    Tmac for Al Harrington and Stephen Jackson: throw in Chuck Hayes too, so they get a big man.

    Golden State does it because Al wants to be traded, their team sucks, and they can generate excitement with Tmac coming in. GS still has Maggette and Biedrins to build with.

    I would do the T-Mac trade. Even though you are giving up the better player and have to take on Carroll's albatross contract, the fact that you get both Wallace and Felton is what makes me think it could make sense - you obviously don't need Rafer anymore.

    I don't know if I'd ship him for Haslem, though. I think I woudl just try to get some backup SG and/or C help with any combination of Rafer/Head/Hayes at that point and go from there.

    Anyone can bash me if they want, but tracy has more on court impact to the rox than yao. The winning % don't lie. Now as a franchise is you're more concerned with the bean counters than fielding the vest team possible, that's not good for the city and the people.

    I continue to hear people talk bbiq and how kaman or howard has a low one, but yao's bbiq isn't high either. Look at his poor passing,high to's and still cheap no contact fouls he gets. Do u really trust yao to make a good decision with the ball?

    ok well the idea behind the trade is that we need a center that can hold the fort for yao when hes hurt, doing bad or just taking a breather so why not curry, hes put up good numbers for a center the last few years and we only need him for backup minutes and he should be fine at that. New york wants to release him because hes just sitting and doing nothing so why not. We also get Stephen Jackson who helps add toughness to the rockets, hes a good defender, hes played with ron artest before and the best part about it is we keep battier so we end up with 3 damn good defenders and 2 of them can score. Yea i just checked New York can send David lee to GS it works.

    Recap
    NY: gets Al Harrington and bellineli
    Loses Eddy curry and David Lee

    Houston: gets Stephen Jackson and Curry
    Loses Tmac

    GS: Gets David Lee and Tmac
    Loses Bellineli and Al Harrington

    New York gets All Harrington because they need a big that D'antoni can work with and this guy worked well with nelly and imagine what he can do with mike D. So they get a big that can shoot and the release a big thats just picking up dust on their bench. In this trade Golden state also gives Bellineli to the Knicks and because hes italian who knows maybe its sugar coating for dantoni so it can basically be an italian mob with mike, bellineli and gallinari. Who knows.

    Golden state: they give up Harrington to NY because he doesnt want to play and Brandon Wright is doing pretty good at a starter. They also let go of Stephen Jackson for Tracy Mcgrady because they havent been giving him the extension he wants so this could be a reoccuring problem during the season. They get Tmac who can score slash and play the 3 or 2 along with Maggette and when ellis gets back they have 2 play makers in Monta Ellis and Tmac so in the meantime while Ellis is out Tmac can help with the playmaking that they severly have a lack of right now. This will definatlly help out their tickets because Tmac will sell tickets more then Captain Jax. I know they give up 2 guys and get 1 but im now thinking david lee can come in with the package as well but i didnt use him in the trade let me see if that works. Any suggestions.

    I think this trade would work

    Tyrus Thomas is hated by all Bulls fans. He has an extremly low basketball IQ, terrible work ethic and has a reputation for not listening or caring. He also has missed a lot of shootarounds and practices. I wouldn't trade Landry for him

    Ooh! Ooh! I'd like to bash you! A word for you:
    H-A-T-E-R :rolleyes:

    btw, guy below this guy: why do people love cancers like Eddie Curry? He's on my all-time never-touch-with-a-30-yard-pole list along with marbury and tinsley.

    You lost all credibility when you traded for Fat Eddie Curry.

    No Jamaal Tinsley for obvious reasons. Not a single team in the league wants him (including his own). he's such a cancer that they won't even let him around the team.

    I would rather have Shawn Bradley, wherever he may be at this time (i.e. polygamy colony, riding bicycles with his bible, pizza hut delivery, etc) than fat Eddie Curry.

    Why would the Wolves even consider this deal?

    Whoever proposed for a trade involving Eddie Curry to the Rox should be locked away for a long time. Seriously.

    TMAC and Chuck Hayes for Al Harrington and Stephen Jackson

    Or....

    Wait for Emeka Okafor to become tradeable and do a Tmac and Scola for Emeka, Gerald wallace, and Carroll (take him for $ and to give incentive to Charlotte.

    New Lineup:

    Yao, Okafor, Artest, Wallace, and sadly, Skip.

    +juan. Seriously people, did you even read what Clutch posted? can we be realistic here at all (some have been but the overwhelming majority has been ridiculous).

    1) We aren't trading Yao Ming. Erase that from your heads. It will never happen. Why waste time or clutter up the board with suggestions.

    2) They aren't taking the Tinsley's, Tyrus Thomas's and Eddy curry's of the world. We don't need or want garbage like that.

    calm down guys curry would just let yao get proper rest while he gives us size at the 5. Im just trying to find a center that has scoring ability and size. thats something we dont have besides yao. but yea your trade looks good.
