    Are you in Junior High? Do you even know what I meant by newbie? If you are of legitimit age, you can do better than this. Plus, I'm not real sure why you are insulting me. Please explain because I'm not sure that I ever proposed any trade at all.

    I would like to say...WE ARE ALL EXPERTS!!! We are all intelligent and so close to the NBA!!! Les Alexander is our best friend! We all eat dinner with Yao every day! We buy shoes with Steve Francis! We talk with Charles Barkley all the time! We discuss trades with Dr. Jack Ramsay! We are all the best! None of us are newbies! We are all intelligent and know everything about basketball! Basketball is a sport for everyone!

    OMG people...i SERIOUSLY doubt this trade will ever happen. If Clutch is in the dark then thats obviously a bad sign. Lets focus on things that may actually happen..like playoffs, or resigning posey, or something of that nature. You heard it here folks...no way this happens. Clippers are stupid...but not that stupid.

    The Clippers have 3 or 4 guys on their team that will want the max or want out of LA. In order to get value out of their valuable players they will have to make a trade. If they do not, they are stuck with nothing for next year. They will make a move unless they are stupid. In fact, they would be smart to break that team apart and trade for what they can get on the market.

    LiTtLeY1521, I never claimed to have inside knowledge and those who do have it usually claim to. I listened to an open radio conversation about NBA basketball from what seemed to be a credible source. Why don't you go back to doing whatever it was that you did before January 2003.

    A deal is going down within the next 10 days - I guarrantee it. Initially vibes have it to be in the form of Cato + Mobley + Draft picks or Cash for Elton Brand + Eric Piatkowski + fillers. You heard it hear first.

    I'll bet you that deal, or anything close to it, doesn't go down. :)

    You "guarrantee" it?

    Who are you, CD? Joe Namath?

    Unless you know something we don't, in which case you should post it. Otherwise you're just guessing like everyone else here.

    I "heard it hear" first, and I'm going to be the first to remind you of it 10 days from now, Fegwu. In the meantime, lay off the chronic, dude.

    Tip jar challenge! $ 20.00 to the "jar" if he's right.

    Pay up if you're wrong, funboy. ;).

    Ill personally pay $100 to the tip jar if any of the following players are traded: Francis, Mobley, Posey, Griffin, Yao, Rice, Taylor, Cato or Moochie.

    That is how confident I am that no trades will be going down.

    I'm good for 20 if Cat gets traded. It ain't going to happen. Rudy T loves Cat too much to let him go.

    Well golly! I didn't really mean that you talked to them.

    You are the best man! I shall worship you. You are just so smart. How else should I praise you?

    Why wouldn't anybody want to trade Cat in a deal to get Brand? Shooting guards and small forwards are ALOT easier to get than big men. Like someone said, the point PF and center are the most important and hardest positions to fill. We can either sign a FA sg to replace Cat, or let Posey play there and get a small forward until Boki or TMO is ready. Hell a lilne up of Yao, Brand, Francis and just about any two players you want to throw in is a playoff team. What is the downside??????

    MoTay can still be traded to a third team. I mean if any trade talks are going on then all the players can be bait since Rudy supposedly "loves" all of them.
