Batum was a free agent and I wanted to sign n trade the 7th pick and change to blaze for Batum. They weren't totally sold on the guy last year as he was in a funk a little.

I wouldn't trade Barnes for 10 Rudy gays. Or other vets like deng etc. no way. However, Batum was the one guy that lets you matchup w durant and Lebron and was ready NOW and still young w plenty of years in the tank left AND he is a good passer which fit w us so well.....he isn't a one on one guy but a team guy. He played awesome in international ball last summer in part due to more team oriented play.

Lebron looked like he's not 100 percent - Argentina Warrior 2013-01-10 23:11:50 (32 views)

but they have wade, bosh, etc. no excuse to lose. - WsFTLOL 2013-01-11 10:42:37 (16 views)

True. But Lebron probably needs a bit of rest, ideally when they play the Warriors. - Argentina Warrior 2013-01-11 14:22:19 (15 views)
