Kevin Martin to the Wolves

wonder how face is going to put a negative spin on them adding such a great scorer

7/2/2013 9:47:23 PM

Youre correct tree. Martin doesn't have much value and they overpaid. If this causes them to lose kirilenko they are a fringe playoff team again. Huge mistake

Stunned by that. Very weird timing, too.

7/3/2013 5:47:49 PM

Yeah really surprising. Figured he would be the shoein to replace k at Duke in a few years. Not to say that can't happen but you probably wouldn't jump to the NBA if you were planning on that.

7/3/2013 5:48:13 PM

good news, for now, he's not going to UNC* or Duke!

7/3/2013 5:50:30 PM

wow

legitimitately yelled "WHOA" when I read the news

7/3/2013 5:51:13 PM

Terrible hire

7/3/2013 5:53:55 PM

how?

7/3/2013 5:55:55 PM

now we just need to line our gottfried fire up with his celtics fire and we're in business.

so he'll bomb with the celtics, then go coach duke right?

7/3/2013 6:11:21 PM

Paul Pierce is not walking through that door, fans. Kevin Garnett is not walking through that door. and Ray Allen is not walking through that door.

7/3/2013 6:25:39 PM

^^

I expect him to do poorly, just in time for coach k to retire after 2014-15, and come back to coach duke

7/3/2013 7:45:44 PM

I didn't read the thread, but did you guys hear Brad Stevens is the new Celtics coach??

7/3/2013 10:08:32 PM

I don't know if you guys heard but brad Stevens is the new celtics
Coach. Excellent move for stevens .better than UCLA

7/3/2013 10:35:35 PM

Warriors send 3 expiring deals (Biedrins, Jefferson & Rush) with draft picks to the Jazz for a scrub on a non-guaranteed contract, allowing the Warriors to sign Iguodala

Warriors still in play for Dwight too

7/5/2013 4:31:08 PM

7/5/2013 5:04:08 PM

that pretty much settles the debate that MJ was the best of the 3

7/5/2013 5:07:10 PM

How?

7/5/2013 5:12:39 PM

166 more games and 195 more games

let's look at MJ's numbers through his 760th game

and he was by far the best defender out of the 3....and had by far the best FG%

7/5/2013 5:23:47 PM

after Jordan's 766th game:

24,489 points
2,025 steals
739 blocks
4,377 assists
4,879 rebounds
414 3PT made
3 rings
3 finals MVP
3 MVP
1 bachelors degree

guys, Houston will win the west. Just like lakers last year. LOL

7/5/2013 7:08:07 PM

nah, he was already 4 years removed from Chapel Hill. definitely more legit than any on-campus diploma

7/5/2013 7:11:44 PM

I believe strongly that Kobe killed this deal. he maybe a closer on the court but when it comes to people...hell no

I know Kobe was eyeballing that dude in that meeting and then asking Dwight every few minutes, " what are you looking at?"

lol

7/5/2013 7:19:34 PM

Dickhead Howard going to the Rockets #sources

7/5/2013 7:58:40 PM

Wonder if the Warriors can work out a way to get asik.

thompson
curry
iggy
lee
asik

damn good new school team

[Edited on July 5, 2013 at 9:41 PM. Reason : I hope Aminu goes to a team I like. I think he's the best free agent this year.]

7/5/2013 9:27:38 PM

i find this gif funnier than i should

7/6/2013 1:48:52 AM

Lin and Asik will be traded for Josh Smith.

7/6/2013 11:10:50 AM

why is Marcus Camby all by himself?

7/6/2013 11:19:14 AM

great for rockets, not that bad for lakers, gasol was a better fit for center with d'antoni anyway and now they can concentrate on actually building at the positions they desperately need instead of just obsessing over big names like the knicks

and there's no way dwight was going to be a shaq/kareem for them

[Edited on July 6, 2013 at 1:12 PM. Reason : k]

7/6/2013 1:08:24 PM

Yes. DW's leaving proves that he can't be the next Shaq.

7/6/2013 1:19:19 PM

Jeff Pendergraph to the Spurs. Fork 'em

7/6/2013 2:00:52 PM

Terrible tradeoff for rockets unless josh smith can regain form. But not sure asik and howard would pair well together.

Lakers are so fucked short term but massive cap room next year theyll be back in 2-4 years

7/6/2013 8:52:57 PM

lakers are never fucked always remember that. cap room doesn't mean shit. if they wanted kevin durant they could trade steve blake and a draft pick for him right now.

7/6/2013 8:56:26 PM

KD is free agent?

7/6/2013 9:55:24 PM

no thats why I said trade as a crazy example of how the lakers can get whoever they want if they really want to regardless of cap space. of course that was an exaggeration.

7/6/2013 10:19:15 PM

Didn't Josh Smith go the the Pistons, not the Rockets?

7/6/2013 10:54:38 PM

Pistons

7/7/2013 10:00:55 AM

comment on that Jordan vs Kobe vs Lebron shit dammit

7/7/2013 10:03:38 AM

Lebron is clearly ahead of the others at 28 years old. The question is will Lebron continue at this pace or has he seen his best days of success. If Lebron continues to win championships and MVPs through a similar age as the others then revisionist history will say that Jordan ruined his legacy by playing baseball.

7/7/2013 10:56:01 AM

wow josh smith didn't get some bullshit max deal, the nba may be actually learning

so what the hell are okc doing about the rest of their team besides durant/westbrook?

[Edited on July 7, 2013 at 11:36 AM. Reason : k]

7/7/2013 11:35:26 AM

Jordan spent four more years in NCAA. So we should compare their achievement in their 10th year of NBA career.
Jordan would be 3 rings, 3 Final MVPs, 4 MVPs.
Or to be fair at age of 28, Jordan should be added with 2 NCAA titles and 2 NCAA MVPs.

[Edited on July 7, 2013 at 11:42 AM. Reason : add another note]

7/7/2013 11:40:29 AM

Tke you forgot another thing on Jordan's resume

NCAA championship
