MARION OUT????
That is absolute stupidity.
Alexander is benched most of the time and Terry still does not make up for what Marion can give.

PADGETT IN?
Hah hah.

Not SHOCKING trades but not particularly good trades. Jones is a star and Fisher hits the 3 and can score a little and dish a few assists. But Wallace is a monster on the boards and blocks.

Alexander is a burst scorer off the bench and Terry is class. And to be fair to this trade...the Matrix aint really playing very well at all.

Last trade is stupid...the original trade is good. He gets Davis who is pretty good and Googs and a sweetener and only loses Jones. But then we waives Davis for Padgett.

All quite strange but not SHOCKING...if you know what i mean.

On face value it looks a great deal for you, although i wouldn't be so sure.

Jalen Rose' field goal% is pathetic, and he isn't putting up the numbers he should be.
Also would be difficult having both him and Jay Williams on your roster.

Whilst Carter is still very questionable. Don't really know when he will be back.

If you are willing to wait for a) Rose to get traded and b) Carter to return, maybe, then do it.

If you want instant returns, then ride Arenas a little longer.

first trade is pretty shocking.. e.jones & d.fisher.. ordinary value.. b.wallace is a monster on boards/blocks/steals.. hard to get catergories..

second one isnt too bad...

third.. original trade isnt too bad... after a.davis went out with injury.. its understandable that xie would drop him.. but, i probably wouldnt bother with padgett...

hmmm.. if u are prepared to wait for carter.. yes.. i'd do it...
jalen rose.. yes please..

not sure if arenas can keep this surprising (most improved player) form up... although i hope he does...

mutombo... numbers down... not sure if his 42yr old body can hold up..

They`ve got restrictions on how many games that can be played by position I think and Davis is only out for a week. I kept him and played a man short in our league.

47 actually

The only reason his numbers are down is becuase he is deliberately being held back for the second half of the season.

They want to ensure that they have him for the playoffs, which is a very prudent move.

He current 24 minutes a night will hit 35 by February.

Go Kevin Willis! He may be old, but he still hada nice night the other day.

Go you old man.

And remember Terry Porter last year! The Fossil!

i sure hope arenas slows down soon

i accepted the trade, because i'm not gonna get top 3 just cruising as i am...i need to take some risks. and i didn't know they were saving mutombo, but that sure makes a lot of sense
