You think? I mean I don't have anything better to suggest because that's about as obvious as a travel could ever be, but I'm not sure I buy them swallowing a whistle on that because it was Wade as opposed to Chalmers or Cole.

That 7th Frankenstein-looking step is awesome, though. :lol:

What about guys who pick up shoes that fall off and throw them out of bounds (i.e. Wade, Jarrett Jack)?

Trade!

http://www.boston.com/sports/basketball ... wford.html

The Celtics have traded guards Jordan Crawford and MarShon Brooks to the Golden State Warriors, a league source tells the Globe's Baxter Holmes. In a three-team deal, the Warriors will send point guard Toney Douglas to the Heat, while Miami sends center Joel Anthony to Boston. The Celtics will receive a projected future 1st-round pick and future 2nd-round pick in the deal.

Rajon Rondo's impending return and Boston's rebuilding plans made Crawford expendable. When Rondo returns, he'll join a backcourt rotation of Avery Bradley, Jerryd Bayless, and Phil Pressey. Crawford, who is making $2.16 million this season, averaged 13.7 points, 5.7 assists, and 3.1 rebounds in almost 31 minutes per game this season will the Celtics. Brooks has seen very limited action since being traded to Boston over the summer.

After figuring heavily in Miami's rotation three seasons ago, the 6-foot-9-inch Anthony was averaging 3.1 minutes per game for the Heat this year. He is owed $3.8 million in salary next season.

Per Adrian Wojnarowski of Yahoo! Sports, if the Sixers don't make the playoffs this season or next, the first-round pick turns into two second-rounders.

The news that Crawford was on the block, was first reported by New York Post columnist Peter Vecsey. In a tweet very early Wednesday morning, Rondo's impending return.

I like this trade a lot for the Warriors. Their bench is often terrible so to get Crawford who can get hot without sacrificing a pick or taking on too much salary is great.

Played 4 minutes in the 1st half and has 6 points 2 rebounds. It is yawnable but he already is halfway to what Hibbert averages.

Great to see Oden out there for a few minutes last night. Hopefully he wakes up this morning and his legs/knees feel okay.


Also, a belated so long to The Warden, Joel Anthony. He's a pretty awful basketball player, but I enjoyed the "M-V-P" chants he got at the FT line back in the 2011 playoffs. :peace:
