    No one calls Ilgauskas Iggy. There isn't any part from his last name that has and I and a G right next to each other. Iggy is Andre Iguodala.

    rterry, If had only stopped using bull**** creatine and protein powders and got ripped in 4 weeks, you would have perhaps realized in time that this thread is the epitome of failure on so many levels, and the thadeus would not have had to part ways with his beloved peanut butter sandwich for said breasts of your maternal unit.

    I thought this kind of trade has been posted before, it is not a good idea. I do not like the trade to get out of Battier without much gaining.

    Ariza was over hyped by L.A media outlets.

    That sounds like a fine idea.

    Let's trade our whole team for Iggy :)

    Exactly,people here are delusional. Iguodala can also play defense in addition to his scoring abilities. Shane and Andersen for Big Z,no.

    I have to apologize for this one, I'm thinking this is a spin off of the "would you trade Jax for Ilgauskas?" thread in the NBA Dish. Thorry everybody else!!! :eek:


    :D :D :D

    Aside from you getting the wrong nick name, your inclusion of Battier for a player that is well into the declining portion of his career, would play like a less effective SF in a C's body makes this a prime example of failure.

    It would only be an epic fail if you mentioned Big Z being effective in what the Rockets are planning to do this season. But still, this is pretty big ass fail.

    I read....

    Battier + Anderson for Iggy; :)
    I opened thread and saw Cook included; :cool: :)
    Then all of a sudden I saw Cleveland; :confused:
    Then I saw Big Z and went /facepalm :eek: :mad:

    I'll trade for the real Iggy to get some proven offense; Big Z = **** no

    Thank you.

    WRONG, WRONG, WRONG... IGGY= Andre Iguodala
    U=No understandy NBA.

    and thinking Ilgauskas would be any good to the Rockets? oh hell no. Getting Ilgauskas would be most similar to getting Yao back on the court with his CAST on his leg... I think Yao would be about the same as Ilgauskas, if he played with the cast on his leg.

    Yeah, when I was reading this, I couldn't believe some people actually said they wouldn't do the deal for Iguodala. You'd be insane not to do that deal. Iguodala BY FAR has more value than Shane Battier.

    Every time I see a thread titled "would you trade Battier for..." (insert random scrub), this is how I feel:

    in the words of matt bullard's overly used phrase..."WOW!"
    and that is in no way a GOOD wow.
    you fail sir!
