shock

can someone post the chad ford article please

look at the hawks a few years ago

i thought salim would have at least made the honorable mention.

there is an article about it in the AJC

i dont know how many of you guys read bill simmons' columns on espn.com, but they are always hilarious. I was reading his quote of the day page, and as i scrolled down i saw this...

"I'm always trying to see what the joke is, so I miss the play that's called and I've got to ask a teammate."

-- Joe Johnson on the Phoenix's gorilla mascot

nah, we'll have salim taking 50 attempts a game.

in no particular order....

Heat, Cavs, Bulls, Wiz, Pacers, Pistons, Nets and i think the Bucks will beat out the Celtics for the 8th spot.

now that the miami job is sexy again, looks like pat wants to coach again, not sure what this means for SVG.

where is harold minor?

how can you people leave out tony parker and mike bibby.

i couldnt agree more. not only is marvin quicker than smoove, he is a better passer and dribbler

sj isnt really a pg. hes more of a jason terry with a better 3pt shot.

i think that is just wishful thinking. its hard to comprehend a number 2 pick with all the hype not getting any playing time. larry brown obviously knows something we dont, so we have to assume that darko is a bust. the only way to prove otherwise is to get more playing time as you stated.

"Darko is really one of a kind. He runs the floor, handles the ball, shoots an NBA three and plays with his back to the basket. So you can slot him at the 3, 4 or 5. Okay, a few other guys can do that, too, but what sets Darko apart is his toughness in the post ... Fact is, Darko plays in attack mode at both ends of the floor. The more you push, the more he pushes back."

-- ESPN's Chad Ford on NBA Draft prospect Darko Milicic, in the June 23rd, 2003 issue of ESPN the Magazine

would the kings be willing to part with mike bibby half way through the season if they arent playing well? realgm accepted the trade of harrington/diaw for bibby.

portland trades pick 3 to utah for pick 6, 27, and a 2006 1st rounder from detroit

i remember when babcock was the general manager, he would actually write you back personally. i wrote him several times over the years and he always would reply within a day or two.

.....roshown mcleod? ed gray?

in my opinion the guy was ready to play when he graduated from maryland. he was a fantastic player there. his outside shot and overall play is what made joe smith look so good.

Jorge Sosa should be promoted to the closer spot.

why did Woody start Peja over Googs? That made absolutley no sense.

apparently lebron was upset last year with the NBA for getting snubbed as an Eastern Conf. reserve. I think he is still making them pay for it by waiting to the last minute to decide this year.....and dont look for him to accept the invitation

Does anyone owe the Hawks a draft pick this year because of a previous trade?
