I would love that. The only way we'll see that is on a game of 2k

I do think they just bring Jackson back. What are they trying to prove, they can win without him? It's foolish.

Jim Buss doesn't want to admit he's a fricking moron.

Sad thing is that scenario really could work. LeBron has been asked about what will happen in 2014 and the way he answers the question is very squirmy...it's just as if he already knows...We shall see though, if Heat 3-Peat he'll be with his La Familia forever.

If its just Phil and the lineup the Lakers had last year it wont be enough for the Zen Master. Maybe with a 100% Kobe and that lineup, but an achilles injury like that will force Kobe to shoot more jumpers and take away from his driving ability.

Greg Oden rumors

It might be all his agent (Conley Sr.) talking, but a surpringly number of contenders/good franchises showing interest. I presume it's all exploratory.

Smith won't leave if Howard cones home, Atlanta would offer both max contracts

Oden to Miami BOOM...this has been said for a year or so now. Miami needs a big and Oden won't be expensive to experiment with. They will let him take his time until he is ready to begin playing and no rush. Once he is 100%, wow...how awesome will that lineup be? also it will cost the heat pretty much nothing to make it happen.

He can still be an offense killer if we have keep him on the court for a long period of time.

*My earlier post was intended to be in another thread
it's been rumored sure, but I don't think it's a done deal. I'd like to see Oden in a place where he can be tutored a little bit, so if he can find some health and shake off some rust, get his development back on track. If the guy can play 500 nba games, he'd have a good career considering his setbacks.

In short, I'd like to see him in San Antonio, Dallas or Indiana.

There is no way Oden could keep up in the Heats system. They'd have to drastically change their style of play, contracting the court, if you will.

you would think the Jazz would do something with Burke coming in. Oh well....you can tell which way franchises are going just by who is spending money. It's that way in all sports.

Thing is for the Jazz they can't compete for any big names. I feel like even Milwaukee has landed more names with Richard Jefferson, john salmons, Stephen Jackson, monta.

There's talks of a S&T trade with Asik and Josh Smith, if Dwight ends up signing with Houston. So the lineup would effectively look like this...

Lin?
Harden
Parsons
Smith
Howard

I think this puts them in the upper tier in the Western Conference, if not the whole league.

yeah, the Bucks sure did have their share of stars go through there. not much going on in Milwaukee either....

oh well...who knows what the future is like there. If Bogut would still be around maybe their would be some future but they need a big who can score.
