Watch out for Dallas, they could spring some major surprises and get both Shaq and Mcgrady. Imagine this: Orlando trades: Tracy McGrady, Grant Hill Orlando receives:#5 Pick, Josh Howard, A. Walker, M. Finley L.A. Lakers trades: Shaquille O'Neal L.A. Lakers receives: Dirk Nowitzki, Steve Nash, Shawn Bradley, Danny Fortson, Marquis Daniels Dallas trades: Dirk Nowitzki, Steve Nash, Michael Finley, Antoine Walker, Shawn Bradley,Danny Fortson, Marquis Daniels, Josh Howard, # 5 pick Dallas receives: Shaquille O'Neal, Tracy McGrady, Grant Hill, TRADE ACCEPTED Orlando gets rid of G. Hill, acuires high lotto pick, expiring contract of A. Walker and a stud SG in Finley Dallas Gets: Shaq-Mcgrady. If G. Hill returns even at half of his strenght, that will be an icing on the cake, if he retires then cuban can either save tons of money or trade him to get players to compliment Shaq-Mcgrady. Plus, alot of veteran free agents would be willing to play for Dallas for a chance for a ring. Lakers Get: Nowitzki and Nash to go with Kobe and Payton. Not a bad Foursome. The supporting cast of M. Daniels, Bradley, Forston along with D.George, D. Fisher and Kareem Rush would make them very deep and real contender. All the three teams get benefited and Rockets lose start damage control. Scary thought.
then dallas cant field a team with 30 mil to shaq 14 mil to tracy and prolly 14 to hill... why would orlando want finley or walker... they also have to get nash to sign and trade and daniels to sign and trade... someone destroy realgm
Sanjay, Just when news that the Suns are out of it hits me - you have to go pull this crap on Real GM. Right now I could beat both you & Real GM down... Thanks for another sleepless night...
Dallas is not taking any extra salary and Cuban wants to win it all at all cost. As far as orlando is concerned Finley is better that inactive Hill and Walker will come off the books next year.
G, tmac is coming to houston, period, go get some sleep. this guy doesn't know what he's talking about. shaq is a maybe for dallas, tmac is going nowhere but here. hell it was on national tv on espn that tmac's rep's have stated they will only work with houston. so that's that.
Just because it works out on RealGM, does not mean it works out in real life. The starting price for either Shaq and McGrady for Dallas is Dirk. There being only one Dirk - they can only get one of them.
And who's going to round out the roster, the 7 dwarves, Snow White, Mark Cuban and Chaka Khan? Dallas can't get McGrady, it's not even a given they can get Shaq.
I said this earlier but I'll gladly say it again...... There is no way that Shaq/TMac reunion would happen....cause Dallas would have to give up "untouchable" Dirk to land one of those players.....just to still have enough ammo to land the other. Tonight's Jamison deal they pulled has to be for the sole purpose of landing Shaq......not T-Mac. Its easy for one to see. McGrady is a great offensive player but the Mavs already have a ton of offensive weapons. The Mavs know what their biggest knock is......defense and interior presence. That's what Shaq brings to the table. And let's face it, the addition of Shaq would put the Mavs much closer to a championship then with the addition of McGrady, which would leave them at the same level due to T-Mac's great offensive skills, but lack of defense. T-Mac's game sums up what the Mavs already have. And it hasnt worked so far so why continue using the same formula..... And besides, all the signs point to it being for Shaq. Today he puts his mansion up for sale in LA. No one would do that unless they knew for sure they were leaving town soon. And now we have Dallas, the front runner for Shaq, raping teams and stock piling.....but for what? Hmm... Does Shaq already know where he's going........ .....in 48 hours, we'll find out as everyone is saying "Stackhouse will never wear a Mav uniform." As for T-Mac.......I have a feeling you Rocket fans can start iceing down the "bubbly" and preparing speeches praising Carrol Dawson, especially given all the "FIRE DAWSON" we had seen around here lately.
I think we've gotten to the point where anything goes. This T-Mac trade is running my life right now, I don't even know how long I've been sitting at my computer for. PLEASE LET SOMETHING HAPPEN SOON, I NEED MORE SLEEP!!
better get some No Doze and a cushion for your seat brutha.....cuase we aint hearing nutting till tomorrow....probably during or after the draft.
I have a feeling I won't get into the BBS tomorrow since I'm too cheap/poor to be a payin' member. So I will put in my 2 cents now. Dallas is doing everything it can to get Shaq. They will blow there w&$% on the big guy and have nothing left to even consider T-Mac. Meanwhile, T-Mac has the next best thing to Shaq in Yao so he won't mind. Besides, Yao is a much better partner to have since he won't demand the ball and will pass if/when T-Mac is open. Can't say the same thing about Shaq. Also, Yao will share the spotlight gladly with T-Mac while Shaq want to be the man, the only man on the team. That's why Shaq/Kobe is breaking up. It was held together buy Vulcan mindmill but the Guru is gone so the run is over.....
