  1. Rumor: Minny could offer #6 for Kirk

    If the move Kirk for Cardinal they need to throw something else in the deal. Kirk for Cardinal and Madsen? I bet they both look great in suits. My question really revolves around why wouldn't we take a guard at 6? Especially someone like Harden or DeRozen? We will be moving our only insurance...
  2. Tyrus not being shopped and some BG talk

    SouL EateR wrote: He is supposed to help, but not in all situations. Tyrus is often overly eager to leave his guy to try and block a shot he has no realistic chance of contesting. This leaves his man either open for a pass or offensive board. Tyrus has also not proven to be a particularly...

  5. Tyrus not being shopped and some BG talk

    SouL EateR wrote: How many guys did he leave open coming from the weakside for blocks? How many offensive rebounds did we give up because he wasn't boxing out? Steals and blocks are nice but they are not the whole of playing defense.

Yes, he is a unique player in his ability to shoot and make difficult shots and hit 3s. But if you look around...
  7. Ot: Sox get Peavy if he waives his no-trade

    sabixx wrote: Really? 17 wins and a sub-3 ERA isn't good or very good? I think it is. He's off to a slow start this year but he's got a 3.29 ERA in May, I'd say he's pretty decent, eh?

  9. Draft Express: Bulls shopping Tyrus

    Basghetti80 wrote: Under certain circumstances though Tyrus might be more valuable in a trade once he's signed an extension. That way other teams would know what they are getting themselves in to from a financial stand point. You can look at it the other way to and figure the team would like...

    Ben wants his money make no mistakes about that. There will be no discount for the Bulls, so want or not all someone has to do is offer him something frontloaded or what would put us in the Tax and it's over.

    ??? ?????? wrote: If that's really all they get out of Tyrus than this will truly wrap up one of the most disappointing player experiences ever. First they couldn't get coaches that would put him on the floor, now they are going to dump him for a pick when they knew he was a project who was...

    chi_hawks_23 wrote: Well I am pretty sure under those circumstances they just bite the bullet and eat his salary. But why should he tell them to eff off? Ownerships' situation changed (owner is in the process of a very messy divorce and getting cleaned out) plus the downturn in the economy...
  13. Ot: Sox get Peavy if he waives his no-trade

    Well according to ESPN and Peavy's agent it looks like his desire to stay in the NL is going to be what kills this deal. I wonder if the Padres come to Peavy and ask him to take on for the organization knowing that his value could only plummett as the deadline approaches and this could be the...

    sabixx wrote: Wow... the quote from one of the Padres players reported today was that Peavy might be tentative about playing for Ozzie Guillen... I wonder if some of Ozzie's outburts come back to haunt the Sox here.
  16. Ot: Sox get Peavy if he waives his no-trade

    That's good to see the Sox aren't losing top hitting then, although trading two of your top pitching prospects still hurts... The Sox are probably getting decent value for Peavy, but if he insists on having that last season and $22mil picked up then I'd be concerned how the financial...

  19. Not Detroit

    Gordon makes sense there if they could package Rip for something, but can they? He's clearly an overpaid player who is PG dependent. Their main trade advantage right now is the cap space to just take on contracts without giving the same money back in return... I am not sure how things happen in...

    chi_hawks_23 wrote: Cubs don't need him. Their problem is hitting, not pitching (especially starting pitching). Sox fans should watch out though. Peavy has had some season with pretty horendous home/road splits. People too often forget that he pitches half his games or more in an absolute...
