Two things: First of all, those that think we would be able to trade Brooks for value are in fantasy land. It's really hard to deal him away...
If they were able to trade JUST Yao (and picks and prospects obviously but that's with every trade). Meaning... we'd keep Brooks/Martin and all...
Uh... David Anderson and Joey Dorsey were low risk, low reward "mistakes". Saying they are mistakes is like saying Mike Harris and Jermaine Taylor...
I think there is no doubt that he's trying to go after Melo. I understand that some fans here don't like him or like Martin more, but I think...
Why? Love is still on his rookie contract isn't he? Why would they trade AWAY young talent?
Assuming the trade is based around one of Martin or Brooks and not both... I don't see how this is possible. These 3+ for 1 type trades happen...
We will still have Lowry and/or Lee (one of them would start depending on which of Brooks/Martin are traded). We should still have one of...
I think Lebron's situation was special. First, it was a "special" offseason. Second, the team he eventually ended up on will probably end up being...
I think betting that a guy like Favors will turn out to be better than Melo is a bad gamble. Also, how can you say Melo isn't worth his max...
Storytellers has him at 6.7 mil as well, and they usually are very reliable with stuff like this.
We had Ron Artest on the team for a season, we've had other "mal-contents" on the team in the past and it has worked out. Compared to some of...
I think it's valid to point out the severe lack of 3 point shooting when you play Lowry, Carmelo and Iggy together at the 1,2 and 3. Lowry shoots...
I seriously doubt that we could get Anthony without giving up Brooks or Martin. It's just not going to happen given how many teams seem to be in...
When did he say this? And what team could he go to that has a better shot at a title than Denver? (Houston might make it to that point but only if...
I think people were getting their hopes up from the beginning. We had a shot at Melo. But so did 4-5 other teams. And while we might've been at...
Except it happens ALL THE TIME, Shaq-Marion happened midseason, Artest-Peja, Gasol, AI (going to denver), Butler and Jamison last year, Kevin...
Why? More opportunities can pop up during the season. The first scenario I brought up was the case where another star wants off his team, and...
If the price is right, then maybe they do the deal before the season starts. However, they have no reason to get a deal done fast. It's to their...
The AI trade had more to do with salary than the Pistons thinking they were getting the better player in the deal.
Then obviously we wouldn't get him if he stayed put. But there are rumors he wants to be traded, therefore the reason for threads like these.
