!! David Stern...they just shedding 18 million in salary and will undoubtedly amnesty Lewis. You won't get letters from teams complaining about this !!. Since when does Rashard Lewis command so much on the market?

I like the deal for the Wizards if they can get the coaching and proper teaching in addition to the talent.

wiz got[..]d IMO

traded a valuable huge expiring contract for two bad contracts

they are pretty much tied into fighting for the 8th seed for the next couple of years..

the 11 games he played we were 7-4 and our opponents only averaged 85 points

Better than the Sixers [pic]

Ariza is solid. Beal is a lock unless Bobcats trade the pick to the Cavs.

lol nah with a st@ble season I expect nothing less than 5th [pic] with all the BS we went through, we were one win away from making the 6th seed and playing the pacers, which we very well could have beat in the 1st round.

Toronto, Cleveland, and Washington fighting for the 7th and 8th spots could get real interesting tho [pic]

Ariza makes 7 million a year, that's not a bad contract, Okafor's contract is over in 2014

dont confuse bad contracts with serviceable players. rashard was a bad contract. okafor and ariza are both.

the New CBA is taking care of all of that. no more crazy contracts in like 10-15 yrs, once the current crop of players trickle out

whats all the salt being tossed around? yall acting like 7/8 in the playoffs aint enough. wall needs to go through this become a successful player all around. we only have won 20-29 wins each of the last 4 seasons. any playoffs would be good.

the bucks are losing ilyasova.
philly lost lou williams
injuries could happen from anywhere. but lets first try to get 30 wins.

name someone they were getting with that expiring contract. they dont want more youth.

its obvious they want to put vets around wall crawford veesely and whoever they draft

it was a smart trade let wall develop with vets around him and then when there contracts expire you can go out and bring in people who can help wall and this draft pick get over the top

Wizards won...

06-20-2012, 02:01 PM

if wiz could get beal and novak they are set, 5-6 seed

06-20-2012, 02:02 PM

How did the Wizards win?? Not sure blowing out your salary cap for an 8 seed is considered a win.
