Ben Gordon REJECTED a 5 year 50 million dollar contract last summer just so he could become a RFA to hopefully sign a huge deal at the end of the season. There's no way in HELL he signs for $5-7M/year. Also we do NOT want Larry Hughes. Trust me. The Bulls are a terrible team outside of Rose. Deng is their next best player and he's on a lengthy 6 year deal and has been severely underachieving. The point is the only player we'd want from the Bulls is Rose and he's untouchable and the rest are either garbage that we don't want or too expensive (Ben Gordon).
http://games.espn.go.com/nba/featur...~406~2792&teams=9~9~15~15~10~9~9~10&te=&cash= We trade Landry, Head, Dorsey. We get CV and Brandan Wright. Both are young up-and-coming scorers. Both are tall. We trade for height, scoring, and possibly because we fear Landry's knee. Barry or Wafer replaces Head's limited minutes. GSW gives up Wright and Maggette (to Mil). The rumor is that they've been trying to trade him. So this deal lets them do that. They receive two young players (Dorsey and Joe Alexander from Mil) to test out. Dorsey was supposed to be very good in an uptempo offense at Memphis last year so maybe that carries over to GSW. They also get Damon Jones from Mil (to help salary) and Head from us (he's an okay scorer who can shoot the three). Mil gets Landry (from the area) and Maggette (where to play him?). Maybe they trade Jefferson or Redd to open playing time for M. Skiles supposedly likes effort players and both of these seem to fit the bill.
Well, yeah. I was speaking hypothetically. If we HAD to do this deal and I could choose the terms: Gordon locked in at $5-7M a year and the pick would be a guaranteed top five pick. That way we can two SG's that can replace T-Mac's minutes and a draft pick that would make our WC rivals cringe. Of course, that's literally highway robbery so i'll shut up now...
Why? Maggette signed a 5 year 50 million dollar contract. Maggette is 29 years old. Maggette is averaging 19.1 points per game at the expense of shooting a pathetic .413 from the field. Guess what his 3pt percentage is? .180 Yes that's 18% percent and that is NOT a Typo. Now tell me WHY would you want him for Mcgrady? Give me 1 good reason. Please. There's a reason why people call him "BAD PORNO" there's a reason why the Warriors are desperate to trade him after signing him to a fresh contract just 5 months ago. Think about things and do some research before suggesting random r****d trade ideas.
What point? Are you guys telling me that a guy who's playing on one leg and doesn't look like it's going to get better anytime soon is still better than a guy who attacks the basket without any hesitation. Screw the salaries.....do you guys think that we'll have the same kind of supporting cast next year or two years from? This is or best chance of winning it (THIS YEAR), and for you blind ****s who can't see that TMac is hurting our chances this year by playing half-ass, limping, settling long range jumpers, deffering to other teammates instead of taking over like a superstar should do, really need a reality check. TMac will never recover from his knee surgery...NEVER!!!
My point is, NO ONE will want Tmac knowing he cant play back to back games. All the Trade Tmac stuff people are doing is stupid. Teams dont like to trade for injured players. If you're saying he'll never recover, dont you think other teams notice that about him too? Why would they trade for him? Answer that genius.
Here is something most of you all ike to see when yall post trades. A help ourselves and not care about other teams. http://games.espn.go.com/nba/featur...9~2188~2794&teams=29~17~29~10~10~17&te=&cash=
You just don't get it do you? Screw the salaries? Are you kidding me? Salary and contract is the most important thing. Seriously, I shouldn't even go on but I feel compelled to do so. I'd rather be stuck with Tmac for the next 2 years instead of Maggette for the next 5 years. Tmac on 1 leg is still better than Maggette. Mcgrady is hurting us right now but if you seriously feel Maggette with his his 41% fga and 18% 3pt pct is going to give us the best chance of "winning it all" your truly nuts. Tmac is also our best play maker. I don't think Maggette has ever heard the terms pass or distribute. Worst case scenario we play through with Mcgrady until the end of next year. Best case scenario is we get a legitimate star in return, a playmaker who can distribute or a true Point guard. Not no ****ING Corey Maggette.
I dont care about Corey but while Tmac is our best playmaker regardless of hurting when it comes to defense his helpless leg leaves us 4 on 5 for the most part. so it not only negates his play making skill but could be worse if the recipient of his assist doesn't score. Therefore his defense liability doesnt off count his play making. im not saying trade him, just making a point. plus i care less if he stays or not, just dont resign him for a superstar contract at 2k10 regardless of how well he plays now or next year and get a superstar in 2k10. or 2 very good 10 mil contracts. or make a trade, doesnt matter to me anymore.
Tmac will not be re-signed in 2k10 and if he is it sure as hell won't be for a superstar contract. Let him rest and see how he does in the playoffs. His value is still much greater than Maggette. I'll take my chances of him improving.
mcgrady, and probably need to add another good piece like landry, or shane for kevin durant. might be a hard strech cuz kevin durant is the franchis peice for thunders but i think they do need to rebuild and we're giving them two starters to rebuild from. Plus throw in a luther head and a draft pick, and I think we can start talking from there. I love Mcgrady but hes very inconsistent with his health issues. If he was healthy then by all means no way, but we really can't gamble any longer. Kevin Durant is a younger Mcgrady with lots of upside and healthier. Thunders obviously need to rebuild, and I'm willing to give good peices for them to start other then yao, artest, scola, and would definitly prefer to keep shane. Plus I'm sure kevin would love to come back to Texas.
Kevin Durant is not coming to this team. Plus, you think T-Mac is whiny now? Wonder what he'd do if he went to a team that MIGHT win 10 games all season. And, I got to thinkin'. Would T-Mac even pass a physical to be traded in the first place?
lol, do they even have 23 mil worth of players? first mcgrady at 20 mil this year adding landry at 3 mil is more money we would have to take a majority of their team for that salary match
Noah isnt on the trading blocks If your so set on Hinirch then maybe Alston, Battier and Landry for Nocioni and Hinrich. They would also need to take Head for a TE to get us closer to the LT...again but this could be worth it, as for Les's cause. Not only that but now you got two fronting contracts. 2k09 Kirk and Andres @ 18mil 2k10 Kirk and Andres @ 17mil 2k11 Kirk and Andres @ 15.85mil 2k12 Kirk and Andres @ 14.65mil 2k13 Kirk is FA and Andres is Team Option @ 7.5mil One good thing about fronting contracts (other then the obvious) is that if they dont work out well next year will be slighty easier to trade with the bit lower contract. But then age comes to effect I guess. While Noah isnt on the trading blocks Drew Gooden is. So if you dont like how far into the LT this trade puts us you can replace Nocioni with Gooden. But that will only save .9mil.
Dunno if it will work...i only want Kirk,Nocioni,Sefolosha on the Bulls...can we give Alston,Battier,Head?
lol, this seems highly accurate http://games.espn.go.com/nba/features/traderesult?players=3418~1987~532&teams=10~10~14&te=&cash=
no kirk and nocioni contract alone is 18 mil head is a mil short and not only that they have a short sg as it is they are getting rid of kirk due to the amount of guards as it it they dont want any more unnecessary ones sefolosha is just gonna add to much more value to the trade
