Question for everyone, where do you rank John Paxson among basketball GM's? If he pulls off this trade w/o giving up Deng, do you rank him higher or lower? [/ QUOTE ] He's somewhere between 2 and 7.

Buford is #1 it's not disputable I would also put Dumars over everyone else by a healthy margin at #2 3-7 is totally muddled and based on preferences

Re: Lakers and Bulls discussing Kobe trade daily
I have a hard time rating Dumars #2 based solely on the Darko pick. I mean seriously. Guy could have Wade or Bosh and the team likely would be a real spurs dynasty, not a usually very good team like it is now.

He went for the home-run pick. To be honest Darko performed as badly as he possibly could. Also Wade and Bosh were well below the big 3 in terms of draft potential. James Darko/ Carmelo everyone else

ok.. fine. you're right. Melo. How does going for the homerun pick with the #2 constitute being a good GM? [/ QUOTE ] No, but with all the knowledge available to him I don't think it can be constituted as a LARGE knock on him.

Re: Lakers and Bulls discussing Kobe trade daily
hmm? he knew he'd have his starting five together for a long time, so he could take the time on developing a multi-faceted big man center who would save him $$ down the line. at worst darko was expected to be an above-average big man for 30 mpg.
he was right about the first part. he was wrong about the second, but so was everyone else, and his veteran-loving stubborn coach sure didn't help.
