Memphis/Miami/??? - Jason Williams to be moved according to Tillery (link)
Memphis Grizzlies beat writer, Ron Tillery, has an article stating that Jerry West has a 3 team trade worked out that will move Jason Williams. Also confirms Memphis interest in Mighty Mouse but no deal is done. The most interesting tidbit is that the Grizzlies organiztion has decided (like I suspected they would) that this team has run its course and needs a small C4 charge to the bloated roster and payroll.
The thrid team is not known at this time but I think it might be Boston. I guess I will have to follow with my obligatory trade guess next.
Quote:
If everything goes according to the Grizzlies' summer plan, Jason Williams no longer will be their main man.
The point guard is close to being traded in a three-team deal that would include Miami, according to an NBA source familiar with the Grizzlies' dealings. It is not known where Williams would land in the proposed deal.

Re: Memphis/Miami/??? - Jason Williams to be moved according to Tillery
It would make sense to trade JWill before we take on Damon Stoudamire. Sign Damon and then all the sudden, no takers for JWill, then you're really in trouble.
Tillery hates JWill and takes potshots at him whenever possible, so I'm sure he had fun with this article.

I think it is becoming more apparent that the team needs to be retooled more than the front office cared to admit last year. While they did an admirable job in turning a joke into a competitive team, it is now time to move past that and take the next step.

I've been duped on one Memphis trade rumor already, so I'll wait this one out.

i'd say there's a rather large difference between sports talk radio and journalism.

new rumor is Ej for Williams and James Posey with no third team being involved. Sounds too good for Miami getting Posey back as well
