How would Elton Brand help Charlotte? If that trade went down it would be a terrible trade on their part.

 

[CP1708]

I can't see any reason AT ALL for Houston to trade Shane Battier. No way in hell I would trade that guy. He is perfect for that team.

That said, hope they do it.

 

[D Fly]

If Emeka comes to Philly, that basically eliminates any chance of Sammy staying.


Win-win.

 

[eyes of hazel]

Where is Isiah Thomas when you need him.

Post-NBA career, this is the ONLY time he is valuable.

im saving my posts,

.
1. hope warriors get rid of corey's fat and ugly contract. good riddance.
2. no on that chandler+8 for whatever garbage we're getting back. wilson stays in ny.
3. these trades all suck. every trade rumored so far is pretty much 1-sided

Nets and Magic are apparently working on a Vince Carter trade, according to our Chad Ford. Rafer Alston, Courtney Lee and Tony Battie would go to NewJersey.

That deal is much better than the GSW deal



Skip coming close to home.

@ the Magic. Courtney Lee? Really? The trade is so-so unless they getTurkoglu back. How good would their defense be with VC, Turk, Lewis?

Jameer
Vince
Hedo
Rashard
Howard

OMG!!!

 

[shabooyah1124]

Why would they move Courtney Lee? VC is over the hill and I just don't understand why this trade would go down.

 

[im not you]

Meer
Vince
Lewis
???
Dwight

Get another 2/3/4 and I guess that's ok depending on how motivated VC is

 

[Sam Darnold Heisman #8]

OMG!!!

How would they be able to afford Hedo with Vince's deal on the cap?

 

[japanair21]

I would not move Courntey Lee.

 

[kix4kix]

VC on the Magic

I don't care, make it happen. They just made how much money with the extra 12 playoff home games? Put that back into the roster and keep Hedo. Idon't care about tax, they have a great chance at a title with the team I listed above. (still need a bench, but whatever) if they land Vince, they canfind a way to get the money for Hedo. New arena comin right? There's money.

Basically what I was gonna say.

I really don't want T-mac moving but if he does get traded, I hope it's to the Suns.

 

[raptors29]

This Magic rumor better have no truth to it. I've been a Magic fan, basically since they came into the League. Would they really dismantle achampionship-caliber team and drop a deuce on the loyal fans. Losing to the Lakers hurt. Don't add to the pain.

 

[you big dummy]

[h3]

@ the Vince Carter trade[/h3]

 

[eyes of hazel]

I think these GMs think they playing NBA Live in franchise mode...

Vince is not motivated.

You put him on the Lakers now, and he won't be motivated (especially on the defensive end).

Dude plays like he's just happy to get a check.

As usual, Rod Thorn is doing his damn thing.

Orlando on the other hand...

Lee is a gem. Let's not forget about all the "small school" talk about him in last year's draft.

He's the only dude outside Howard willing to stick his nose in defensively.

Chemistry man. Chemistry....

 

[long beach vincey]

No way ORL keeps Turk if they get Carter

Still a nice team..

What's better ORL with Carter

or

ORL with Turk/Lee/Skip
