This sucks! Kwame, Javaris Scrub and 2 1st Rounders?
We should have done that deal: JWill, Ricky and our 1st rounder for Gasol and Swift...c'mon Riley wake up!

We could use an expiring to pick up a PG from Memphis instead.

They now have Conley, Lowry, Navarro and Crittenton. Surely they won't keep them all.

Navarro is the only decent guy there...all others...I'd say that a turd can lead a team better.

I would like to thank the Miami Heat for putting us in this wonderful position... THANK YOU PAT REILLY!!!!!

Hmmm...is Pat Reilly a new player the Lakers acquired?

Conley is going to be fantastic brazillian but they won't give us him. Lowry was looking really good and Critt could turn out to be better than all of them.

I'd take any one of the four

Trade Checker says that we could have traded Ricky and JWill for Gasol or them two for Gasol and Swift. Both trades work. Damn Riley!

Actually you should be thanking the Memphis GM... apparently Gasol flirted with his wife or something. Great trade for LA. There isn't much in that trade that has to do w/ the Heat outside of the backfired Kwame for Caron trade. At any rate, congrats on become serious contenders in the West.

we couldn't add #1s to the deal, which obviously was the key (and cap room) for the Grizz

Ricky and JWill in expiring? That's lots of Cap room!

So yeah, Davis and Cook for Mike Miller works. I'd hate to see Cook go but Miller fits the Heat to a 'T.'

PG- Draft/Quinn/Vet
SG- Wade/ Miller/Pietrus
SF- Miller/Pietrus/Wright
PF- Haslem/Johnson
C- O'Neal/Blount/Zo?/Anthony

Random masturbatory trades are trades too... we shouldn't be discrimi-hatin on the board!

I would have done this deal with Memphis and I think it is a better deal than what L.A. offered:

JWill, Wright, and Cook

for

Gasol and Lowry

I would have been pushing this deal, though, if I was Miami:

Jason Williams, Ricky Davis, Dorell Wright, Daequan Cook,

for

Pau Gasol, Mike Miller, and Kyle Lowry

I would even have allowed Memphis the right to switch picks with us this year, as long as we didn't land the top pick in the draft.

j will, haslem, cook, davis

JWill for MMiller works straight up.


at this point why not give Quinn and Cook all the minutes possible?

Anyways,

G - Fisher/Farmar
G - Bryant
F - Odom
F - Gasol
C - Bynum

That's lovely if it all works out.
They might not be a direct rival, like the Yankees are not a direct rival to the Marlins considering they play in the opposite league. But I still hate the crap out of the Yankees and the Lakers largely do to their fan bases.
