Around SBN: Terry Collins, David Wright, And The Mets/Brewers Kerfuffle

YES!!!!!!

I love AI, and I will always be grateful to him for his hard work, but this deal makes the Nuggets TONS better.  Our offense bogs down without a PG, and this solves that problem.

Wow wow wow wow wow wow wow.

Awesome.

I HAVE to go to Friday's game now and welcome Chaunce back to where he belongs.  I will have a Billups shirt.  What number is he gonna wear?

Reporting that Dice might be bought out. That’s a bummer, but I’m still loving the deal.

Good question about the number...

I was wondering the exact same thing lol. And i’m with you, i LOVE A.I. He was my favorite player until Melo came in the league and i was so happy when we brought him in. But i think this trade definitely makes sense for us and makes us better.

MELO!!!

This is crazy..

It makes sense, but we’re still only 3 games into the season. Two questions immediately spring to mind:

1) Why is Detroit doing this deal? I don’t see how Iverson makes them better.

2) Is this the right move for Denver so early? We need a good PG but this is a pretty radical trade.

I am not so sure…

I love AI too.

I hope he doesn’t score too many points for the Pistons and I hope Billups and Melo get along.

Exciting time to be alive…

Something new!

I’m just glad to see a new direction. A new… something. Anything! If we go into the playoffs and lose again 4-0 or 4-1 I may just lose my mind.

Now if we can just get Karl to uncross his arms and stop cleaning stuff out from his teeth with his tongue during the games and get more involved we’d really have something!

STIFF LIST (as of 4/26 by Andrew Feinstein)

1. METTA WORLD PEACE

Metta resorted back to Ron Ron last Sunday by clubbing James Hardenwith an "inadvertent celebratory elbow", landing him a 7-game suspension. Apparently, changing his name didn't prevent NBA commissioner David Stern from overlooking Metta's past behavior problems.

2. CHARLOTTE BOBCATS

The 'Cats are on the verge of securing the worst winning percentage in NBA history. Given that the guy who runs the team - Michael Jordan - had previously drafted Kwame Brown and Adam Morrison, should this really be a shock?

3. OKLAHOMA CITY THUNDER
The team that was supposedly built to overcome the lockout-shortened season managed to lose 7 of its last 14 games, ceding the Western Conference's 1-seed to the Spurs in the process. Their reward might be a first round matchup with defending champion Dallas.

4. BILLY HUNTER AND DEREK FISHER
With report after report coming out about NBPA union head Hunter's shady, nepotistic dealings and questions arising about Fisher's own role in dealing with NBA owners behind Hunter's back during the lockout, this off-the-court scandal could prove to be more exciting than the playoffs themselves!

5. STEVE NASH AND THE PHOENIX SUNS
The Suns are on this list for squandering the last few great seasons from Nash. Nash is on this list for his stupidly stubborn loyalty to a franchise as awful as the Suns.
