I heard AV, Wally, Pavlovic.

Riddle me this riddle me that, Abraham hit me with a wiffleball bat.

Also regarding the 12/27 game, it looks like Bell is likely to miss that game due to his ankle.

Ah, one of my favorite idioms (how big of a nerd am I). When in Rome tops the list though. One time I said that and someone actually said, "When in Rome what?"

Anywho...

This is a bit exciting. I'm expecting to be let down, but exciting nonetheless.

sooooo, just bringing DJ in for 1-2 games? makes a lot of sense. Why didn't we do that when Bell missed significant time earlier this year??

Just spit it out. Sorry, I can't be bothered with word games. Maybe I'm grumpy cause I broke my wrist over past couple of days and everything takes ten times longer including seeing through the forest.

I'm sorry to hear about your wrist

Sorry about your wrist. People can't spit it out or else they will lose their sources. And this board doesn't need the drama that was generated when that proposed trade was leaked via e-mail last year.

I believe we are on the same page.....just because Jones is back doesn't mean he is staying.....besides I was told that Jones is a part of TO's possee.

No worries. The fog will clear soon.

Thank heavens someone did. Our first rounder, CV, and an expiring for Kirk? I'd still be bitching if that went down.

Yes, the maples want more sunlight and the oaks ignore their pleas. Now the trees are all kept equal by hatchet, axe, and saw...

Ridnour has the flu... Bell hurt. why not play Jones.

So, Damon Jones is re-joining the team in preparation of a possible trade that might help the team possibly in the future...maybe.

I love cryptic information

I am still standing strong on my original opinion that we will be landing either Wilcox, Collison, or Joe Smith.

Can anyone tell me if it is even a possibility of getting Lamar Odom in a trade that somehow involves Lue and some extras? I know that is a pipe dream but I'm just curious if such a deal would even work.

That's my best guess too. DJ or Lue will eventually be traded for some vet. big.

Skiles does not sound enthused.

"I know Damon is a high-level NBA shooter," Bucks coach Scott Skiles said. "That's where he has kind of made his mark. We'll see. I don't have a closed mind about anything.

"We've played much better lately. It's hard to even comment about, because I haven't coached him, haven't been around him. So we'll see."

DJ, Gadz, Elson for Dwight Howard to play PF ???

Such a darn big forest there must be a tree in it somewhere?

I just posted the exact same thing... sounds pretty uncomfortable with the idea of him joining the team.

Haha, awesome. There is unrest in the forest.

If we trade Redd for Boozer we'll need another player who can hit open threes, but I'd rather if that player could also play at least as good defense as Redd plays.
