Here's a trade

by DR_JPK on Nov 21, 2008 7:48 PM CST up reply actions 0 recs

Perhaps Shaddy? But

I would even go so far as to give up foye. I like the idea of having a potential Kaman/AlJeff/Love frontcourt w miller and Telfair, a smaller version of Rajon Rondo that I think the Celts just showed is good enough when you have talent to pass it to. Bring gomes and smith off the bench. Throw in an expiring contract as DR says, I think its pretty doable.

by Uncle Junior on Nov 21, 2008 8:02 PM CST reply actions 0 recs

I don't see why a team that chose Gordon

would be particularly interested in Foye or McCants, it would give them the same problem as us – a bunch of guys at the same position. They’d never hear the end of it if they traded Kaman for a bench guy.

Post on Kaman from espn

News: Kaman had 25 points on 11-of-13 shooting with 14 rebounds, six assists and four blocked shots in 38 minutes Wednesday night in the Clippers’ victory over the Thunder.
Spin: This was Kaman’s third consecutive double-double, all coming after rumors broke that the Clippers were evaluating Kaman’s value in the trade market. He has at least one block in every game (3.0 bpg) this season, and is averaging 19.0 points and 13.3 rebounds in his three-game post-rumor run.

…actually have a pretty solid history of being stingy on drafts. They took the Wolves for a ride with Marko and I’m sure they are asking for the moon with Kaman.

those Boston guys

are the worst announcers in the league. I think they got Heinsohn. Man I have never listened to a bigger homer than that dude.

I'd love it if he shot every time too

but you can’t do it when you’re double-teamed, especially when KG is doing the double-teaming

OK...I'm tired of the great defense talk

Section VIII-Defensive Three-Second Rule
a. The count starts when the offensive team is in control of the ball in the front-court.
b. Any defensive player, who is positioned in the 16-foot lane or the area extending 4 feet past the lane endline, must be actively guarding an opponent within three seconds. Actively guarding means being within arms length of an offensive player and in a guarding position.
c. Any defensive player may play any offensive player. The defenders may double-team any player.
d. The defensive three-second count is suspended when: (1) there is a field goal attempt, (2) there is a loss of team control, (3) the defender is actively guarding an opponent or (4) the defender completely clears the 16-foot lane.
e. If the defender is guarding the player with the ball, he may be located in the 16-foot lane. This defender is not required to be in an actively guarding/arms dis-tance position. If another defender actively guards the player with the ball, the original defender must actively guard an opponent or exit the 16-foot lane. Once the offensive player passes the ball, the defender must actively guard an opponent or exit the 16-foot lane.
PENALTY: A technical foul shall be assessed. The offensive team retains pos-session at the free throw line extended. The shot clock shall remain the same as when play was interrupted or reset to 14 seconds, whichever is greater.

:)

I just don’t think I can watch too much more of this. As a project for everyone during the 4th, watch what Boston does with 1 of its 2 bigs in the lane on defense. 1 of the 2 sets up near the free throw line and just sits there. You could call a 3 second violation on damn near every possession.

to my mind

that’s why they should get rid of the rule. If you’re going to let them play zone don’t be half-ass about it.

I think they'd...

…have to move in the 3 point line and widen the lane, but I agree. As it stands right now, the Celtics just put 2 7 footers in the lane and have them hack anyone that comes near.
