I think their best bet would be to trade their top players for expirings or shorter deals, and draft picks if at all possible.

I knew I forgot someone. As I was typing that I kept thinking I thought they had two picks but for the life of me all I could remember was Sweetney.
Scott Layden shot the Knicks and now Isiah is holding a pillow over their heads to finish the job. Of course the biggest denominator is Dolan.
But all these bad moves just run together. Yup, forgot about Frye.

To resurrect at the All-Star break...
I watched a really entertaining Suns-Warriors shootout on Thursday night. The Warriors at home are tough.

How crazy is it that there may very well be a team in the West TWELVE freakin' games over .500 and not make the play-offs?????
True. I'd like to see a 16 team nba playoff bracket based on team records, regardless of Conference affiliation for this year only.
This may be why Kobe is putting off surgery,especially with the trading deadline looming, and other teams, such as Denver and Sacramento re-establishing their health. The Lakers could well miss the playoffs entirely if Bryant and Bynam both are forced to miss multiple games.
As weak as the East is, the Cavs can possibly make it back to the finals as currently constructed, so long as everyone is healthy. Several teams are still in the playoff hunt despite the fact that they are at least 10 games under. 500
As of today, 3 teams in the East have won 30+ games.
In the West, on the other hand, 9 teams have won 30+ games.
I was watching First and 10 on ESPN, and they posed a good question. Which do you like better, fan voting, or celebrity judges for the slam dunk contest?
Personally, I like fan voting. I can't stand watching the contest, and the celebrities get it all wrong. It's like the Nate Robinson thing. He shouldn't have won. He took like 20 attempts at one dunk.
-LTlabnerIf you can't build a winning team with that core a fire-sale isn't the solution. Selling the franchise, moving them to Nashville and converting GABP into a used car lot is.

#1 Lesson of the NBA first half:
You can't stop Leon Powe, you can only hope to contain him.
#2 Lesson
You can't trade Devan George, you can only hope to release him.
