Woody on trades...

"You can look at trades and all that," said Woodson, whose team carried a 1-3 mark into Wednesday's finale of a five-game Western Conference road trip against the Los Angeles Clippers at Staples Center. "But until something is done, we have to weather the storm and just keep playing. It's not like we're playing bad basketball. Unfortunately, we've had some tough road games, and it's not easy winning road games no matter how you cut it.

"But the only thing I see in jump-starting this team is if you look to pull the trigger on making some trades. Again, I'm the coach, but I think from a management standpoint we've seen enough in terms of what we need, so now it becomes a question of are those people out there?"

I can think of something else that might energize the guys, Woodrow. And it's not one of your rousing halftime pep talks...

Edit: I should link to the full article...

Yeah, or that Denver game... and tonight... In fact, if you take out all of our road games where we have looked like utter terrible, abysmal garbage, we have played good basketball! you're right!

Does anyone remember Woody making comments about trades before? Seems somewhat out of character. Me things he's trying to divert attentiion from himself . . . . ie changing players and not changing coaches.

Or openly begging the front office to do something.
