Congratulations to the Boston Celtics and especially to you Kevin Garnett you have been waiting for this your entire life and i've never seen anyone so happy after winning an NBA title since Jordan the year his dad died.

Man, it seems like every elimination game that the Lakers seem sure to lose at halftime, they just give up. Going back to the Game 7 a couple years ago with Phoenix, last year with Phoenix, and yesterday...

Well, at least Radmonovic has some trade value...right? Shit...

Same for the guy who survived 11 stabbings and some dude whose injury cost me in fantasy, oh well.

At least the latter's gets the moment under the sun.

That's nice for Garnett. He did tasted the dream that he never tasted before in his 12 year-career. I like Garnett as a player but for his team is concerned, I hate what they are right now, Champions. I am still cheering for Lakers although they didn't win the Championship but they will retaliate next year with Andrew Bynum on their side.

it's been two days and i'm already sick of this celtics "NEW ERA OF GLORY DAYS ALL HAIL KG OMGZ EPIC" bullshit.

eugh.

Same here, Buddhist. I'm so sick of all the Celtic players starting from Brian Scalabrine to Paul Pierce and also Doc Rivers. I hate his damn oily face.

Anyway, is that true that Arenas and Butler will traded to LA Lakers for Derek Fisher and Chris Mihm?
I heard some rumours about it.

Hell no. Teams are allowed only a single one sided trade per year, so says ancient basketball law. Also the Wizards don't owe the Lakers a huge favor like the Grizzlies did, and I find it hard to find that the Wiz would just roll over and be the Lakers bitch in that, because that's basically what they would be if that went through. Also think of that starting lineup.

PG: Arenas
SG: Kobe
SF: Butler
PF: Gasol
C: Bynum

It'd be like a mini all star team, and I doubt the Wiz want that happening, and the Lakers would get rid of Odom for being...idk bald? At the very least the Lakers would need to throw in one of thier young players or Odom along with the other two potential players.

Also Areana's risky knee shouldn't be making his value drop as much as it has. He can be one of the best scorers in the game (when healthy T_T)

Guys, I think that it was a dumb move to have traded Shaq for Marion.

Or maybe something like this:
PG: Arenas
SG: Kobe
SF: Odom
PF: Gasol
C: Bynum

---> You can place Butler in the bench because he is their energizer in Washington like Sasha Vujacic's role in LA.

Jerry West was in on the Gasol deal guys

i know it.

For the Suns or the Heat? Remember the Heat were out of the contention when they dealt Shaq.

The Suns became a good rebounding team after the trade but for the Heat, it became worst.

It would've mattered, in time they'll have to start rebuilding around D-Wade(if he's healthy enough) barring a miracle. Also, Shaq wanted to get number five and the Suns provides one of the more better chance to do so.

Well, they (Heat) have a new coach, new system, new young player (their rookie player), and a new set of roster for them. Maybe somehow, they will improve next season or maybe possibly, get back on the playoffs. On the other side, Suns is known with their run and gun style. Shaq can't adjust on the Suns system but they have also a new coach that will change their kind of play that Shaq can relate on.

Remember Shaq is near the end of his career and so in the end the trade happens to be for the best for both Shaq and the Heat.

I concur. Well, I think this is the last season for the Big Fellow. He's old enough to play.

Anyone see the video of Shaq rapping and ripping on Kobe for not being able to win the title without him? It's quite the captivating performance.

That was hilarious, it headlined that edition of Sportscenter, they brought Stephen A. to analyze it, they tried to bill it it as the nexst big chapter in the Kobe-Shaq relationship. I guess it must have been a slow day.

In my opinion, the 1984 Draft is the best draft in the NBA history.

Just as much as Celtic loyalties were in on the KG deal...it all works out, unless you're a small market city.

The Indiana Pacers have agreed in principle to send six-time All-Star Jermaine O'Neal to the Toronto Raptors for point guard T.J. Ford and the 17th pick in Thursday's NBA draft, a league executive said Wednesday. Toronto also will send Rasho Nesterovic and another role player to match up with O'Neal's salary. O'Neal is owed $44 million over the next two seasons. The Pacers would then hold the 11th and 17th picks in the draft.

The Hornets have agreed to send their first-round draft pick, the 27th overall, to the Portland Trail Blazers in exchange for cash that could help New Orleans add a key free agent to a rising young squad. As of Wednesday, the Hornets did not have a second-round choice in the draft. It was traded to Houston last season as part of a deal that sent Bobby Jackson to the Rockets in exchange for Bonzi Wells and Mike James. Houston later dealt that pick, the 56th overall, to Seattle.

For me, the 1993 NBA Draft is the best draft in NBA History.

Oh well, JO might get hurt each and every year (At least it feels that way), but I still prefer having him as the Raptors Center instead of Rasho Nesterovic.

The Milwaukee Bucks plan to send forwards Yi Jianlian and Bobby Simmons to the New Jersey Nets for forward Richard Jefferson, a person with direct knowledge of the deal said Thursday. Milwaukee has been looking to rid itself of several bad contracts. It will trade the rookie it selected last season with the No. 6 pick along with the rest of Simmons' contract. Simmons has two years and a little more than $20 million left on his deal.

Raptors also got Jermaine O'Neal for TJ Ford, Rasho Nesterovic and the No. 17 pick in the draft today. Now the Pacers can get rid of Tinsley and they have two picks in the first round to pick up some talent.
