K.C Johnson ‏@KCJHoop
Pending passed physical, Bulls have traded Kyle Korver to Atlanta. Could be sign-and-trade w/Hinrich.

Hawks have some nice shooters now between Korver & Morrow

Brodeur · 07-13-2012, 02:26 PM

Hawks have some ridiculous shooting between Korver, Jenkins, Morrow, and Lou Williams. NEW GOLDEN STATE (with Josh Smith and Al Horford).

I think I have a new NBA 2K team to use..

Docta · 07-13-2012, 03:09 PM

But Lou Williams is the only one of them that can play defense.

And **** the Bulls. Bunch of pansies in the front office.

TheBoyWonder22 · 07-13-2012, 03:12 PM

JJ Hickson resigned. Hopefully his awesome play at the end of the season carries over and he can play well whenever LA needs a breather.

Rockets officially Amnesty Scola....

The first domino has just fallen....

Next up, wait to see if the Bulls match on Asik.

If they are able to trade Horford and small pieces with first rounders for Dwight, it won't matter. Those shooters with Smith/Dwight in the paint is absolutely lethal, even if it's only for one season.

**** You Darryl Morey you piece of **** changing the terms of the Lin deal you ******. I hope Dwight goes to LA and you end up with your **** 13 man PF roster.

TheBoyWonder22 · 07-13-2012, 03:21 PM

*12 man PF roter

Dwight's going to Houston. ORL doesn't want to trade him within their own conference, much less their own division.

Ya I am that jerk ended up causing us to now have to pay Lin 14 mil in the 3rd year of the contract and got rid of the 4th year and the team option that was originally reported.

This basically going to put the Knicks in a luxury tax hell hole. All cause Morey wants to be a giant a hole.

MetSox17 · 07-13-2012, 04:09 PM

That's what the Knicks get for basically inviting other teams to offer crazy deals to Lin by admitting they were gonna match just about any offer. That's what the Wolves did to the Blazers as well.

Yup. This NBA offseason has been just great. Watching these GMs play this little game of cat and mouse.

Lin's deal could cost NYK $45M in luxury tax penalties. That's a hell of a lot of jerseys to sell 3 years down the line.... heck, the boom already happened last season anyways. lol.

Doubt LAC trades CP3 for Lin now. hah

Adrian Wojnarowski ‏@WojYahooNBA

The Dallas Mavericks have successfully claimed Elton Brand off amnesty waivers, a league source tells Y! Sports.

MetSox17 · 07-13-2012, 04:15 PM

Well, it'll help that China is gonna put Lin in the all-star game.

LTgiants · 07-13-2012, 04:19 PM

It's a ***** move especially when we just gave him about every trade piece we had for Camby. To then turn around and make the Lin deal worse for NY is a ***** move

scottyboy · 07-13-2012, 04:22 PM

it's a business move. maybe the knicks shouldn't have made it so obvious they were going to match any offer and been virtually so desperate

MetSox17 · 07-13-2012, 04:23 PM

Um, you weren't doing them any favors by trading for Camby. He owes them nothing, and if he structured the deal that way it's because he wanted Lin to sign with his team. Why should he be doing the Knicks a favor in return?

We gave him more then needed to make the Camby deal happen cause its fairly obvious that the Knicks would not want Howard in Brooklyn. So they gave him non guarranted contracts, draft picks and cash. To give him more assets to acquire Dwight. Turning around and ******* the Knicks over is a ***** move.

If he wanted to give a PG big money he should not have let Dragic go. He could have easily signed Goran to a better deal for his team.

bigbluedefense · 07-13-2012, 04:31 PM

It's all good haters. When Jeremy Lin makes the All Star team, we'll see who's laughing last.

Laughing at how big of an impact the asian voting makes? If Lin somehow makes the all-star team, it will mean literally nothing

The Knicks got what they wanted by not having Dwight in Brooklyn and not having Camby in Miami. You act like the Knicks were only making the deal to help out Houston. C'mon man. You both got what you wanted.
