    I've been trying to think of how an A.I trade would affect the league but I cant even think of one team that would like to have him.

    You would think that a team with no hope would want them, but usually those are the young teams building for the future so they would not want to risk it to A.I.

    Do you guys think anyone wants him? Where can he end up?

    I wish the Rockets got him.. And I'll say it again I would trade T-mac for either AI or KG

    I think he'd be perfect for Chicago. That's a team that just needs a superstar to take control of things. The rest of the team are all great roleplayers but they lack that one player who can just takeover the game.

    with the way ben wallace has been going over with the bulls that actually may work. Correct me if im wrong but ben and AI's salarys this year are pretty close right. I could see a Duhuon + wallace for AI+ dalenbare trade working

    Gordon/Deng/PJ Brown for AI

    Francis/QRich for AI

    AI is too expensive -- literally priced out of the market. If you have him -- or KG -- it's difficult to have a superstar pairing as we have with Yao and T-Mc.

    I can't see how AI would get along any better with Chicago's coaching staff than Wallace has.

    Why would Philadelphia do that?

    Here's the latest

    I think AI on the Mavs could be dangerous...of course the Mavs would have to give up some combination of Terry, Stackhouse, Howard and Harris...and could end up giving up too much, even though AI is the best player in the deal.

    Celtics, Knicks...who cares...all teams would still suck.

    I'm surprised Denver isn't pushing harder, Golden State isn't pushing at all, and the Clippers aren't in discussions. Sacramento and Seattle might think its worth their while, too.

    It would be HILARIOUS considering the history between Stackhouse and Iverson if he had to go back to Philly for him.

    The smart thing for us to do contract wise is to translate Juwan and Sura's contract to a PF who can hit the mid-range jumpers and Rebound

    Most likely he will end up in Sacramento- or if Isiah is welling to take on weber as well- then New York!

    The maloofs know a thing or two about gambling and alcohol!

    If we want to spend KG kind of Money- I would get a legit starting PG and a Good PF. KG is great- but it just does not work.

    I am for loyalty - and we need to stand by Tmac.
