Re: Chad Ford's Detroit Trade Ideas
I think Ford has the 1st rounder going the wrong direction in the Denver deal.

That's as dumb as the original posters trade idea. Brandon Roy, LaMarcus Aldridge and Greg Oden would all be welcomed additions to the Pistons or any other team. Rudy Fernandez and #13 are also assets I would assume people would "consider looking at" too.
As for the original post. That is the worst trade I have seen in a while. Detroit has no reason whatsoever to make that deal. Maybe, and I mean maybe Detroit might consider Outlaw, #13 and something for Billups. I still don;t think they would though

Re: Blazers/Pistons trade idea
i think he meant that portland has nothing that detroit could feasibly look at. i assume that the three you mentioned are untouchable.

Re: Carmelo
And now for something crazy...
Billups/ Prince/ Filler for Melo/ Filler
Rasheed/ Filler for Eddy Curry/ Filler maybe even McDyess and Afflalo for curry
I'm still an Eddy Curry fan, and I think one more change of location would show what his career will be like. Curry is destined to work every player on our roster.
In a couple years...
Stuckey
Rip
Melo
Amir
Curry

Re: Carmelo
the nuggets giving up AI and Melo. eeeh. seriously there is no reason to expect Melo to get traded. George Karl denied it. Melo's agent denied it. The Nuggets have AI and Camby to shop around the league. No reason to move Melo.

Re: Carmelo
If they want to win now they have to move Melo. They don't have a team to use with him. It's going to be ALOT harder to trade A.I. It's much easier to build a win now team too with A.I.

how is it going to be a lot harder to trade AI. hes an all star with an expiring contract. trading AI isn't hard. its finding the right deal.
the nuggets arent going anywhere if they move Melo but the Lotto. thats ridiculous... why do you think all these teams are calling on him. and what do we get back... older guys that cant fill Melos shoes. I dont care of its billups from the pistons are jefferson or carter from the nets. either way its a big time loser for the nuggets. we are talking another post mutombo era here... Billups understands what thats like.
the fans will continue to support the team if they trade AI... but Melo... screw ticket sales merchandise etc.

Re: Carmelo
A.I. make 20 Mill. That's a lot harder to trade for than Melo's contract. It's a huge rebuilding process for Denver if they don't make a move now.

thats the point. the knicks have Marbury under the exact same 19 million dollar contract and they are getting offers from him purely for the financial benefits of his expiring contract... AI has the same contract...only he can actually still ball.
the team plays zero D. the vets gotta go for younger guys. it is a rebuilding process and hopefully it will be a short one. you dont trade your 24 year old all star and pile up less talent that is older. that makes zero sense for an 8th seed team. The only way the Nuggets trade Melo is if they cant swallow their pride and admit their AI experiment failed. you want melo i get it. but no DUI makes trading him to the pistons a smart trade.
i'm not a fan of the nuggets front office, but they arent exactly bernie bickerstaff either.

Re: Carmelo
i think that if the pistons offered enough cap relief and young talent, the nuggets would give up melo and just start over from scratch in '10 in the name of "fixing the image." give up sheed and prince for k-mart and melo, you've got two expiring contracts and the giant albatross of k-mart lifted off of your cap.
plus, the citizens of denver won't have to abide by watching "thugs" any more.*
