NBA Team Gifts

/ April 1, 2004

InsideHoops.com compiled random gifts, suggestions or advice for each team. Some serious stuff, some nonsense. There's no real game plan here. Just read and enjoy.

ATLANTIC DIVISION

Boston Celtics - Danny Ainge trading Paul Pierce this summer for Shawn Bradley, to form a twin towers with Raef LaFrentz.

Miami Heat - Stan Van Gundy fashion show, for the fans to enjoy.

New Jersey Nets - The return of Chris Morris and Joe Barry Carroll.

New York Knicks - Rehiring of Scott Layden so he can sign Herb Williams to a six-year, $35 million contract. Also, he can trade Stephon Marbury for a handful of nice role players to back-up Shandon Anderson and Kurt Thomas.

Orlando Magic - Special-edition videos so Magic fans can always remember the great 2003-04 season.

Philadelphia 76ers - A "How not to get injured" manual, distributed to every player on the team. Also, a new trainer.

Washington Wizards - A name change, back to the Bullets. And a time machine so they can undo all the ridiculous trades this team made in the 1990's.

CENTRAL DIVISION

Atlanta Hawks - 300 new Hawks fans, so the current 175 fans don't feel so alone.

Chicago Bulls - The return of Scott Williams, who carried Michael Joran to several championships.

Cleveland Cavaliers - A chance to redo the 2003 draft, so instead of making a mistake by drafting LeBron James they could take Boris Diaw.

Detroit Pistons - Related to the Cavs gift, but serious - a chance to take Carmelo Anthony instead of Darko Milicic. Even if they don't need him right now.

Indiana Pacers - A younger Reggie Miller. Imagine the current squad with a 1995 Miller.

Milwaukee Bucks - Bring back that Alcinder kid.

New Orleans Hornets - A surprise re-signing of Larry Johnson, who at this point really does move like a grandma.

Toronto Raptors - More fans. The Raptors only seem to have 800 billion fans. Certainly more are needed.

MIDWEST DIVISION

Dallas Mavericks - A return to the glorious 80's and 90's when the Mavs were an NBA powerhouse.

Denver Nuggets - Trade Carmelo Anthony to the Knicks and bring back Dikembe Mutombo.

Houston Rockets - Move Yao Ming to point guard, let Steve Francis play the two, with Cuttino Mobley off the bench for a lethal backcourt combination.

Memphis Grizzlies - Move the team to the northern tip of Canada, use an outdoor arena with no roof or heat.

Minnesota Timberwolves - Another illegal move for Joe Smith that costs the team years of first round draft picks. That was brilliant.

San Antonio Spurs - Hire Scott Layden as general manager so he can deal Tim Duncan to the Utah Jazz in exchange for Raul Lopez, Greg Ostertag and future considerations. Yeah, I know, I already used a Layden joke earlier, but whatever, have another.

Utah Jazz - Bring back Mark Eaton. This isn't a joke or anything. It's just fun to make occasional Mark Eaton references.

PACIFIC DIVISION

Golden State Warriors - Twenty more years of Garry St. Jean's fantastic skills controlling this team's roster. Oh my.

Los Angeles Clippers - Continued success from this storied, championship-level franchise.

Los Angeles Lakers - The return of the best 80's Laker: David Rivers.

Phoenix Suns - I miss the Charles Barkley days. Those were the days. No joke or anything.

Portland Trail Blazers - Sign JR Rider, Roy Tarpley, Jayson Williams and OJ Simpson.

Sacramento Kings - Bring back Jerry "Ice" Renolds. Did I spell his name correctly? I don't feel like looking it up. I'm pretty sure it's wrong. Anyway, bring him back.

Seattle Supersonics - I miss the days of Dale Ellis, Xavier McDaniel and Tom Chambers. Bring those three back.
