It's a crazy world, you never know.

maybe an extra player to have enough on the roster after a big trade where they send a lot of players out?T-Mac maybe?

As soon as Oden got injured, I was onboard that bandwagon. Or Curry. Whatever Portland wants.

But seriously, how else are we to interpret this pickup? How can anyone justify giving Bender minutes over Hill? Hill is the freakin' #8 pick. If he can't even crack the rotation over a guy who's been out of the league for years, what good is he?

There's gotta be more too this. I think once the December 15th and other trade restrictions are gone, we'll see something happen.

The only thing left to do is get rid of Eddy Curry and sign Rik Smits



The Dunkin' Dutchman would own

If LeBron doesn't come, you just gave Chandler up for nothing.

If Lebron doesnt come were going to have the money for 2 guys that will justify not getting LeBron.

Wade/Amar'e
Wade/Bosh
Amar'e/Bosh (only because the Knicks would be dumb enough to sign 2 players of the same position. Well, i got to give credit to the T'Wolves cuz they're gna do that with Raymond Felton and TJ Ford and draft John Wall.)

All those combos would be as good as getting LeBron from a fan point of view and better for a winning point of view.

I don't see Wade coming here and honestly

Douglas
Wade
Gallinari
Bosh
Whoever

doesn't scream championship to me. We're not trying to build a Playoff team, we're trying to build a dynasty. LeBron gets you that, Wade and Bosh do not. If LeBron stays in Cleveland I say sign guys to 1 year contracts again, tank and try again next year.

I do wonder what plan B is....if Lebron doesn't arrive.
