    They save around $1.2 Million this season with this trade.

    Damn, It must suck to be Drew Gooden right about now! Going from a possible championship contender in the Mavs, to the lowly Wizards, to know going to the Clippers, the freakin Clippers!

    Agreed after this NY deal gets done, lets swing something for Gordon.

    He'll be hard to get though because he's young and not payed much.

    Something is wrong with the Clippers trading Al Thornton for who.

    I wish there was still some way of getting Iggy. He's rotting in Philly.

    Then again Thorton was being payed less and is arguably just as good.

    I would think Amare not going to Cleveland would entice NY to offer the picks, since it increases the chances of Lebron leaving.

    Man, there so cheap... and they will probably buy out Drew Gooden and maybe save a small amount of money there. I think trade it self saves them around $1.2 million + how much ever they save by buying him out.

    I do hope we can steal Amare...that would certainly be very awesome...

    I thought the Suns were intent on getting rid of him, so maybe they are getting desperate...

    But not really, I am expecting the Knicks deal to go down though, either that or nothing. Splish!

    yea thats a donald sterling special. hes all to keen to sign up asap for something that'll save his team a MASSIVE 1.2 million dollars this season bymoving 2 former lottery picks thats been playing well on his already LOADED AND NUMBER 1 TALENTED team.

    but I guess it does move Sebastian Telfairs contract next season so they have bigger cap room in the summer though.

    BUT. IF. the clips price to move sebastian telfair was al thornton, who only makes about 2 million each, then we only getting a paltry first rounder for taking on someone who makes 7 million???????????????????????????

    Just get the Iggy deal back! I just think he could help now and in the future! I hate both the Bulls and Knicks deals!

    lolz just stop :eek:

    Who said anything about getting Jamison? But yeah, I'm sure we could of. He was reportedly a target and we were making a "serious" bid for him.

    I assure you that winning IS NOT Drew Gooden's top priority.

    Stefanski reportedly turned down Tmac/Budinger for Iggy/Dalembert. Can't blame Morey, he made a good offer.

    I would trade a lot for Eric Gordon if he were ever available, I just really like his game.

    I would give them Ariza +our first rounder this year even if it around the 10-12 pick.
