    People are so dumb. Doesn't character mean anything anymore? Why would you want to get a boozer on our team?

    Dumars should deal Rip to Denver. Then Rip and Billups can continue their love affair and we can get the Birdman as a throwin, along with someone else. I love the Birdman. He brings a rodmanlike passion to the game and to the fans. Even Billups said the Birdman was his favorite player on the team. He gets everyone playing at a higher level with the energy that he brings. Gotta love it.

    In related news, Ben Gordon's jumpshot is incredibly sexy. Sexier than Ray Allen's.

    Actually Denver has a trade exception from the Camby deal that makes that possible. We could actually send Rip to Denver without taking anybody back and free up $11.6M, then we could trade Max or Kwame to New Orl's for Chandler.

    That's why I said Birdman was the "throwin".

    Lil' Dun and Tay would form the most physical pair of SF's in the league. No way LeBron could survive against those 2 plus the Pistons street cred would go through the roof.

    If it does, then not many people should like Ben Gordon. :sssh:

    In fact, i'm having a hard time trying to figure out how i'm going to root for him.

    Ben Gordon's crotch grab gives us the most street cred we've had since Corliss.

    Heh. You are just looking for a challenge with that aren't you? Does that mean - I don't really have anything credible to back it up, so I'll just pretend I have a bombshell on Gordon, or what?

    I'm not Gordon's biggest fan or anything, but as far as I have heard, he was a good teammate other than he is a bit of a loner.
