Premium Member sturt Posted June 27, 2007 Premium Member Report Share Posted June 27, 2007 I'm sitting here watching the ESPN.com video, and the first up is Bucher talking about the PHX/MIN/ATL trade. He reports the trade is simply KG to PHX, #3 and #11 to MIN, and Amare + filler to ATL. Asked if he foresaw any hang-ups such as was experienced with the LAL and BOS situations, and he said it all rested with the Hawks' ownership and their situation... he also remarked that our people were meeting with Chinese officials today about whether or not we may still be interested in Yi at #3, and that that could somehow have some impact on all of this (... he didn't flesh that out too well, though... obviously we aren't going to flunk out of a trade for Amare b/c we want Yi). So... my question... when was this on TV? Tonight? Earlier today? This morning? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oiatlhawksfan Posted June 27, 2007 Report Share Posted June 27, 2007 I think that was during the draft preview show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buzzsaw Posted June 27, 2007 Report Share Posted June 27, 2007 Another draft preview will be on from 10-11 tonight .. but shouldn't do anything but confuse everyone more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WraithSentinel Posted June 28, 2007 Report Share Posted June 28, 2007 Good thing the Mets/Cards game is starting late. They may not air it unless it is on Espn2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
warcore Posted June 28, 2007 Report Share Posted June 28, 2007 I saw it on sportscenter between 6 and 6 30 i believe. Bucher spoke more about the BOS deal--whereas Ford spoke about the deal involving us and what Soth has been talkin about Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoonKnight Posted June 28, 2007 Report Share Posted June 28, 2007 In the Bucher report I caught at around 7:00ish he mentioned two trade tracks for Amare. One had us giving up #3, #11, and filler. The other had us giving up #3, SW, and filler. Wow, if we walked out of this with Amare and kept the #11 I would be shocked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jezmund Posted June 28, 2007 Report Share Posted June 28, 2007 If we could substitue #11 for Shelden Williams then a lot of folks would probably think a lot differently about Billy Knight. #3 / Shelden / Zaza / AJ Childress for either Calderon or Jack #11 on BPA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidSomerset Posted June 28, 2007 Report Share Posted June 28, 2007 Jack/Lue JJ/Salim MW/ ??? Smoove/ Noah Amare/ Solo What do we do about back-up SG/SF? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jezmund Posted June 28, 2007 Report Share Posted June 28, 2007 Claxton would be our BU PG so we'd have Lue/Salim to get us our BU wing. A guy I keep mentioning just because he has done well against us, the #'s work out and he obviously has a personal connection to us is Damien Wilkins. Jack / Claxton Johnson Marvin / Wilkins Smith / Jones Amare / Noah / Wright Where do I sign? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jezmund Posted June 28, 2007 Report Share Posted June 28, 2007 Good point. When we drafted Shelden Williams, I was actually optimistic about him. I think he deserves AT LEAST one more year to prove his value BUT if it is necessary to get Amare Stoudemire, I'm still down for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
