    Sure a trade wouldn't hurt the team, but it wouldn't help either. I wouldn't bother.

    I would jump at this trade opportunity. Unfortunately, the GMs of the other teams in the league are not r****ded, so trades actually have to be somewhat balanced, either in terms of talent of by providing some other benefit.

    Not Stephon, their games are too similar, but I would trade Steve for Baron Davis anyday though.

    Maybe we can find just trade each of our player for a better player. For instance, Cato for Wallace would be nice. I'm sure the rest of the league will help our cause. :rolleyes: I am so sick of these trade threads! This team is 8 - 4 on the early season and still trying to find it's way. And yet, there are fans that just talk about trades. Why don't u guys wait til this team is below 500 and have lost 4 to 5 in a row before doing stuff like this. Then it would make more sense.

    If you guys think Steve is selfish then you don't want Marbury!

    The Suns coach recently praised Marbury for sharing the ball, and Marbury's response was "That's bull****."

    It was in Sunday's Chronicle, where they wrap up all the NBA stuff. I can't believe he would call BS on that!

    baron is on what you call a hot streak. He is not going to average 25 ppg at the end of the season. he just isnt that talented. If there is a gaurd that will score that much it will be steve becasue he is the most talented scoring wise. Also baron will hae a short carrer unless he losses some weight.

    I prefer Steve over Baron or Stephon. I prefer the Rockets records over the Suns', or Hornets' records.

    Yeah, Baron's having an unbelievable streak. To think he's going to continue playing @ this level ALL season long isn't too realistc. And I agree he is a little plump for his size.

    starbury can't dunk? I once saw a highlight where he reverse dunked a putback on a fast break. I don't know about you, but i've NEVER seen anyone do that.
