I think you can legitimately make that case. Also, the Hawks would probbaly have been better off with the hometown kid than Acie Law, who was a total bust. Talk about a lose/lose.

Drew might not be the greatest coach, but he certainly is a class guy who doesn't deserve this. Methinks the karma fairy will visit upon the house of Kidd.

I think Larry Drew's a better coach than Kidd (at the moment). Definitely got screwed over.

Yeah I don't see Haywood being no more than a Mike Dunleavy Jr.
That's actually not a bad comparison. Hayward is coming off a less-than-stellar season too. Plus, the Jazz kinda drafted over him last week so he can probably be had for less than near-max.

Speaking of comparisons, I was on the Dougie McDermott bandwagon until.... he agreed to the Wally Szczerbiak comparison on draft night. Way to sell yourself short

Always liked Wally but I think the ceiling is really low with McDermott.

Really? I really think he can be a 16-20ppg guy.

He could be. It depends on how well he can shoot the 3 but I don't see him as a post player and he's a liability on defense. He's a bit undersized playing the 4 in a traditional offense and a bit big to play the 3. He could prove me wrong though. He's got a good midrange shot and can shoot in traffic.

Before the US match starts, Bosh & Wade have apparently agreed to significant pay cuts.

Interesting. Saw rumors James will sign for 2years at the max. IOW, in 2 years we'll be frothing over the thought of him teaming up with Durant in NY. Yay! (sarcastic).

ESPN will have a show about it when he does. You can count on it.

I would be very happy with that decision, but I'm not convinced he wants to pay NYS/NYC income taxes.
Lol, forgot you were a Knick. Hey, NY could also mean the Nets. I'm from Atlanta so they're all the same to me.
TIFWIW.

At least it's not Ric Bucher reporting it, then we'd know it's wrong.

(snickering) Hawks sign Thabo Sefalosha 3yr/$12Mil.
How is this improvement over Carroll? Maybe defensively
