    The T(rade) M (ark) thing concerns me because I hope Mcgrady isn't shipped right now.

    I got it...

    Kobe to Pheonix
    Diaw, Turiaf to Houston
    Marion, Francis, Snyder, Wells, Mutumbo to LA

    Haha.

    Kobe was the first thing I thought of when I saw complaining star. I have no clue, but I miss threads like these.

    I don't think it could be Diaw coming here though, he is not an "aging" contract. He's only 26. Artest would fit the "aging" part, but not for a "long, long time." He's only got 2 yrs left on his deal. Got me stumped...

    Like I said... Diaw makes some sense. But when has he complained?

    He broke the Francis trade, along with The Mall Guy. Among other things. oeilpere, many of us here thought you were on your deathbed around the time you disappeared. Glad that wasn't the case!

    "complaining star and aging contract" doesn't necessarily refer to two players. It could be one and the same player.

    Is it possible we're trying to work out a trade for Brad Miller? That would be interesting. Not sure how we could get the salaries to match.

    My head hurts. I think it's the Suns we're talking to, but I don't see us landing Marion. So it could be a west team..Clippers? Lakers?

    Which of our star is complaining? Yao? T-Mac? hm...

    ex-star?

    who is this popeye guy? I have been on this board for awhile, never know about him. I know some posters are insiders. Is he one of them? How credible is he? He sure talks like he works for realgm.

    The "aging African" is obviously Deke, but c'mon! How do you trade Deke at this point.

    The only one that looked sluggish out there tonight was Rafer... oh, and Yao :eek:

    Deke + Francis, money wise = Boris Diaw?

    I say popeye is a fraud.

    Best to chill for awhile before jumping to conclusions. OP is not your average poster.
