I wanted to ask about that when everyone was talking about them "reuniting", because I knew they weren't on good terms.
Anyway, all of your sources sounded legit. Thanks for the info.
Sorry to beat a dead horse...But now I'm hearing that Bibby and his dad's issue had nothing to do with the breakdown in negotiations. Bibby was okay with going, but the Kings just didn't think they were getting enough back, or they thought they were taking on too much in long term money and the injury issue with Baron Davis.
Mike Bibby would be a perfect fit for the Spurs
Bibby plays no defense whatsoever, his shooting has been steadily declining over the last four years, and considering the offenses he's played in, has assist numbers only slightly better than Parker's.
Other than that, he's great.
Playoff Bibby > Playoff Parker
you want to see the stat comparison from last years' series?
Parker 22.2 /4.7A/3.5R 51% 33% 89%
Bibby 16.7/5.2A/3.8R 35% 35% 90%
the grass is not always greener on the other side
It's amazing that two playoff series 4 years ago give him this rep. How about his performance in that Seattle series in 2005?
Mike Bibby is nowhere near his best. I'd take Devin Harris, Stackhouse and Croshere (exp contracts) if Dallas would do it. I heard Boston were trying to offer Jefferson, Ratliff, Telfair and West(or a first round pick) (providence journal). That almost sounds too good to be true, and if the Celtics really offered that, the deal should have been done by now.
It sucks to be a Sixer fan cuz the probability of being screwed in a trade is too high. We're trading freaking Allen Iverson. This is a lose-lose situation.
I heard that 6ers wanted Kevin and Maloofs said no basically but I've heard so much in the last 3 days, I don't know what to believe anymore.
odds on iverson staying put for this season?
WTF does Baron Davis have to do with a trade between Sacto and Philly?
http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/column...arc&id=2695408What they're saying on the Allen Iverson grapevine: The Answer has let it be known that he doesn't want to play in Charlotte.
What they're also saying in front-office circles: Iverson isn't thrilled about the prospect of relocating to Sacramento, either.
What I find myself saying whenever I hear such sentiments: How do players scare teams off so easily when almost no one in the NBA possesses a no-trade clause?
The Bobcats, let's face it, would be skittish about trading for A.I. even if he welcomed the move, given owner Bob Johnson's obvious comfort level with a roster that doesn't pay a single player more than $5.5 million. Although he badly wants to fill up his building and ranks as one of the league's most outspoken owners regarding the struggles of small-market teams, Johnson's hesitancy to sanction an Iverson deal doesn't surprise anyone. You can safely surmise that the little man's knack for selling tickets doesn't stand out to the Bobs as much the $39.8 million left on his contract after this season and Iverson's hard-to-handle history.
But here's the thing.
Iverson doesn't possess the ultimate hammer. NBA front-office sources confirmed Tuesday that his contract does not contain a no-trade clause.
In fact, as far as I know, the Lakers' Kobe Bryant is the only NBA player who has one.
Why?...
Maybe 3 years ago, not today.
Remember, Parker was banged up badly in game 6 of the Sacto series and played the Dallas series injured.
People should get off Parker's back. Barring injury, I reckon he'll star in the playoffs this year and finally shut the naysayers up.
Philly and Sac tried to bring Golden State in to facilitate a deal...I mentioned it earlier in the thread.
yea. he didnt want to go to CHA. So they stopped it.
this topic is BS and should be locked.
we will lock it soon as you can ride the adult rides at the fair

he says that Golden St got involved as a third team.
That's not really fair. He was going against Luke Ridnour, whose locker is in the same room as Gary Payton's used to be.It's amazing that two playoff series 4 years ago give him this rep. How about his performance in that Seattle series in 2005?
Bibby's perpetually overrated, but he's essentially Chauncey Billups minus the post-up game. Considering the other options, it's not too bad an offer.
Iverson is heading out to Indiana.
Should be finalized sometime on friday.
Marquis Daniels can not be traded until this Friday, so thats the hold up.
Iverson wants to play in Indiana, and thats the best team that can give up talent, and still have a chance to go to the finals...especially out East.
Marquis Daniels, Tinlsey, and some other player/players.....possibly a pick.
Source?
Some other players? Sounds suspect...
Golden State is making it really tough.
Davis, Biedrins, and Monta Ellis....
However, GS does not want to let go of Ellis, and would prefer to work out another deal...
Yet, Indiana is still the place AI wants to be...
