer our team for the rest of the season. He's going to become a free agent at seasons end, so I don't see it hurting us greatly by adding him, and I think his size can only help our team. Sure, he lacks hardcore defense, but maybe he could really use a the change. Now to the business part of things: I said I wouldn't mind the Hawks trading for him, but it would depend on what we were to give up, and I would hope for us to land some draft picks. If we could land future or current T-Wolves draft choices I would be all for trading Al Harrington for him.
  3. Quote: IMO, if the Pistons are going to move Darko, they'll do it this year at the trading deadline, because they've got to give big raises to Tayshaun and Big Ben next year. (If they wait until next year, they won't save any $, so they'll be no point). Do you think they'll trade him? With your the caliber team that the Pistons are you have to watch who you trade away and Darko is among the fan favorites for Piston fans. I don't see them trading the unhappy Darko, but I think it would be best for his career, and I hope it happens for him. I wouldn't mind seeing him play for the Hawks, actually. Also I don't think Prince will command a high amount of money and Big Ben will most likely command around 12 - 13 million a year.
  4. The game against the Pistons tonight was a prime example of why we need to trade Al Harrington. The rebounds he ended up with were majority sloppy playing during the first quarter, and Al lacked getting the rest of the team involved. He didn't look for the pass and it really caused his teammates to have poor games.
  5. I've yet to see it, but a couple of family members said it wasn't worth watching, and when the two of them say that it's normally worth watching. I may check it out soon.
  6. I loved watching Francis during his college years and still like watching him play. Seems like he's yet to fit well on any NBA team he's played for and I question how well he would help the Hawks. He would be able to score as always, but I don't fully trust his defense.
  7. No, but I actually think they have a bright future, and I can't believe I would ever say that.
  8. Is commentary is decent, but it's still growing, and I think we will see more of him. During the McDonald's slam dunk contest he was part of the commentary and I didn't mean hearing him.
  9. I voted 7-8 or less....I was looking at the "less"......we don't need players that can't play defense.
  10. Quote: It just shows that Isiah is a horrible GM. Exactly, Thomas never in my eyes helped the Knicks, and I can't believe he still has the job. I don't think he would have the job this long, if his name wasn't Isiah Thomas, and I hope the gets fired after this season. He did take on a team with a bloated salary and players that weren't worthy of their salary, but still he's caused more issues for the Knicks, and their future. I don't feel sorry for Knick fans, but I would hate to be them, and they currently don't have a better future than us. (Some would argue that)
  11. I will agree with Al Harrington, but I disagree about ZaZa, because frankly if you watch the games you will notice how poor our front court defense is. Our guards aren't stopping the drives and it's putting all the pressure on our 3, 4 and 5. ZaZa is trying to stop the drive, but the opponent is dumping the ball around him, and it's allowing for easy baskets. ZaZa needs help and at the price we scored him at was a bargain. Also, it's not like Billy Knight is expecting ZaZa to be our starting center for the future, because he's already stated that he's looking for bigs, but I'm happy to know ZaZa is an above average backup center.
  12. We would be stupid as a team to give Al Harrington a max contract and he's only holding back our promising players (Josh Smith/Marvin Williams). It just wouldn't be a wise thing to even attempt to resign Al Harrington, because how I see it he doesn't play steelier defense, and doesn't fully represent a power forward like one should be. We really don't need Al Harrington, so why can't you see this?
  13. I think the action scene were just fine and during the stampede they would have run from the Raptors. The Raptors hunt in packs for the most part and normally take down the bigger dinosaurs from their neck. When it came to the T-Rex I did have some issues, because many times it bit right down on Kong's arm/elbow. The T-Rex would have caused more damage, if not breaking Kong's arm, and that's one of the two problems I have with the movie. When it came to the length I think it was fine also, but it depends on the person, and passionates. I don't see why it would be any shorter, because if you think of all it consist of it makes sense why it would be over 3 hours long. The second problem I have with the movie is there was no voyage back to the city, because one wasn't created, and the least thing I think they should have done was shown Kong tided up on the boat from a long distance over head shot. Overall it was outstanding.
