richardson
wallace

okafor

coached by larry brown and with a top-10 draft pick, that's a pretty good team.

God no. I'd rather have a mars bar.

when it comes to tj ford, i think it bears repeating: if this guy couldn't make it work with a backup like jose calderon, i have serious doubts he'll ever make it work- anywhere. because the fact is, if he needs a backup who's a clear backup (not a mo williams or jose calderon type), that team will never compete because, imo, no team can afford to have tj ford without having someone behind him as a safety net for tj's injury concerns.

if i were tj ford, i'd tell myself the same thing, "maybe it's not them- maybe it's me." i think tj's a nice guy and all but i think his priorities are a little out of whack, and the longer he goes without helping himself the worse it'll get. i think tj's been lucky to have a capable backup behind him since being drafted- it'll get messy now if he goes to a team that doesn't have one.

i could see these teams making a play for tj ford:

houston
seattle
charlotte
orlando
lakers
new york
new orleans
just kidding
cleveland
portland
denver
washington

if he doesn't go to one of those teams, i'll be... wrong.

aside from tj going to new york, the deal that makes the most sense to me is tj to the clipps for mobley and their pick. la gets its starting pg, actually save some money the next couple years (goes a long way to negating the risk associated with tj), and get can hold onto maggette while creating a starting spot for thorton.

tj
maggette
thorton
brand
kaman

that's pretty sweet.

Mobley is a good player, Old but good.

i'd be all down for that with the pick involved.

we could grab (Eric Gordon, Randolph, Russell Westbrook or Alexander) @ 7, then @ 17 (CDR, Batum,Hibbert,Darrell Arthur, Speights, McGee)

Calderon/Ukic/(Westbrook w/7?)
Parker/Mobley/(Eric Gordon, CDR w/7?17?)
Moon/Kapono/(Alexander, Randolph, Batum w/7?17?)
Bosh/Humphries/(Darell Arthur, Speights w/17?)
Bargnani/Rasho/(Hibbert, McGee w/17?)

crazy options,. i'd make a deal.

even with the Pacers @ 11 makes sense to me. Marquis Daniels=Mobley + 11th for Ford, give or take, another deal i might make.
