That trade Boston just pulled off. With Vin Baker, are the Celtics going to be stronger or is it going to hurt them with 3 ego's and the act of non sharing on the court?

With Camby gone and the trade, is Antonio McDyess even productive anymore?

I don't think non-sharing is really a big issue in Boston. Antoine is pretty comfortable being the #2 guy, and they both get their shots. Now that they've got a post game to go with two of the best scorers in the game I think they'll take the East pretty easily. (But then again, that's not saying a whole lot).

And Camby sucks ass. I can't stand the heartless Cambys and Keith Van Horns of the league. Lisa Leslie's a tougher ball player! Smart move on the Knicks part.

All I know is that it was terrible that NJ beat Boston last year! It would've been fun to see the LA/Boston of the 2000 and of course, LA would've demolished the Celtics too. But, that would've given Boston the incentive to also get a Decent Center along with Baker. I think Tim Duncan should go to Boston!

Back off!!! Duncan is coming to Toronto next year and we're winning the championship!

I just know that's what Grunwald's thinking with these last few moves to clear up some salary space. The man's a genius. Our destiny is as good as sealed.

You guys got Hakeem and Antonio Davis. Why would you also need Duncan?

I was watching Sportcenter and they said that it was a bad trade because Vin Baker just isnt that good anymore and that they are paying way too much for him.

I think boston made a good trade. Vin will avg a lot more points in the east because the east has no decent centers. Also, a hurt Mcdyess is still better than a healty Camby. I mean Mcdyess is a proven all-star. Camby is a decent NBA player at best.

Vin Baker needs to stay healthy and watch his weight. If he can do those two things, he can be a FORCE on that team.

I haven't followed Vin that much when he was out in Seattle. Has he turned out that bad or does he jus need motivation since he was displeased in Seattle.

McDyess, I hope he does work out good for NY. They need some help and they have pretty good talent. Is Spree and Houston still there?

Because Hakeem's a waste of 5 million dollars is why. He's too old to do anything anymore and AD is a Power Forward at heart...

Duncan would make any team better. There isn't a thing the man can't do.

I totally agree. Hakeem didn't even play most of the end of the year last year. He never really contributed when he was on the court. I'm also glad the Raps didn't give in to Keon Clark's demands...he should realize he is a second rate player who is lucky to start on an NBA team.

Imagine Duncan and AD in the front court, with Carter supporting in the back along with MoPete...that would be a pretty kickass lineup. Gruenwald knows what he is doing...



Posted by: davidjasondean

No, I can't imagine that. I don't think the combo of Carter, Duncan and AD would be a good enough Trio. They need to get rid of AD for that combo. You guys need Horace Grant! LOL!!!!
