Even though Kwame Brown only spent about 20 minutes in Memphis, as a Grizzlies fan, I want to kill myself just because he put on my favorite team's uniform.
Edit: That's saying a lot, considering that just being a Grizzlies fan is enough to make people want to kill themselves.

I love how the sports media still tries to soften what happened as "taking money for inside tips". |

This really has potential. Post-game interview with Kevin Durant: "So, Kevin, what led to the Chicago's 33% shooting and 25 turnovers?" "It must have been......THE WIND!"

Ron Artest has been traded to the Rockets for Bobby Jackson, the Rockets' 2009 first rounder and eventually Donte Greene. Good move by the Rockets.

Dola, good move if Artest does not have a breakdown.

WOW. I'm not quite sure what to think of this. I guess it was a move for right now, 'cause Greene looked solid in the summer league.
Off to ClutchFans.net to read the reaction...

I can't believe Artest got traded to the Rockets. Nice pickup by Houston.

Well the concern with Artest has always been his lunatic ways. Evidently he likes playing for Rick Adelman so that is a plus. It is put up or shut up time for McGraddy and to a lesser extent Yao. This is a very deep team.

Very true. The core of a 55 win team is intact (if we do indeed re-sign Carl Landry) while adding Brent Barry and Ron Artest (and that idiot Joey Dorsey ). As long as Ron can handle being the third option, this team can go places...

Great pick up by the Rockets. As long as Artest doesn't turn into Artest and the big 2 stay healthy they will be really dangerous

If, you know, he learns how not to foul out of every game and how to shoot free throws... He fouled out facing Victor Rahmalo, for gods sake! What's he going to do against post players that are actually better than sucky?!?!

To be fair, every player fouled out in the summer league at least 9 times. (slight exaggeration)
Learning not to foul is something all post players need to work on when they come in to the pros. I was actually very surprised at how well Kevin Love did at not only staying out of foul trouble, but also doing it while actually playing some D, albeit against D-Leaguers.

I'm talking about an extremely mediocre college player, Groundhog. Victor Rahmalo isn't good enough to even sniff the summer leagues...

It will take Dorsey a while but he will be good, plus, it isn't like they need him to come in and make an impact

Prophetic much? Looks like he might not have even waited until he arrived in Houston to turn back into Artest.

Well, the Cavs just turned Joe Smith and Damon Jones in to Mo Williams.
Cavs get Mo Williams Oklahoma gets Desmond Mason, Joe Smith Milwaukee gets Damon Jones, Luke Ridnour, Adrian Griffin The best player in the deal is Mo Williams, so the Cavs did OK. I'm not really a huge fan of Mo Williams though... He is gun happy, which was a disaster when teamed with gun happy Michael Redd, but the Cavs need scoring and Mo can do that.

Mo Williams
WTF I guess he's still 25, seems like he's been playing forever. I actually liked Smith. I guess now that we have Mo we won't have to see him go off on us 5 times a year. Delonte West apparently gets the shaft. Which is a shame cause I thought he was their 2nd best player most nights. Big man depth is now pretty pathetic though, I can only count 3 that can actually play, and the 2 with afros are horrible on offense. I wouldn't be suprised to see some deal with the Knicks now for Randolph and a shooting guard(Crawford?) Whatever the hell gets Szcerbiak off the squad. |
