A Deng-for-Kevin Martin trade would've been fine with me. Boom...there's your #2 scoring option. Too late.

What a worthless column. Let me sum it up for you so you dont have to waste the pageview on that trash.

Holy shit, Asik is looking good this season. I can tell because I have looked at his box scores. He's averaging 13 rebounds a game. And the box score says he hasnt fouled much. Back in July I said it was dumb to keep him because of the contract and salary cap ramifications. Boy, I might be looking stupid for that one. But maybe I wont. Because the salary cap issues are still there and they still need a REAL. DAMN. STAR. to put next to Rose. Until that happens, nothing else matters. But maybe this Asik signing would have mattered. It makes me wonder...

Fuck man, that was the most wishy-washy article I've ever seen him write. I dont even know what his contention was in the article. He argued with himself for a few paragraphs and never concluded it.


Oh well. Possible uninformed Rockets talk today. Probable Bears talk. Certainly a bunch of other stupid non-topics will also be covered. Listen or dont.

Yeah, Deng is a great defender and you'd miss that length, but GarPax needs to realize that it's also important to outscore the other team.

Dan just defended Jeffrey Loria and said he has the right to do that and business-wise it's not wrong.

Fuck you. It's wrong.

At this point are you at all surprised that that's the type of position he would take?

No, because Loria is tight with Bud, and thus with Jerry, and thus beyond reproach.

I think he knows that, but it's about how much of a trade-off you're willing to accept. The Bulls really need a guy like Deng if they are going to have a roster to compete with Miami, and possibly NY, in the near future. There's nobody else on the roster even remotely capable of staying in front of Melo or LeBron, or even still a guy like Pierce in Boston. The Bulls defense will keep them in any game and any series, as long as they have a healthy Rose, Noah, and Deng. I guess you can add Taj to the core now. With those four, the obvious missing link is a spot up shooter who moves well off the ball, which is Kevin Martin almost to a tee, but if they swapped him for Deng they would desperately need a defensive 3 with length who can rebound and hit open shots(Deng). I think it's easier to find someone with Martin's size and skill set(or at least 85% of what he gives you) than it is to replace Deng's size and skill set.

"You don't see a lot of suburban sprawl" beyond Toronto

omgwtf the GTA goes on FOREVER, it's almost as bad as ours!

No, because Loria is tight with Bud, and thus with Jerry, and thus beyond reproach. Remember, it's your fault the White Sox have no money to spend oh wait they just found $40 million for Goober McRolltide never mind.

At least Spiegel gets it. Called it a Ponzi scheme. Maybe Dan read my post from two hours ago about how he's an advocate for moneyed sports interests and really wanted to take it to the max. Jesus. How do you even.

I have heard people say that Toronto is basically Chicago up there.

Similar to Chicago the people are really nice

I think it's more plausible that in taking such an unpopular position on a topic because it's going to ruffle people's feathers. Someone will call in and go into some histrionics about "the right way to run a baseball team" and Dan will shout them down for attaching sentimentality to a lifeless business operation. Rinse and repeat.
