    You could even go as far as saying that a deal is...Emminent

    The issue is, Ryno's contract isn't a great size. It isn't enough to match Melo, but it isn't small enough to pawn off either. I think DM had always envisioned a Ryno and Gordon swap together, but with parting with Bev and EGo getting 6th man of the year it makes it hard to impossible to package him in. I gotta believe if he was in the deal this would be a two team done deal. The problem is, having our cake and eating it too seems problematic.

    Deserves it's own thread. Is adding EGo to the trade a noGo?

    Windhorst wasn't reporting anything, as @Reeko said.

    BW: What do I say about 3-team trades Tom?

    Tom: It might as well be a 100-team trade.

    BW: A 3-team trade is a no-team trade.

    MacMahon: And this is talking about a 4-team trade.

    BW: A 4-team trade is a pipedream. Obviously they happen so it's not a 0% chance.

    LCAhmed mentioned it as a trade idea. Maybe you're talking about another post.

    In any case, don't be so sensitive and emotional. You have a habit of doing that. Smh

    I could cope with Melo + lee for Anderson + Gordon

    It wouldn't be my ideal situation but least if you get rid of Gordan your getting an SG backup back. Who isn't to bad

    If this was the Knicks, they would use that down to spike it

    4 team trade with the Rockets? "0 percent chance."

    4 team deal with the Cavs? "Oh, it's going to happen no matter what."

    I didn't see it, but totally agree with him. The issue is things are thinning for the Rockets. Capella is not tradeable, Ariza, CP3, Harden, EGo, after those who is left? Ryno and scrubs? I mean, do they want a Joe Chee? How about Troy Williams? Bobby Sura's ghost? Patrick Ewing's soul? I mean we don't have much else.

    No question. I think we are trying to hang onto EG and/or Capella.
