I think they are regurgitating old information...I don't think that's anything new...I think they are just stretching the truth a bit.

Let's hear it!

Can we make an agreement on draft day with the Suns and Wolves to make a trade on July 1 and have a GUARANTEE that they won't change their minds?

Oh I must have missed something...Do we NEED Belkin's approval?

From what you said earlier it sounded like it.

I don't know why he would be opposed...Amare is not only a great player, but also a great marketing asset.

What the heck would we do about PG in that situation?

But when JJ is playing SF, who's going to be playing SG?

I don't think Salim is anything more than a good 3 point shooter off the bench...not really a SG.

My only concern is that if we do this deal our roster is going to be gutted...How are we going to have any depth at all?

Say we trade Chill for Calderon, and 3, 11, Lo, Lue, Speedy, (more???) for Amare...Our starting 5 is amazing, but what about after that??

Calderon/AJ

JJ/Salim

Marvin/ ????

Smoove/Shelden

Amare/Zaza/Solo

Back-up SF/SG is a MAJOR concerns...If we got our draft pick back next year in the Amare trade, we could leverage that for a pick this year, and hopefully end up with someone like Derrick Byars.

One more question though.

Would the Raps take Childress for Calderon straight up instead of 11 for Calderon? Or are they locked in on that draft pick?

Or would Chillz already be gone in the Gasol trade?

Two trades???

Yahoo!

Calderon/AJ

JJ/Salim

Marvin/ ??Free agent...Guessing Chillz is gone in Gasol trade

Smoove/Shelden

Gasol/Zaza

Oh trust me, I read Sothron's stuff every time...I just couldn't recall what specific info mr. h was referring to.

Or is he too much of a scorer from the PG position for our needs?

He is certainly athletic enough to create mismatches and get people some open shots.

Maybe BK is holding out in hopes that the demand drops from 3, Chillz to just 3 and fillers????

And Garnett better sign an extension before hand.

What on earth would we do about PG, though?

Trade for Ridnour would be nice.

He hangs out around the basket...That's where he gets about all his points.

He can't create his own shot at all...Nick Young would give us the best SG in the draft, and someone who can give JJ some rest.

What would the package look like we'd have to give up for Amare?

And could he play C for us, or is he too much of a PF?

We are underpaying for Biedrins with the 3 pick, and overpaying for Ellis with the 11 pick...It balances out, IMO.

Ellis/AJ

JJ/Salim

MW/Chillz

Smoove/Shelden

Biedrins/Zaza

That is an instant playoff team and a very dangerous one at that.

I don't think he's worth the #11 pick, but what would it take to get him?

Would 11 for Ridnour/Wilcox work?

Would Salim/AJ get him???

Horford at 3

Nick Young at 11

Trade for Ridnour

Call it a day!

Ridnour/Lue

JJ/Nick Young

MW/Chillz

Smoove/Shelden

Zaza/Horford

Nick Young would give us some GREAT energy and scoring off the bench.

That is a nice looking young team, isn't it?

I wouldn't even trade Josh Smith for JO straight up.

3 and 11 for AB and Ellis??

It's an interesting thought...
