Lakers board buzzing (big time) about a big trade coming down soon. Rockets get Odom/Francis, Lakers get Tmac, Orlando gets expiring Ks. Probably not going to happen knowing lakers fans tendency to jump at every rumour that has them as the clear winner, but just thought it interesting.
That's just nuts. No way. I'm turning in my mini ticket plan and rooting for the Spurs if this happens.
there is no way we trade tmac for those kinda players IF anything was to happen involving tmac, the only fair trade i see is kg, but i still wouldnt do it
clublakers...Probably wishful thinking on there part, but some them are sure they're getting McGrady.. It would be funny if I didn't fear it so much. Like I said, hopefully just BS wishful thinking. Here's the thread.. http://clublakers.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=49955&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=860
Ok. reading some more comments from their "insiders" it is complete BS. Although they are insisting that they are getting some All-star (not TMac). Should have known better then to post drivel from a fan message board.
Steve Francis should be a Rocket!! Damn right! He and JVG went head to head I'm sure from time to time...but what great coach/pg duo don't? He was in that McGrady trade because he had to be...Cat too...the real issues were getting Mcgrady and losing some extra weight...Cato. I would love for him to be back in H-Town! He is a fantastic player...and EVERYONE deserves a second chance!
No refunds! But no worry, my sources say the Lakers are getting KG, Francis is going to the Nuggets, and the Rockets don't get anything done, oh well.
as usual. the only way i approve a trade with the Lakers is T-Mac for Kobe, and thats only because I will be too busy drooling over Vanessa at every home game to care.
ESPN Trade Machine approved: Francis to Lakers Lamar to Houston Bob Sura, Derek Anderson, and Stromile Swift to Orlando Lakers get stud back court, Houston moves Odom to play PF, Orlando gets 2 expiring contracts and Swift can fill the C spot that Cato left behind.
lakers get worse. orlando gets worse (assuming that is even possible). houston gets better. approved - but not going to happen.
Howard is the one we need to dump (in some trade). Can you imagine being stuck with him until the 2009 season?
