    are you kidding me you know how many stupid freaking redundant threads we are going to have saying:

    who would you rather have now? Battier or Gay?

    ZOMG! We should have kept Battier!

    Shane held kobe to 15 points last night

    Kobe avgs 54ppg against Rudy!!!!!


    lets give them Cook for Gay instead even throw in Dorsey for free!

    Yeah, my thoughts exactly. Without Gay I'm not sure if they could make it to the POs. That line you quoted ("a veteran defensive presence away") to me is just the cheap-*ss owner's excuse so fans won't throw eggs at him.

    Well, at least we have a chance to say "Rudy avgs 30ppg against Kobe", instead of "ZOMG! Shane scored double digit last night!!!!!! Against JJ Reddick!!!!!!"

    This is so ironic. Gay would be a perfect fit for us right now, maybe Landry + Shane gets it done?

    I've watched very few Memphis games the last couple years. How does Rudy Gay rate on the defensive end? (guarding the passing lanes, blocking, perimeter D)

    I think this rumor is ridiculous. I don't understand what Memphis would gain from trading Gay for a guy like Prince. Memphis is afraid to overpay Gay so they go and trade for another overpaid guy? It's not like they are looking to dump a bad contract, they have the lowest payroll in the league and the only bad contract is Zach Randolph. The only sensible trade is to trade Gay for a younger player/high draft pick.

    Of course this is Memphis we're talking about here.

    Same exact thing I thought when I first heard about it. Where are they going to get their 20+ pts from?

    when is he a FA, this summer? You have to ask if Morey would be willing to pay him, otherwise it makes no sense to trade for him. I dont think Morye would, well les.....
