Odom to DAL? I don't know what I should think about it as a Mavs Fan. Sure Odom is a awesome Player and can play 3/4 - but I hope LAL doesn't get CP3 and Dwight now :o

I wouldn't say Garnett came into the league ahead of where Dwight is now. He had many solid years of Kevin McHale one on one instruction.


Mchale gave Garnett a jumpshot, low post offense and defensive ability to guard perimeter players as a near 7-footer?


Definitely low post.



http://bleacherreport.com/articles/9544-timberwolves-in-training-al-jefferson-mentored-by-hall-of-famer

McHale's been mentioned over and over for putting in hours teaching the low post.


Yes but did Mchale turn a raw Garnett into a low post player, or did Garnett already have that ability and McHale tutored him? When KG came into the league his offense wasn't polished but he was miles ahead of Dwight Howard in post game ability. He already had pretty good footwork even as a rookie.

I guess they wanted to replace Chandler ASAP and Odom was pretty much a good bet to want to get away from LA given what he's been saying over the last two days.

Yea something is really going on over in LA. I think this means Pau+Bynum are going to get moved to Orlando for Dwight now.

Curse you LA for possibly killing the fantasy of Dwill/D12 in Brooklyn.

LA can't trade Bynum+Pau for Hedo + Dwight + TPE. Hedo's contract is too big. But they might send Jason Richardson too.

Orlando of course would be better served by dealing with The Nets so they can rebuild.

Pau+Bynum+Picks for Dwight(+Hedo) would be a great deal for Orlando. And LAL wouldn't be competetive with Dwight and a bad Kobe. But a good thing is: LAL can't get CP3 + D12 without Odom now.

What the fuck is going on lol O_O:; I think the CP3 trade wasn't the best deal for LA but it gets them something nice. Giving up Odom for a $9 million trade exception is fucking stupid because CP3 / Howard will likely sign extensions wherever they end up (unless CP3 ends up with the Clippers).

Wtf are they going to do with the trade exception?

They've got put in such a shitty situation because it seems like they 100% have to trade Odom now because he's mentally fucked out of LA.

O________O mind == blown

And also if they give up Gasol / Bynum for Howard they've lost their entire front line to get Dwight... They're left with no backups for him, no pg, and a fat-ass Artest + Kobe. That's actually a pretty bad team. I feel bad for Mike Brown. Bynum + CP3 + Kobe is much better than whatever amalgamation of a team they're gonna get if they ship over Gasol/Bynum for Howard.

FUCK

As likely the only lifetime Rockets fan on this board(since I was 7yr old), even though I don't really talk sports here, I do enjoy being able to use profanities here. I don't care if I get temp banned or even permanently banned. Because right now I'm feeling like crap. And I need to relieve some pressure.

So I just want to say FUCK YOU DAVID STERN. FUCK YOU! And in lower case, Fuck you Mark Cuban. Fuck you Dan Gilbert. Fuck the NBA for screwing the Houston Rockets despite them not doing a single damn thing wrong, despite them not even getting a superstar, despite them being only an innocent bystander in an otherwise pussy fight between owners. The Houston management basically said this trade-veto set the team back three years. Glad you guys are happy now that Dwight Howard will go to the Lakers instead of CP3.

That is all.

The veto was great for the rockets, because the rockets lost their best 2 players and only got Pau Gasol! The trade was completly retarded by the Rockets GM. Scola and Martin +Free Agent Center and they are good for the playoffs.

The more you think about it, the better it would be for Howard to pick the Nets, D Will is young, D12 will be the facto star in Brooklyn whereas Kobe is getting old

Sure he would contend for a title the next year or 2 but with the Nets he could be a part of massive franchise...and likely be in a Jay-Z video, Big Pimpin (remix)

D12 to the Nets wasn't something I expected.. Obviously they'll do well with D-Will & Howard, but is the supporting cast around them good enough to take the team to a EFC or a finals?

Also really excited to see how the Bulls chase for Rip Hamilton progresses, even though Bogans is a good defender, 4,3ppg doesn't cut it for a starting 2 spot.. Can't wait for the opening games, sooooo excited!
