Meh, Nash didn't really go off like everyone has seen him go off at any point in the series. I am okay with awarding Phoenix victory in the entirely fictional OT.

If Kobe didn't air ball that shot....the Suns win. I didn't see the game so wtf happened? That doesn't make any sense to me.

I think he meant it hits the rim and doesn't go it. That was the airball that Artest grabbed and put in with a second left. So if it had bounced anywhere else, OT.

[fenikz]

kobe doubled, throws up a airball, artest runs through richardson grabs it and lays it in

and why I say we would of won in OT because they had just came back from 11 down and tied the game with 3 seconds left, all the momentum was in the Suns favor

Ah, that makes more sense now. I couldn't for the life of me imagine a scenario where Kobe making a shot means that the Suns win, lol

Two in the case of that Superbowl alone.

[Bob Sanders Dreadlock]

Bulls got Ronnie Brewer not sure if it has been posted.

throw in some more with Donaghe & Stern, then add Sarver being cheap at the wrong times(JJ, Deng, Rondo, Fernandez, Nate Robinson)

He got plenty of time, he couldn't score for anything. We had the worst scoring bench in the NBA last year and Brewer and Young brought nothing but defense.

[bored of education]

i like the Brewer signing. Him and Korver at the deuce

[SeanTaylorRIP]

Matt Barnes should have been the signing. I'll give Brewer being younger, more athletic, but he's a horrendous shooter. Worse than Tony Allen. Barnes brings similar defense but can actually knock down a shot at times.

[bored of education]

Korver makes up for the lack of shooting on Brewer's end by a lot.

combined they make a solid starter

[diabsoule]

They would have had a good duo in Redick and Korver but the Magic ****** that up. Oh well. At least Otis Smith knows what he's doing by matching J.J.'s offer which makes them have one of the highest payrolls in the NBA at $93 million.

[SeanTaylorRIP]

But they will never play together as neither can guard 3's. You will have Brewer, Rose, and Deng which is perimeter suicide. It worked for Brewer in Utah with Deron's shooting threat, but with the Bulls Rose strong suit is driving and kicking out. You need guys to hit shots down. Neither Brewer or Deng can. All teams will do now that they have Boozer and Noah is clog the hell out of the lane and dare you to shoot outside. Korver is one piece but you definitely need more.

[Rosebud]

Hey guys, I was on vacation when the big FA moves went down so I was wondering what your guys thoughts on the Knicks offseason was? I'm clearly biased but I'm stoked with what we did even if we didn't turn into a dynasty overnight. Stat is Stat, Felton for 2 years 15 mil seems like a steal and the Lee S&T was also a great move. We're not title contenders but given how much young talent we have and how everyone other than Amare plays good D I think we've gotten ourselves a playoff team that could snag a series this year depending on how much Gallo breaks out.

So what do you guys think a rotation of:
Turiaf/Mozgov/Amare/Jordan
Amare/Gallo/Randolph
Gallo/Randolph/Chandler/Fields
Chandler/Azubuike/Walker
Felton/Douglas

Will be able to do?

[Brodeur]

Teams better than the Knicks:
Boston
Orlando
Miami
Milwaukee
Chicago
Atlanta
Charlotte

I really doubt they could beat any of those teams, but I suppose they could sneak into the playoffs.

[EvilNixon]

Turiaf should only play 20 min in a back up role. Amar'e at C and AR at PF makes sense.

[LonghornsLegend]

It seems like the Magic have a habit of matching offers for players they don't even intend to use all that much.
