    I just tried the trade machine feature on the ESPN website: http://games.espn.go.com/nba/features/trademachine

    I put info. on a possible trade with Cleveland:

    Houston trades: Stro and Da for Damon Jones and Donell Marshall and it would work on the NBA rules.

    Try it it is a cool feature...

    Easier to use than the RealGM version

    Anyway - I played around with this for about 5 seconds, but was then crestfallen when I realized: Nobody in their right mind would trade for Swift/Wesley/Anderson/Howard or the rest of our mediocre pieces.

    :(

    fill in Yao and it's a done deal. ;)

    I hate the zone defense, it's killing the big man post up game. We saw what it can do (against dallas last year, and suns this year...)

    or how about this send juwon to zeke and new york for jamal crawford that one works too then we could send crawford instead of howard in that 3 team deal and grab a cheap extra pg since Crawford makes a little more than howard.

    Orlando is looking for expiring contracts, not longtime headaches.

    Those might be the 2 most lopsided trades of all time - expecially that last one.

    Weird, Trade Machine says Swift has 2 years left on his contract. I can only wish...

    Hey, guys! Let's trade with Isiah! He'll eat anything!

    ok guys, everyone realizes that a lot of bad players' salaries can add up to a good player's salary. Or that some bad players make the same amount as some good players.

    Can we stop with the r****ded crap now?
