    This has been posted inside a thread, but w/e. No one's gonna fault you for this.

    Except that this is a crappy RUMOR.

    I don't know why Morey would do this. We could get better things for just TMac alone.

    i doubt this would go through

    but funny though


    mike james could be a first though

    first player to be traded to the same team 3 different times

    only to be traded from that same team too.

    This is the type of deal that is better than the others though....you are not getting noticably weaker at any position....although I would try to do it for Tmac only.

    And you are getting into the high lottery.

    wait, is this james AND thomas AND the #5 for tmac and landry?

    IF so, the wizards could really do some damage next year if tmac comes back even at 80% of what he used to be...

    If we could sweeten the deal to get Butler or Jamison, I would do it.

    You would have to add Jamison in there to even make the numbers work.

    What are the numbers for both the Wizards' players?

    years/$?

    TMac + Cook and/or Barry would be worth it, imo. (If the money matches)


    Brooks/Lowry/James
    #5/Wafer
    Artest/Battier
    Scola/Landry/Hayes
    Yao/Backup C via FA

    If we could get someone like James Harden or DeMar DeRozan, we could be set to play in June for the first time in 13 years

    It would be hard to sweeten. A Wafer sign-and-trade/Landry/McGrady for Butler, Thomas, and #5? We're dreaming, but then I wouldn't be pissed about giving up Landry.

    So...

    Brooks/Lowry
    Butler/#5
    Battier/Artest
    Scola/Landry/Hayes
    Yao/Backup C

    I really, really like that, lol!


    If we got the number 5 pick, I would try to trade up for #2 though. I'd do anything to get Thabeet at this point (of getting #5).

    If it's TMac + Landry for Jordan Hill & bad contracts, I'd probably do it...
