NBA Off-Season

[Numbahs]

I figured that this topic should start up since....

BEN WALLACE SIGNED WITH THE BULLS. I don't know that it makes them any better, but it certainly doesn't hurt. Also, the Hornets are looking good for next year after signing Peja and Bobby Jackson to replace Speedy Claxton.

[ROC]

So, since Wallace is gone...the Pistons are basically screwed?

[Numbahs]

I wouldn't say that. They just don't have a true center.

I've read that they are going after Bonzi Wells. I don't know if that's such a good idea. He could kill that clubhouse dead.

[ROC]

Still, if the Pistons couldn't get it done but one time with a loaded team...what makes anyone think they'll do it without Ben?

[Guest Josef Stallion]

Pistons are done.

Ben Wallace if you're reading this: Me and you downtown right now, bitch.

Chicago and Orlando on the rise, Detroit and Miami on decline.

Phoenix Suns to win it all next season.

Almost made the finals this season without Amare Stoudemire. Imagine them with him healthy?

Yikes.

[Guest Josef Stallion]

I don't know about the Suns, they might make it to the West Finals again but I don't see them advancing without any d against SA or Dallas.

I'm gonna go cry now. Bye..

[Numbahs]

The Suns will probably be the 5 seed or so in the playoffs. They can't make up for Thomas leaving through free agency, and I don't know that Amare can come back and "fit" the team. I say that as a fan too.

I think their time has come and gone.

Hell of a move by my Baby Bulls...Im liking this team for 06. I'm not so sure about this rumored trade of Chandler tho :ohwell:

[Numbahs]

Man, if the proposed trade between the Hornets and Bulls goes down for Chandler, both teams will be looking quite good.

Also, the Pistons heard me say() that they lack a true big man and jumped on Joel Przybilla. I don't see how he could turn Detroit down. That would be really dumb on his part.

[Guest Josef Stallion]

Rasheed is gonna make Ben pay! That punk ass!

Joel fucking Przybilla? Ugh. We should go for Nazr Mohammed..

I think I'll be happy if the Celtics get Allen Iverson.

I think.

I think.

No, you won't be. The Celts find a way to fuck it all up.

The East is going to look really interesting this year. Detroit goes down, but how far? Chicago goes up, but by how much? What is Cleveland, Miami, and New Jersey going to do and where will they be? They all are top 5 teams in the East ... where they fall is your guess. And then Orlando might soon be coming upward.

Pistons signed Mohammed to fill the Wallace void.

[Guest Bosstown Boy]

Are the Cavs going to add anyone or are they going to be the LeBrons again?

[Numbahs]

...and that means in a year or so they might not even be the LeBrons anymore.

[Numbahs]

Tyson Chandler to the Hornets for PJ Brown and JR Smith.

I think it's a good move by both teams, with the only bad thing thing being the Hornets having to eat Chandler's huge contract.

[Guest Bosstown Boy]

I think the Bulls get the better of this deal. Experiance and youth, as well as two players that are very solid.

[thuganomic]

Bulls get better end. Brown's expiring, and JR Smith is another young talent. He's explosive as hell too.
