thouhts? i like the trade for both teams to be honest, I think miami needed a low post defender like jermaine who i think fits perfectley alongside haslem and toronto have got an athletic 3 man that theyev always craved. moon is athletic but theres moon and then theres marion.
-
Good trade for both teams. Now I get to watch JO in playoffs again 8)
-
^^ haha yeah. i think its a goo trad for both teams. this could be the spark that gets toronto going as well. it would be ironic if the raptors pinched the heats playoff spot.
-
it will b interesting to see JO and Haslem coexist together, they have never liked each other.
-
bad move for Miami IMO.
lol, how many players have gotten traded the day after they hit a game winning shot in the previous game? :P
not saying thats the reason they shouldnt have done it, just curious; he is probably the first lol.
-
Raptors have no chance at playoffs this year, my Pacers have a better chance than
Raps to make it this year but we won't either
-
JO is a bum
-
whats the history wtih JO and haslem?
-
if JO stays injured like he was in toronto its a bad move for the heat lol
-
JO is a bum
I couldn't agree more! If you are a six time all star I would say you are definitely a Bum
-
Im glad we made this trade. JO has been a let down IMO this year for us. Hes played good at times, but definatly hasnt lived up to the expectations I had before the season. He came into camp saying he lost 15 pounds, his knees were 100% and he was the healthiest and felt the best hed been in years.
I wont expect as much from Marion coming in, but I think he suits Toronto's roster better than JO did. JO was a solid presence in the paint with shot blocking, but dont forget Marion still grabs more rebounds per game.
-
That's a better trade for Miami ... Moon is a decent role player , can start at the 3 , plus they got a good post presence with J.O .. nothing that is going to bring them to the top but still I see some improvments ... It's a horrible trade for Toronto though .. Banks won't have any PT and Marion won't fit in their system .... Marion at the 3 ? = moving back Bargnani to PF = garbage inside D ... Marion is not a good defender at the PF position either ... I just don't see what he can bring to this team
-
oh ya, and Im glad Moon got dealt too, he totally shit the bed this year! The guy fuckin sleeps on defence!

I agree Moon is terrible but I think JO is better than Marion although both have obviously fell off

If JO stays healthy I agree, hes is prolly a better player than Marion, but thats a BIG IF. Its too bad he didnt live up to the hype he created in Toronto, I really wanted him to do well here.

injury prone for cancer! great trade!

Me to man, I wanted to see Bosh and JO succeed together

I think if JO woulda played more games they would have had much better chemistry playing together, but since JO was in and out of the lineup all season it was hard to develope consistant play between the two of them.

fuck am i happy moon is gone, that dude is fuckin garbage.

I hear that!!

i hope this bodes well for my fantasy numbers.
toronto ain't going no where with marion. stupid trade for them.
-
Marion is a decent clean-up guy, but he's definitely more valuable to a team than JO...
Spice...are you still rooting for the Raptors now that JO was dealt to Miami? LOL.
-
Damn I was hoping Miami would trade for Amare. But looks like they wouldn't do the deal unless Phoenix took Marion back. Decent trade, atleast Miami got to keep Beasley.
O'neal / Haslem / Beasley / Wade / Chalmers.
vs.
Bargnani / Bosh / Marion / Parker / Calderon
-
i like the trade as a Raps fan
-
I gotta hope for D-Wade's sake that JO can stay healthy...Wade and Marion weren't on top of the division or anything but they were keeping the team above water atleast.

How am I a fool? if you really think JO currently has more value than Marion, then you're an idiot...
quit being a pussy and answer the fucking question.

JO>>>Marion all day everyday
And NIK yeah I watch a ton of NBA and yeah there are some players and teams other then Pacers that I enjoy watching when pacers arent playing but everyone that knows me knows it's always been 100% Pacers for me, I don't know why Im even defending myself with this, NIK I'm just as big as a Pacer fan as you are a Laker fan and the funny thing is you know that's true, you are just bored and trying to stir up shit
-
to me both are worthless, when you boil it down. neither are franchise shifting players and both are past their primes so i say ehhhh. JO might help maimi more because it allows udonis haslem to move to Power instead of playing center, and give the heat a little presence in the middle. but if they win any more games with JO i don't think it'll be that much more than if they would have kept marion.

why are you getting so insecure? i asked you if you were still gunna root for the Raps...you made a thread about that, not me. I ain't tryna stir shit up, just answer the question. LOL
JO would be better than Marion if he could stay healthy and effective...his injuries have fucked him up. JO playing his best is better than Marion playing his best, but Marion is way more consistent. JO in his prime was a beast, but right now, Marion>JO...PeACe
