Seattle's GM used to work for Danny Ferry in San Antonio. With his help the Bulls were able to make that ridiculous trade to help out Danny Ferry and the Cavs. Something smells fishy. Can we get a re-do on that trade, pretty please. This is one of the worst deals in Chicago Team History.

Okay, the Argentinean back-up center isn't really a part of the frito-lay family. And in terms of direct value? This is about 30 cents on the dollar for RJ. I mean, Bruce Bowen, Kurt Thomas and Fabricio? Outside of crippling the Spurs frontcourt depth? They win the deal. Great...

I know it's waaay too premature to give up on a team already in this early NBA season, but it really looks like the Spurs will struggle mightily without star Manu Ginobili, who is expected to be out with an ankle injury until at least mid-December. The Spurs have started out 0...
