Now who else wanna fukk with Hollywood Court?
I'd do that trade but I'm sure they want to keep Middleton


I think keeping Middleton might be difficult to do, he's a legit starter but he plays the same position as Jabari, a small market team like that tying up what could be close to a max deal in a guy that will be a backup doesn't seem likely.

At least with Ross they could try and play him at the 2.

Makes sense, especially after the Knight/MCW deal. I don't know if Kidd would be enamoured with Ross though, especially after how he was exposed last year. At least with MCW, he has some discernible skills. Ross is a 24 year old with 3 years of college experience and 3 years of NBA experience and he still has no real skills to speak of.

The 6
Middleton shouldn't get anything close to the max.

There's too many moves to be made to say where this team will be a year from now. This is certain to be an active summer. Greg Monroe would be perfect for us to get that size and scoring we're lacking in the paint right now. The question is could he play with JV? If not maybe we look to move Jonas for a better fit. Monroe is an unrestricted FA, so he should be the prime target.

If they could flip Ross for John Henson, I would cry tears of joy :mjcry:

Same with @Asantehene
i doubt it happens to be honest. Unless they plan on Jabari Parker being a legit SF they will probably keep Henson after buying out Sanders. Management has said they like Henson. The perfect time to do so was when I mentioned it.

Since then the trade value of Ross has diminished though he has played well in the last week

Ross can hit the 3 at a decent clip, the Bucks are going to have 3 guys that need the ball to be effective and I don't think Middleton can defend the 2 very well. They just need a dude that can stand in the corner and shoot 3s.

He'll get close to it, a 4 year $48-52 million offer will be there for Middleton, the new TV deal is going to make the old maxes look affordable so giving Middleton that kind of money will be :yeshrug:

The Pistons retain Monroe's bird rights, they can match offers on him and go over the cap to resign him, he's not your typical unrestricted FA. He is open to resigning with them because they can offer him the 5th year which is what he's wanted.

Since January we've been beaten twice by Charlotte and New Orleans each,CHA once without Jefferson,both NO losses without Davis...Also losses to Detroit at home and the Knicks on the road so its not as if we havent been beaten some fukkn lousy ass teams during this stretch...

No i totally agree...They have been playing horrible. Perhaps they have been feeling themselves too much. 2nd half of yesterdays game shows that we can compete when everyone is focused. We still have a few more games to get in the right stride for playoffs.

@Miggs give me a update on the Raps. Only watched a couple games since the Allstar break. Not looking good for the Raps?
