Ersan Ilyasova might be a FREE AGENT shortly

[A.I]

No I mean the time he packaged the pick for JO( total bust) while Ryan Anderson, Ibaka, Batum and Deandre Jordan we're still on board or the time he traded the first round pick for JJ ( who was a big failure his first stop here) while Cory Joseph and Jimmy Butler we're still aboard.

Oh and let's not forget he wanted to package that pick ( which ended up being top 8! Not mid first round) for Steve Nash ( who was on his last legs) before Lowry but they said no luckily.

Colangelo was good in making Toronto a treadmill team that only made it to the playoffs twice in 7 years ( both exit in the first round) and for that he was a tool!

Lets not forget the biggest failure of them all, keeping Bargnani for so long...

You mean that time he traded a mid first rounder for some point guard on Houston? Yeah what a tool

Somethings up with BC. How many more front court guys does Philly want ? They were overloaded to begin with before this deal and it could be viewed as swapping Grant for a protected future first round pick and Illysaova was thrown in like a packet of ketchup into a take out bag.

They could waive Ersan...
They may be finally getting ready to trade one of Noel or Okafor for a desparately needed PG.
Not sure what BC is up to... but this sure looks there is another shoe to fall.

Philly has to do something... they still suck large and Colangelo will not want to finish behind Brooklyn or Orlando yet again.

Hard to see how the Raps would be better off with Ante(lots of letters go here)po than Lowry.
Really hard.
Really Really hard.

being transperent .... I am not a fan of Ante(lots of letters go here)po .. I think he will always be the guy with lots of potential that never materialized.....

He would have had less of an impact than Lowry would have on this team the past couple of years.. but he's a 21 year old kid and not a 30 year old veteran. He's a swiss army knife. Can play point or PF. Can block shots and pass the ball.

Lots of ways to use him. Milwaukee is a bad team though, and they lost their best shooter. It's tough to play there. I think I'd still take Lowry over Po if I go back in time and make the decision for Bryan (even with hindsight).. but it would be a really hard one to make.

That mid first rounder would have been Giannis. I love Lowry, and he's right there with Vince as all time great.. but Giannis is pretty good player.

You mean the 100 million dollar man, Steven Adams? Don't disrespect him ever again.

oops! well I am so used to Colangelo throwing first round picks like they were pennies that I misread the whole thing.

Already reports that OKC wants to use the cap space from this deal to make a Rudy Gay trade.

Bahaha that would be hilarious..Russell and Rudy...and nobody else ever touched the ball again..

a downgrade from KD but an upgrade over their present SF

[Hotshot]

OKC is the team that traded their pick. Not Philly.

[planetmars]

OKC also got Jerami Grant.. and they could use some wing depth.

[enlightenment]

As much as I want a reliable stretch 4 to take Pattersons shots, I think Id prefer to keep Pattersons defence and continuity
