Anyone else seriously starting to love this offseason? So much stuff could be going down today through the end of the month. Shaq to Dallas for the #5, Howard, Najera, etc? Antoine Walker to New York for Kurt Thomas, and etc? Bulls trade the #3 and #7 for Al Harrington? Washington becomes the 3rd team in the Hou/Orl deal with Kwame and Arenas? Clippers continue to screw things up? Portland moves some of their final year contracts? (Ratliff, Stoudamire, Davis, SAR) Seattle moves Ray Allen? Crazy times! Evan
Rumor control mentions that the Rockets have offered Cuttino Mobley for either the #3 or #7. The Pacers are offering Harrington for the #7 so they can get, uh, some 6'7" white boy (I forget his name; Luke something maybe?) Cat isn't really worth the #3, although he is underrated. Maybe Cat and Boki for the #3 and Pippen (then waive Quitten's contract). The Bulls have a trade exception after the Bobcats took Fizer in the expansion draft, so that might facilitate any of these trades they're seeking. I don't know if we're seeking the #3 for enticement in the Orlando trade or for something else. If the Orlando Magic are after Ray Allen, with Steve as the bait, well, Steve and Ray are pretty close to a wash, Ray being the smarter player, Steve being the more dynamic player. So I hope we're not after the #3 to throw in with the idea of Ray Allen and #3 and Cato for T-Mac and Howard, because that would be too much to give up. Man, I am getting NO WORK DONE these past two days. Good thing the boss is out of town.
