    Miami is trading the #2 pick overall for a PG as it looks and a veteran to go along with marion and wade.

    Houston

    Arron Brooks (Hate to see him go)
    Luther Head
    Shane Battier
    #25

    for

    #2 overall
    Daquan Cook
    Mark Blount (absorb his ridiculous contract)

    Aaron Brooks- Miami wants a PG for the future and they get a solid one that can definately run the ball. Hopefully they bite but doubt it. This is best PG bait we have

    Luther Head- We wanted to let him go and with Marion and Wade penetrating he could fit their system nicely

    #25 pick- Entice them with something

    Battier- Hate to see batman go, but I feel that they would want him in return for Beasley

    #2 pick- This is what we really wanted Draft Beasley

    Cook- A solid role player than can play back up 2 and isn't undersized

    Blount- we take on his bad contract so miami sends the pick

    In the second round, we draft Shan Foster.


    Resulting Lineup
    C: Yao/ Deke/ Blount
    PF: Scola/ Landry/ Hayes
    SF: Beasley/Novak/Harris
    SG: Tmac/Cook/Foster
    PG: Alston/Bjax/Francis


    Big Question is if Miami thinks this is the best deal, but i made this thread so before someone else offers something crazy for the #2 pick. I thought I'd be the first crazy fan to try to get Beasley :D

    Wait thats the reason you thought it was crazy...lol

    I know its a farfetched Idea and my mindset going into the trade was ok if we had to do this trade what do we have to give to get Beasley.

    This was the best i came up with to make it even. I know its out there but eh i know it was a risky move but we do want to win now

    I beg to differ. ALl indications on the web say Riley isn't high on Beasley

    This does indeed sound crazy. You need to give up no less than a superstar to get a number 2 pick.

    Well so far on the rumors ive heard. The best offer that Miami has on the table is

    Conley + Miller + 5th pick for Blount + 2th pick

    So you tell me...no superstar there

    Isn't there already a thread for this? We'd better get at least a dozen new basketballs out of this also.

    Oh no trust me when i say this, I am a huge Battier fan. It just seemed that he would be the only thing that Miami would want that would put us over the top. I'd hate to see him go

    I'd actually do that if i were Miami, i got a bad feeling about beasley..attitude wise.....Conley will get it done, miller will fit great and that #5 could be a starter right away

    Ya, battier is more valuable than T-Mac and maybe even Yao after all these injuries....

    And people still believe that Mike Conely Jr. has the potential and skill to be an all-star.

    That ain't good enough either, but it is a million times better than the nonsense this thread is based on. You want the number 2 pick, at a minimum you will have to include Scola, Battier, 25th (and this probably wouldn't do it either). It will probably take T-mac and Battier for Marion, #2, and whatever fodder to make the salaries match and I don't think Miami would do that either. Why am I even bothering. This is way too out there.
