All this media hype about the trade deadline and jack **** happened except lakers getting rammon simmons.

Why the **** didn't my t-wolves trade beasley? If your not gonna play him, and give minutes to worse players-martell webster, wes johnson-why not trade him for somebody at least better then those 2?

Man i forgot how bad my team was too. It was fun to cheer for luke ridnour when he was a shooting guard but now that he's running the offense it just is uncomfortable to watch again.

Apparently Beasley was almost traded to the Lakers but it fell through.

I actually said very clearly that Dolan's hires were poor, but that doesn't illustrate your argument that he's more involved with one team than the other. Please try to pay attention.

Imo, you're cherrypicking the performance of the bad team to try to display how bad of an owner he is. This isn't baseball where the owner gets to choose what impact he has on his team. His accountability stops at hiring and firing, which is admittedly poor.

Under your criteria of all sports journalism being speculation then you could say that about any article I bring you about. Nice cover you got there buddy.

Also I never said that because he extended Isiah's contract that he is more involved with the Knicks. That is a separate point, maybe you should try to pay attention. Also that is not a fallacy, it is a fact that James Dolan gave him a contract extension.

I'm not going to argue petty semantics with you. Journalism is speculation unless they present proof to support their claim. This is undeniable truth, and one of the many flaws in your argument.

You used Isiah getting an extension as a contention to your claim, or you just brought it up for no reason, which is it?

kevin love is getting crazy numbers. 40 points 20 rebounds numbers KG never put up in MN. And the fact he's one of the best 3 point shooters is just weird.

Side note, Kobe and Bynum both getting benched is funny

Brown is just trying to motivate his team, I'm completely fine with it.

Sometimes Bynum fails to assert himself / pulls some stupid stuff. Kobe is usually too much of a ball hog.

Sparky · 03-28-2012, 08:51 PM

you see kobe is pushing to get lamar and fisher back come offseason?

debaserr · 03-28-2012, 08:53 PM

I hope Odom comes back

Fish had his time, unless he wants to be the 15th man.

I hope you get odom back too. As long as he's not with Dallas then I'll be satisfied.
