The Starting Five: Difference between on-field/court character and off-field/court character (Bullets Forever)

Thu, 21 Aug 2008 20:05:39 GMT

The Starting Five: Difference between on-field/court character and off-field/court character As I read this, I immediately thought of the Bonzi Wells and Tony Allen discussions we had, where we were talking about "character issues." Definitely an interesting read (and I agree with it, for the record).

Eyeing the prize: Nine potential trades to make in 2010 (Bullets Forever)

Thu, 31 Jul 2008 23:55:00 GMT

I hate to disappoint many of you, but I don't see the Wizards making any major changes to their roster this season. Other than potentially signing someone like Bonzi Wells for a one-year minimum contract , what you see is what you'll probably get for the duration of this season. Considering their payroll structure, a major move this season doesn't make sense. Their projected 2009/10...

Stern did the right thing and recommended Cuban for the Cubs ownership . Well done. Seattle fans will immediately point out how this is selfish and further reason Stern should be hung from his testicles. Bonzi Wells to Wiz is the talk at Bullets Forever . It definitely sounds like a fit. Another member of the " Oh, Kwame Brown is a devilishly brilliant idea !" crowd. We are not members....

What does signing Will Solomon say about the Raptors? (Arsenalist)

Tue, 29 Jul 2008 05:01:55 GMT

The multi-faceted player that Bryan Colangelo hinted at acquiring didn’t turn out to be Bonzi Wells or Michael Finley but Will Solomon. The Raptors have signed the 6′ 1″ guard to a contract for the upcoming season and it’s logical to think he’ll be playing the role of Darrick Martin. The combo-guard played [...]

Some assorted thoughts on this year's playoffs: The Wright Pick: Whenever I watch New Orleans play, I can't help but be intrigued by the play of Julian Wright. Coming into the playoffs, the biggest knock on New Orleans was its lack of a bench, and while they acquired Bonzi Wells, they still were very thin, particularly up front. Wright's only played about 11 minutes a game, but he's...

There is very little drop off in offensive and defensive production when the bench guys are in. So Scott can feel comfortable playing them early in the fourth while the thoroughbreds catch their...
