So...if Lewis resigns...anyone else thinking about how it will be to watch Rashard Lewis, Ray Allen, and Kevin Durant on the same floor?

They would be able to score pretty easily, when you count Wilcox too.

They would be fun to watch. I really hope they stay in Seattle even though the stadium is in a real crummy spot.

I might be wrong but I really think he's going to sign with Orlando. Orlando needs a player like him and they have a lot of cap room with Grant Hill leaving.

I hope so, I guess it would be bad for the Bulls actually but Id like Orlando to sign Lewis and Milwaukee to sign Billups. Give the East some respectability with teams like Orlando, Chicago, Cleveland, Milwaukee, and Toronto. Detroit would still be good id imagine because I think with Billups gone Prince would take on a bigger role and thrive with it.

I personally wouldn't mind an easy ride to the finals every year. We know the Western Conference team is going to be tough no matter what so it would be nice to make it to the finals without too much of a struggle until the eastern finals.

If Billups goes anywhere, I think it would be Atlanta. However, I just don't see him leaving his team.

No one could see Ben Wallace leaving either. Billups would be absolutely perfect for Atlanta if Detroit isn't willing to pony up the $. They need a veteran and they need a point guard.

In terms of FA's and a team like Orlando, let's not forget that Vinsanity may catch their eye as well, so they do have options for what to do with that cap room.

Not true. At the beginning of last year, yes. But by the end he and flip were feuding, remember the famous final 4th quarter he got benched to end the playoffs?

I think VC is much more what orlando needs. They already have turgolu to play the 3, and his outside shooting would complement vince's game very well. If only they had a reliable pg, they'd be pretty dangerous. Still, vince leaving the nets means they'd now suck, so its really trading one pseudo contender for another, as opposed to adding stars to our conferfence like rashard lewis. Dodging playing oden and durant in the playoffs besides the finals for the next 5 years is not something to overlook. Atlanta will probably take marvin williams...i mean josh smith....i mean josh childress....i mean al harrington....i mean brandon wright anyway.

In the category of Chaos theory... Eddy Curry's tip dunk at the end of the regular season cost the Bulls Greg Oden. True story. The Bulls fell from the 6th spot to 9th in the lottery with the Knicks win on the last day of the season. The Seattle Sonics slid into the #6 spot, and won the draft lottery from there.

Either your're assuming Portland will take Durant or you just got Seattle and Portland confused. Seattle has the 2nd pick not the first. Either way, Durant would have looked mighty nice in a Bulls uniform.

Yeah, I don't know why I said Seattle, I meant Portland.

Damn Eddy Curry...


however, had he not been dealt to the Knicks, it would have been the Knicks hoping and praying for that pick.
