Kings are looking at a possible blowup. As suspected they are lacking passion and when they run into a championship team that is 0 and 2 on the West coast, you get 45 point routs. Who can we get from Sacremento for Tony Allen, Glen Davis, Brian Scalabrine?

Notes on former B. College star Sean Williams who is deeply pidgeonholed in the big man rotation. Is there any interest around here in Sean Williams?

They also did not match the offer sheet to Nenad Krstic probably because of the big man log jam. Welcome to Oklahoma, Nenad Krstic! We hope you are happy, there!

Knicks looking for a guard? Whats wrong with Stephon Marbury? Can't you get another 3 months of productive stints out of him? Go work out a deal with Sacremento.

Baron Davis made a bad career move. Perhaps he did not accurately calculate the loss of Elton Brand (a misfit in Philly BTW).

Tyson Chandler for Rasheed Wallace. If this deal gets done, that is confirmation that Dumars has pushed the blow it up button. Detriot has fallen back on the EC leaderboard. That Billups for AI deal has not worked out that great. Hint to Dumars -talk to Sacto for a RIP - Kmart deal if you want to pull Detroit out of their basketball recession.

I'm a little surprised that the Pacers are languishing with a 10-20 record. They are a bit of a mess but I think Granger and TJ Ford are two quality NBA players. Perhaps we need to look at the coach, here, Ol' Larry.

Does Billy Ingram get paid to run chats? If so, how do I get that gig?

Ricky Davis having drug problems. That breaks my heart (seriously). He was not exactly a character guy but I did not think he would drop this low.

Mikki Moore is a guy we would probably get from the Kings with the players you mentioned.  Hes a big man we could use, but he makes a lot of money and isnt that skilled of a guy to be getting for the players we'd have to give up.

We got some help from down in Miami.

They beat the Caveliers tonight and looked good in doing so. They ran effectively off the Cavs misses and there were plenty due to good Miami defense. The Cavs are a halfcourt team that basically runs everything through Lebron. Delonte West continues to play well at both ends.
