on artest to lakers, that's minus one good defender on kobe...

si korver ba FA din?

Artest has been on really good behavior since the palace brawl. His Houston teammates never had anything bad to say to him.

^^^krunchy, sino yung one man na tinutukoy mo sa Houston? si Ariza? he has done well for LA specially in the PO but still i don't see him as the Rockets' main man next season. they could practically be without a star next season with Yao possibly missing one or more season and TMac recovering from microfracture operation and could also be on his way out of Houston.

as for Stat to the Cavs thing, i don't think they could afford to get him.

may chance si stat kung medjo magpapababa siya ng salary..siyempre hindi habang buhay bata siya..kelangan din niya ng championship ring..joining the cavs eh ang laki ng chance niya to get one or more..but mahirap mag predict!!basta dapat isa pang star for my cavs..and asikasuhin muna nila ang pag re-sign kay idol!

sayang!shooter kasi kelangan ng cavs..grrrr....hindi kasi consistent si idol sa labas eh..sila mo and delonte hindi naman streak shooter!kelangan nila ng mala ala kapono or korver or daequan cook na player!

^^^yan ay isang napakalaking KUNG tatanggap si Stat ng pay cut. one more thing, di na nagclick yung Shaq-Stat tandem in PHO despite having a good PG in Nash. i don't see how it would work if they had to do it all over again in CLE. oh well, di naman masamang mangarap e.

-----

akin lang naman pag natuloy man yun eh..IMO sila na ang may pinaka dominating big men sa ilalim.and we know nmn na kelangan din ng katulong ni LBJ sa scoring..yah i know hindi nag click ang 2 sa suns...maybe sa system ni brown eh pumwede...well let see nalang din..any news from AI?mukang quiet siya ngayon ah

-----

magkakaproblema kung pupunta si stat sa cavs..kasi gusto nya sa kanya bola eh pano un ball hagger si lebronx...tig isa sila na bola?

i respect your opinion pareng jay, pero i think what Cavs really need is someone na malaki pero may tira sa labas, sayang talaga c CVill napunta pa siya sa Pistons,.. sobrang sisikip ang Cavs sa loob pag napunta pa sa kanila si Stat.. Si Hedo hindi pa naman nag sa-sign, sana ligawan nila, kaya lang malaki hinihingi

-----

as for AI, have read this one...

Iverson to Heat?
LINK

Would Allen Iverson or Grant Hill as an opposite wing scorer at $3 million this season and an option at $3.4 million next be worth the one-year tax hit if it improves the Heat with Wade in his prime? Absolutely.
--------------------

being a fan of both AI & dWade, it would be nice to see them play together. but i don't see how's this would work. first, both AI & dWade practically play the same positions. and second, both need to command the ball in their hands to be effective. this ain't gonna work IMO.

-----

Stat and Shaq never worked out in Phoenix, don't expect it to work out in Cavs as well..Besides Amare had a statement last season where he was like telling the media people that he wants more touches, he wants to be like Dwight, Lebron or Kobe who carries their team, but how can he be that player when he don't have lots of touches..
That statement he said was somewhat against Shaq because at that time, their coach was focusing a lot on Shaq and not with him..
Now do you think Stat will even try to reunite again with Shaq?.

-----

Somethings do last. If you just let them, and if they let you..

^^dagdag mo pa pareng wenong, i think between AI and DWade, no one is willing to be just a "support" to the other...

ano ng nangyari dun sa rumor na AI to bobcats? tama ba?

-----

"Gonna cry, are you gonna cry?" -Jecht in FF Dissidia

^^^pareng lichking on the contrary, AI is and can be a supporting player. that was his role in Denver for Melo. yun nga lang, they focused more on offense and nothing else. but the thing is, as i've said, same spot kasi sila ni Wade. unless the Heat could get a player like Hedo who can play point-forward, this union won't work. anyways, naiisip lang naman yan ng writer sa Miami Herald and it doesn't mean that the Heat are actually pursuing AI or Kidd for that matter.

yung AI to Bobcats, wala pa ring linaw as of now. but IMO, it's where AI could be most effective teaming up again with his former coach Larry Brown.

-----

mas ok sana kung mapupunta si AI sa bobcats... reunion nila ni larry brown... baka reunion din to the finals yun... the bobcats has the pieces, legitimate big time scorer na lang kulang...
