Not only did the Lakers defeat the defending champion Spurs (I know, I know, without Duncan or Parker) for their fourth W in a row, but they also recieved the very best news of the 12 months:Kobe Bryant is pleased and is glad he did not get traded. What a turnaround from the tumultuos offseason. The 2007-08 NBA time of year couldnt’t have started any superior for the Boston Celtics. When Ray and Garnett came in the offseason, we all anticipated beneficial issues, but not this. Here are the Fab Five:1. two. Plus, we are however waiting around on a absurd Rasheed Wallace quote, which may perhaps bump them up to multitude one. Minnesota Timberwolves: In some cases I ponder if Kevin Mchale is someplace in downtown Boston, in a superior-rise with Danny Ainge, laughing and saluting shots of their glory days, when seeing KG and the Celtics tear up the league. There has to be SOME good reason he constructed that trade, ideal? Appropriate?2. Miami Heat: Wade is overrated and Shaq is about the hill. Right after enjoying the Nets get outplayed by a banged-up Sacremento Kings squad last night all I can say is this: the Nets stink. There is no purpose for the Nets to always keep Kidd. They are 10-15! They aren’t contending for everything this yr, so why hold an getting older and declining star. Who would get Kidd: hmmmm, let me identify the teams – just about every simple one particular in the freakin’ NBA. Who would take Carter: hmmmm, we know Toronto won’t, but someone out there will be eager to give up a pair of vets and a second rounder for this bum. Save the Nets. Trade Carter. Begin over..
