I'll let Shel tell you how much better he is than his 82 rating

It is no disrespect to you jsence and I completely understand that some guys play better or worse than their ratings.
I have played with Matthews and I know his shot is a challenge to get use to.

Again, I mean no disrespect to anyone about this.

its a horrible trade, going to make VT much better but if Niddler proposed it and he understands how bad the offer is and still wants to do it then i'm not going to stop him

This is like your parents saying to you "I'm not mad at you, just very disappointed"

None taken at all man, you're a solid dude in my book, always have been.

Just not thrilled that Chase just got the best player on the game and his team took little hit; you should've made him give up Bayless

The King is taking his talents to DC!!!

Wizards accept the trade offer from Cleveland. This is a big move for both parties, which most notably be highlighted by "LBJ and Iggy".

From my perspective, as much as LBJ and Iggy were the main pieces, the other players involved collectively were integral in making this happen

If you match up players directly, the numbers add up on paper, but to those not directly involved the 'names' don't hold as much weight.

We effectively moved 2 starters (Bibby, Oden) for two people that WILL start (LBJ and Dalembart).

I had Dalembart last season, so getting him back in the lineup is solid for me. Losing Bibby is tough but having Jarret Jack as a potential back up makes me confident I didn't lose too much on the bench.

More than likely going to promote Jerryd Bayless back to the starting lineup with Jack anchoring the bench. As for Samardo, I became a fan of his at Mississippi State, but he'll have to battle for time.

All and all, I'm happy with this trade and Niddler appears to be too, but if Dave (Stern) wants to block it, I'll go about my business.

nothing is being blocked, the trade is approved and already been reflected on rosters and transaction page

not at all man. do what you want. i was just stating an opinion.

and just for the record, i have zero say. its daves league. I am just a peon like the rest

Lakers get:
D. Rose, S. Young, S. Livingston, L. Harangody

Wolves get:
B. Jennings, J. Flynn, C. Brewer, D. Favors

Brandon Jennings is turrible in this game. Just sayin...

i hope Sam Young didn't buy a property in Minneapolis.

updated on front page and on season 2 rosters thread

D. Rose and D. Howard on the same team should be fun... can't wait to monitor that teams bench minutes

LoL, I didn't think Doc would trade Young, that part was his idea. I figured there was a Pitt connection there so I didn't bother through most of our talks.

Shel - I liked Jennings a lot, so fast and an easy shot. Unless his D is just awful, I can't see why you struggled with him. Consistency?

I played with the Bucks a ton for scrims since I had 3 BUcks players on my season 1 team, and I just sucked with him. Unless it was an uncontested layup, I couldn't hit a shot to save my life.

He's really quick and can be good in the passing game. But for me, I just can't hit a jumper or any shot in traffic with the guy. Many of 3 for 14 games with him lol.

Trade confirmed and Sam Young left my office screaming trader or soemthing like that.

I love Jennings much more then Rose. Couldnt hit anything with Rose but was feeling it with Jennings.

While he was cursing you for being a trader, he probably meant traitor.

Doc is pretty active, so he might have meant both
