Both of those guys were on the block for me...I believed in both of them but come midnight Jawai was going to go for sure, and CJ Watson probably as well, I just didn't see the fit on my team and I already had 3 pg's on retainer with Randy Livingston bringing up the back, and I like his experience and drive over Watson's shooting.

Only thing is your kind of like the real C's, without a true backup pg now. Couple combo guards. If Rondo is out a few games...

Nate Robinson and Randy Livingston are both better true PG's than House of Pruitt. I mean yeah, I don't have Kenny Anderson in the backcourt ready to scoop up mins, but Randy Livingston and Nasty Nate are both hungry and able to do the job.

There's always Mo Williams.

Except less likely to kill you and more likely to help you make a conference Championship.

aaaaa the days of kenny anderson

I thought about picking up Kenny, then I settled on John Bagley, but there was some 60 days in the news rule, so no Bags in Chicago.

Yeah, it's a little surprising that neither you, nor CFF, had much luck getting value for Williams.  Most people would much rather have Steve Blake, for instance.

Has Mo Williams officially become as devalued a commodity as Allen Iverson and Tracy McGrady?

They made the Finals with Boobie ;)  Ok I'll stop. You never know when I might catch the Mo and regret saying stuff.

Which, in all honesty, is dumb.

I value him, which is part of my trouble, having a difficult time getting fair value.

I think it depends on what you want. people don't want Mo starting, then they don't want to pay starters money for a backup. At least that's how I thought about it.

Yeah, but you had Rondo, which was fine. But there are players out there that are not Mo's calibre who people are refusing to trade for him. I'm fine with having the best back up point in the league, I just can't fathom some of the trades that have been turned down as well as some of the one's I've been offered.

It's official.  Gerald's trade value is pooh.
