I'm sure if Riley is trading the #2 pick it's because Rose has gone #1 -- he would be most likely talking about trading down to the 3, 4 or 5 pick and getting something else. He may like an OJ Mayo or Jerryd Bayless in that scenario and feel it's not worth taking those guys over Beasley when someone will pay for the chance to select him.
IF - wade stays marion doesn't opt out (i think he won't) and signs an extension trade #2 pick in a package in exchange for a solid-to-star-caliber player or 2 all happens, miami can possibly save a few years of time in rebuilding; since they play in the east anyway. and riley is never shy to pull down a big trade. unlikely, but not entirely impossible imo.
reasonable thinking. i feel since not that many teams have the money to sign players this summer, we may see more trades (incl. players and rookies) than usual compared to recent years. (btw, a rare direct response from the admin. wow. i'm flattered. can i be upgraded to a "member", again? )
OP apparently has no idea who Tyrus Thomas is. He's garbage and couldn't hold a healthy Landry's jockstrap.
Isn't it weird how Tyrus Thomas and Stromile Swift are nearly identical players with the same strengths that are negated by the same overwhelming flaws and they came out of the same school?
These are the players that, imo, would help us. Gordon, Kirk, Deng (doubt that he's going to get moved) or nocioni (i can't spell if its wrong). we need help most at the guard and SF position. I really feel that our PF and Center position is good to go. possibly consider too Noah... I like his intensity
LOL @ wanting stromile swift part 2 in sorry ass tyrus thomas...and then you mention Drew "i can't score 10 points if Lebron aint spoon feeding me" Gooden...we got PFs...who wants those bums. Anyway...i'd take KH12, and even Duhon, but dont bring Power Forwards in the mix unless u talkiin about a star.
What is Anthony Randolph became the same thing? I doubt that would happen though considering he actually skilled offensively, but that doesn't mean he won't be a bust like them.
Bulls don't really have what we want. Ben Gordon wanted more money and I dunno if we want another "small" shooting guard. Isn't he the same size as luther? No to Duhon and Hinrich's ridiculous contract.
PF's from LSU are starting to scare me. Just wait until three years once Big Baby gets paid, stops working and slowly eats himself out of the league.
They would need a big guy. Maybe trade the pick for a healthy Elton Brand combined with Marion and Wade could make them Eastern Confernce Title contenders in one year. I can't think of another big guy that would possibly be on the block.
