Daye hardly plays though, which is stupid as fuck.

I do somewhat hope the Cavs trade Varejao at the deadline though. His value is at an all time high, and won't get any higher. Could get a good deal for him but I wouldn't deal him just to deal him.

i dont think they will

 

[elcheato]

i dont think they will

Neither do I but if someone is offering a couple good young pieces, I'd pull the trigger.

Also, even though I hate Broussard, he wrote an article the other day about potential trades that should happen and he put up Daniel Gibson and Omri Casspi for OJ Mayo, which I would also love to happen lol.

 

[Mexi]

thats a really nice trade actually

Broussard also said Pau/Morris for Lowry/Scola
I'd do it, but Houston won't

The Rockets are enamored with Pau but yea, they won't trade Lowry.

 

[Mexi]

i didnt read it, but i heard McHale LOVES Pau

Lakers wont do anything drastic though

I see them going after an under the radar guy like Leandro Barbosa, who's having a really nice season

 

[Mexi]

lol

cmon CP, damn

 

[RipCity32]

Did he say any Piston ones?

 

[elcheato]

He threw up 5 trade possibilities, and I actually believe one of them was Prince for Beasley.

Just trades he thinks that make sense and should happen.

His first 3 were blockbusters that are incredibly unlikely, then he threw the Mayo and Beasley trades in at the end.

5. Detroit Pistons trade Tayshaun Prince to the Minnesota Timberwolves for Michael Beasley

Detroit is horrible and needs a major overhaul. They signed Prince to keep an asset, and turning him into the talented Beasley could end up being a coup. I know Beasley has his issues, but he's also got game, and with the way things are going in Detroit, it's worth the risk.

By adding Beasley, the Pistons would have a young nucleus of Brandon Knight, Ben Gordon, Beasley and the impressive Greg Monroe. It's not championship-caliber, but it has a chance of being better than what they have now. Joe Dumars once helped rejuvenate the careers of Billups and Ben Wallace. Maybe he can get through to Beasley, who after two trades would perhaps be a bit humbled.

For Minnesota, it clears out its congested small forward spot and gives Derrick Williams room to grow. The Timberwolves need to find out whether Williams can play the 3 full-time, and what better way than to move Beasley out of the way. In case you haven't noticed, Minny has done quite well without Beasley in the lineup, going 5-4 in the first nine games he missed due to injury.

 

[RipCity32]

I'd shit myself and then eat it if we actually did that. I love Super Cool Beas.

 

[elcheato]

Mo Williams would be a great fit on the Lakers, but the Clippers would never trade him there. Shame.

 

[Mexi]

he'll be a free agent though

 

[RipCity32]

Why doesn't LA try Gilbert?

 

[elcheato]

Goudelock is better then Gilbert at this point

 

[RipCity32]

Kinda crazy how hard he has fallen off.

 

[elcheato]

Every time Charles Barkley speaks on Inside the NBA, he directs it to Ernie Johnson, even if he's responding to Shaq or Kenny lol
