28 and his knees are already titanium..

True. But you never know what condition he could be in.

Grizz offered OJ Mayo in a deal for Chris Paul supposedly.

Read an interesting article today on the Pistons site about Charlie V and how he has stayed and will stay all summer in Michigan with Arnie Kander to work out. He says he feels real good and he got leaner and is getting stronger. So I guess that's good for him and us.

This is true. I've heard from a Hornets "insider" that around 29 teams have actually talked to the Hornets about CP. I'm about to start a thread on it with a trade the Hornets "balked" at.

Bynum for Paul

 

[elcheato]

Hornets wouldn't want to add long term salary.. Not to mention Bynum sucks

He looked a bit leaner in the video I seen. But I'll believe it when I see him improve.

Portland is showing strong interest in Cleveland Cavaliers guard Mo Williams(notes). The Blazers have been making calls to check on him.

Now there's some chatter on the NBA grapevine the Bucks may be interested in another small forward - Corey Maggette of the Golden State Warriors. It's no secret the Warriors have Maggette on the trading block - even though he is coming off a quality season in which he was the Warriors' second-leading scorer at 19.8 points a game. He also averaged 5.3 rebounds But Maggette has a fairly hefty contract - he still has three years, $31 million remaining on it - and the money- conscious Warriors would like to unload it.

The speculation is the Bucks are offering the Warriors center Dan Gadzuric, who has one year left on his contract for $7.4M, and guard Charlie Bell ($3.8M).

The Cavaliers would be better served getting rid of Mo Williams. He isn't good, not to mention a quote from Doug Gottileb - "He can't guard the chair I'm sitting on."

I remember having a franchise in 2K with the Cavs and Williams was my point guard. Good god, he has to be the worst defender on the game.

 

[elcheato]

There is still a market for a quick PG who shoots 43% from 3 and 90% from the line.... No matter how bad his defense is.

I firmly understand that. Doesn't mean the Cavaliers wouldn't be better served if they were able to work a good deal for him.

Detroit Pistons forward Charlie Villanueva faces a charge of domestic assault after a May 19 incident in Burlington, Ontario.

The 25-year-old Villanueva was released by Halton Regional Police on a promise to appear in court on July 9. The name of complainant and other details about the incident weren't available Tuesday.

His lawyer, Owen Wigderson, says Villanueva, "denies all allegations of wrongdoing and I'm very confident that he'll be exonerated."

I was just going to post this. I wonder what the hell he did, if anything.

it happend a month ago, court isnt for three more weeks. how and the hell did this get leaked now? i call bs..

I know I'm late on this, but to those of you who said AI never got into a rhythm this year... AI has no rhythm anymore. He and T-Mac (as much as I love him), both need to hang it up. They're only tarnishing their images of what used to be THE two best scorers in the NBA.

 

[Pugz]

i completely agree. i really think they need to try just one more season and need to get on championship teams, take one more shot at a ring and then call it quits. i though they shoulda looked into that last season though, too.
