Hang on folks, a blockbuster (I keed, I keed)
Told you the Bulls weren't done.
Apparently they're moving Larry Hughes to the Knicks for Tim Thomas and Jerome James!!!!
Snore.
Put that up there with Rashad McCants and Calvin Booth from MInnesota to Sacramento for Shelden Williams and Bobby Brown (whoever he is) and this is rivetting stuff. Seriously.
Who wins in the Knicks-Bulls deal? Can't say no one, right? Well, New York gets another guy who loves to shoot (they don't have nearly enough of them) and they get rid of James' contract ($6.6 million next year) so I guess that makes 'em the winner.
Minnestoa-Sacramento?: I guess I'll declare Minnesota the winner so AP doesn't get mad at me. At least Candace is closer to home now (she's married to WIlliams, in case you missed it).
Now, more nap time.

Less than 2 hours to the deadline and Suck-ill is not a Cav yet?
What gives?

Does the Shaq to Cavs make sense to you Doug?
They already have Z at the 5 spot.. so that would mean one of them would have to come off the bench no? Would they play both at the 4 and 5??? They would be huge!
From Pheonix's point of view.. I think I like this deal.. Big Ben is probably better suited for the (old/new) uptempo style..
Not that this deal will happen.. but thoughts?

Doug, I remember watching Williams play for Duke. Are there any high first-rounders you can recall recently who became strong players, or at least starters, after years of being considered busts?

Doug,
While you were taking 'a nap'... the Raptors just traded Will Solomon to Boston for Patrick O'Bryant. Don't feel too bad about not getting the 'scoop', the Raptors web site have yet to post the trade. The source... Boston Globe.
Blogger's note: Dude, stay over at the Boston Globe and bother Marc, okay? Please. Because it's obvious you can't read anything written on this site for some bizarre reason.
