If I would have told you that stat line a year ago, you would have think we were the ones who lost by 19. It's great that we have a balanced team and no longer have to rely on Paul and West for our only offensive points.

I've been saying we should trade West for about 3 years now. It's not that he isn't good. He's just never on the offensive glass because he's always trying to spot up on the outside. You need offensive rebounding from your forwards. With him and Peja both wanting to play out on the perimeter, it really hurts us from getting boards.

So we need to get rid of our 2X All-Star forward who had an off game because he doesn't get offensive rebounds? Why weren't you hired when the hornets GM position was available?

West's (and Okafor's)) defense has been immensely better than the past few years. Didn't watch tonight's game, but just now I checked the boxscore to see if that held up and boom, Griffin (guaranteed ROY) was 4-9 with 6 boards.

I made it pretty clear in my post that I've felt this way for the last few years. It's not like I'm just overreacting to one bad game.

West has produced. I just don't like his game. What's so bad about that?

Well in order to declare he needs to be traded, you should state what you would get back, and how we would replace West. It isn't as easy as just trading a player and all your problems are solved.

Don't forget that CP and West are pretty good friends. If you could package him and MT5 for a noticeably better 4, then go for it. Thing is, teams don't trade away PFs much better than West.

I've been reading that the Heat are considering trading Chris Bosh because his game doesn't mix well with Wade and Lebron. I doubt it would happen soon, but if Bosh doesn't start producing, I could see the Heat trying to move him. Maybe we could put a deal together. Bosh has really been struggling. He's only averaging 5 boards a game.

Why the hell would we want Chris Bosh's soft self?

Not to mention that ridiculous contract he just signed.

Bosh is good. It would be tough to play third wheel to Lebron and Wade. He's kind of lost out there with them. He's still 100 times better than West though.

West's defense is much, much better than ever before. And on most nights he's a money scorer. These days, what's not to like?

But the reason you want to trade west is because he doesnt rebound?

probably a typical casual fan that can't really name the whole roster if you paid them to and just spews out frivolous bull ishh because they "know stuff" or because "they've played ball before"... Where do they come from with their "inside knowledge"?
