Re: deal coming soon
We have to be getting a pick in return; it only makes sense to announce a trade like this so early if it's to lure players in that pick's range to Portland for a workout.
It's kinda cool that we have two well-respected members on two well-respected forums posting hints like this... must be basically a done deal.

The buzz I'm reading says it won't involve Marion, but that's buzz.

I will say this. Yes, there is another team involved in the trade.

I'm asking for very little information. I just want to know if I should hit up the grocery store or order take out.

Re: deal coming soon
 I think this cough syrup is splendid..I swear I just read a thread that suggests we're going to make a big trade soon.

Re: deal coming soon
How soon is soon? Soon as in the next couple days, or soon as in never?

I'm going out on a limb here, but I'd put money down that there's a 99.9% chance that other team..... is also an NBA team.
