    Unless I hear it from Les or CD I don't believe it or post it. Even if Jeff VanGrumpy tries to tell me something is going down I tell him to be quiet, he has no credibility on this board! :cool:

    There could be another Tsunami in the works. I can't say just when though. I just heard some rumblings.

    Neat,

    I hope you are right.

    Any idea of whom the players involved are?

    Look,

    Get off this guys jock, if he really heard information, I want him to post it here.

    Why not?

    He did not say he heard it from another board etc....so many times we have gotten information here like the infamous overheard Cell phone call.

    Let's see if it works out.

    As long as it doesn't cost us our upcoming 1st round pick I would be fine with giving one of our 4's away. I would prefer to trade Mo instead of Howard even though he is younger,and has a shorter contract.

    I happen to think that something will happen to Mo T myself, but that is just my thoughts nothing worth quoting. If he has a source give us some idea of the situation and background - otherwise its meaningless.

    Thanks for posting your opinion of his source. If he has one, then great, but everyone assumes the guy is lying from the get go...if he is, he will be banned..but if not......

    We should go along with it, and if he is wrong, then consequences should happen.

    I read, shortly after the Vince Carter trade, that they were looking at post players to bring in and help thier depleted frontline and that MoT & Howard were on thier list of candidates. I'm not sure if this is the info suddenimpact has or not, but it could happen I suppose. I would have thought they would be going after someone either a little better (especially since the trade bait was thier huge TE they acquired in the KMart trade) or with less of a contract but I guess anything can happen in the NBA these days.

    I pray they move Mo without hamstringing their salary cap further. The Rox just simply do better without him, save for a handful of games. Yes, Howard's contract is longer, but he can actually be an asset to the team. Mo just doesn't mesh on a team without a motion offense to give him a little space to score, yet he's not a great passer either. We brought him on when he was going to be a primary scoring option. IMO, he just doesn't fit in, or JVG doesn't fit him in, but he could be a very productive in another environment