  14. For the most part it depends on the system he ends up with, but I don't see him having a brighter future than his brother. What you have to think about is the missing pieces Mike has with the lack of an offensive line, young receivers, and when those are fixed he's going to be deadly.
  15. Quote: Dang, Wisconsin beat UGA... Wisconsin beat Aubrun
  16. UGA had the offense to get past the #8 ranked defense, but our own defense didn't come to play, and it hurt our team. We knew what we would be dealing with, but we still allowed them to defeat us with the run, and it hurts to know we couldn't come away with the win.
  17. Quote: I doubt that Zeke would trade Frye, but I think your right in one respect; if any team would be dumb enough to take on Marbury's contract, it would be a Babcock led team. I don't even think Babcock would be dumb enough to take on Marbury's contract, because after this season the Raptors only have to deal with Rose for one more season, and they will be free of $16,901,500. The Raptors will have a bright future, if the Babcock's stick to their current plan, because they are doing quite well with players, and will have a ton of money to spend.
  18. Diesel, The fact is Blake isn't that great of a point guard and we currently have guards that are at the same level of play. I would prefer Blake over most of our guards, but I stick to what I wrote in my precious post which was the following. but now I would like to see Billy Knight ship some of the current guards out first, and not add more until it happens. I'm sick of seeing these guards that aren't stable enough to keep around or waste our time with. If the Hawks want to build a good future for the team BK will need to understand that the current guards aren't worth keeping around. Are you content with having guards like Tony Delk, Tyronn Lue, Donta Smith, and Royal Ivey? Out of those names the only one that is worth anything to our team is Tyronn Lue and he's still a just above average guard. Donta Smith knows how to score, but we all know his future won't last much longer with the Hawks, Tony Delk will be gone after the season, and still Ivey doesn't have a strong future as an NBA player. I'm stick of just getting by with mediocre. So, Billy Knight needs to focus on dumping some of the current players on this roster before he acquires anymore mediocre guards, and start building the foundation of guards better. Billy Knight has started to build the foundation with drafting Salim Stoudamire and signing Joe Johnson. Steve Blake's contract status: (Current Season)$1,000,000 $1,080,000
  19. I would be very surprised if the Knicks traded Frye, but I think the chances of Q-Rich being traded are high, and Q-Rich can possible be gone by the trade deadline.
  20. Al Harrington has been taking smart 3 point shots, but I still wouldn't put the final shot into his hands from deep, and I just don't see how it would be a wise move. Glad to see Al has added the deep ball to his game.
  21. Quote: BK would not have trade for Maggette just to trade Maggette again? Maggette's Agent would have never gone for this. The Hawks would be the most hated franchise in the game (by FAs). I think you have to look at what value BK is placing on the young guns. I think BK would do just that by putting Cory into the future plans and seeking a trade down the road. Hawk fan have the value for Al Harrington too high and think they will get a high return for him. BK could only be so lucky to get Ron Artest or Cory for Al Harrington. I'm not expecting big things for Al Harrington, but I can dream like the rest of the Hawk fans, and at the end of the day I'm a realists. If the Clippers agreed to trade Maggette (which I don't think they will trade him) BK would seek better options for the team and Maggette. BK's not the type of GM to trade anyone to a place they don't want to be and he would consider the best interest of Maggette's. Anyways, the Clippers won't trade Maggette, so it's not likely to happen, and BK needs to focus on moving some of our young guns
  22. BK may of just wanted to deal to turn around and trade Maggette during the future. I still some are expecting more for Al Harrington than he's worthy of due to him being a free agent at the end of the season. The only reason big names are being thrown around is due to the Ron Artest issues.
  23. The movie is amazing and the money was well spent. It's rare for me to attend the movies that first come out due to the prices of movies theses days. I will normally wait for the movies to go to the dollar movies. I use to see all the movies that would come out the week they arrived, but I noticed how much money I was starting to waste. EVERYONE should see Kong.
  24. I'm going to wait for 2K6 to go down in price before I buy it. I passed on buying a brand new NBA game this year, but it's not likely for the price to drop for the 360
  25. I would be all for seeing him shipped out of Atlanta.
