i guess it's a good trade even though i liked jo. jo doesnt work in our system. we are a faster team now and hopefully marion can play like he did when he was in phoenix. we'll be a run and gun team now like triano wants. we're only 5 games back of 8th so we might have a chance to make the playoffs. low risk trade because if we don't make the playoffs, atleast we get rid of jo and his contract, marion is gone, and we have some money to spend in the summer to get better next year before bosh really leaves. shitty thing about this deal is we pick up banks. his contract sucks and we dont need him. anyone know how the buyout works? does it get added to the salary cap?
^they agree on a buyout fee, that fee is divided among his remaining contract years as hit to salary cap...
they're still negotiating 3million to toronto..........i feel bad for those who spent $$$ on oneil jersey.......who wants lower bowl tickets fro 25-35% off? =p
raptors got jerked... so moon and draft pick for banks? i can live with marion for JO both have expiring contracts....
It was a good trade. O'Neil was obviously not fitting in with the team like they wanted to. Marion will fit better, but he also has an expiring contract which means they'll have some cap space after this season. And getting rid of Moon was a great idea. He doesn't bring the intensity he did last year on a low salary. Now that him and his contract are out of the picture the raps have wiggle room to acquire more players.
it's moon for banks... $3million cash for a first rounder with 2010 being the first year it could possibly materialize...
the way i see it banks won't see the floor... moon will probably start for the heat. ah well ...will see how this trade is when the players play.
moon was good for the craps but a deal needed to be made and marion would def fit better then joneal , i think BC's vision of the team he wanted is finally happening, playoff push!
LOL i laugh it comes down to the heat and raptors for that 8th and final spot and heats edged us out cause JO inside pressence -lol that would be very bitter for us <_<
the raptor trade is good.... if marion works for rapz, toronto can try to sign him for 8-9m during summer, if it doesn't work or if he doesn't want to stay, it free up 17m for toronto. btw, i'm loving nate robninson's dunk over superman!!!
the all star game this year wasnt as fun... but after that I hope the knicks make the playoffs cuz i'm a NYer!
is a big loss for the heat because they are searching for quite some time to get a good deal with marion and now they get almost always injured JO. I rather see the matrix traded for someone else.... But why o why does no one see the spurs as a threat... they are playing better now and which means there D is up good again and they are a strong simple team I´m for the spurs And Shaq was really good with dancin ^^
new player. still shit. cant believe im still watching most of their games. cant believe i watched this whole fuckin game when i shouldve been studying for my exercise therapy finals.
Raped. By King James and his crab dribble. Raped... So what's up with the Tyson Chandler deal? Did it happen? Someone told me it didn't pane out.
Dam....i really have this hatred towards boston, probably because the team is unbeatable or probably i always go for the underdog teams. But i like the spurs................
