is that .1% chance that we're trading for Candice Parker?

How about if you just answer this -> Would you be happy if the trade went through?

Samuel

Right, and the dude said no on Marion, so...

No Kirilenko, no Lewis, no Marion, and most unfortunately, no Ricky Davis.

Fork

Talks of a BIG TRADE and we're bringing in 15 point guards to work out in the next couple weeks. A couple were additions to the workout schedule today even. Not a coincidence. (also bringing in 13 PF's but just 6 SG's and 4 C's - again, not coincidence)

If I had to guess, I'd say it's Jack and somebody to Atlanta for either the #11, or one of their 15 SF's or both. Then, trade a couple 2nd rounders to get into the late first round and pick a guy like Ramon Sessions.

Who is "the dude"?

What are you talking about?

FWIW, I would bet it's Jefferson + the 17th, though, if I had to guess...

Reep

Speculations:

NJ: RJ + #17 for Zach. I'm not sure how I feel about RJ at his current salary, but can easily see NJ doing this. It would also fit with the level of player they are trying to get in. Doesn't fit with the focus on point guards.

Atlanta: #3 and change for Zach; #11 for Jack. Needs a PG. People say Conley Jr., but I can't see that at #3. Jack + something for one of Atlanta's picks. Zach included if for #3, not if #11?

Pistons: #15 [+ Prince] for Jack [+ Zach]?

Clippers: #14 for Jack

Sacramento: #10 + Bibby for Jack + Zach?

Washington: #16 + Jamison for Zach?

Can anyone add to this or knock any of these out? MM, any comments?

MM, you did the right thing. There's nothing wrong with giving people a head's up if you hear something. The important thing is to respect the source and not to burn them; generally that means keeping the particulars quiet. If you can hint one way or another, that's great. If not, you're still giving us good information.

It's amazing how something that gets posted on a board can trash or delay a deal. Each side of a deal possesses asymmetric information and has their own preferences. If you post something from the point of view of one team, it could cause the other team to reassess what they're giving up.

I, for one, appreciate any shred of info. So you have my thanks.

UOSean

I'm hoping for a team guy like Shane Battier.

Samuel

That one makes me squeamish.

MM, is Reep 'getting warmer'?

Blazer Freak

I hope to god you're wrong. If we are giving up Zach, we need a impact player at SF to make sure we are a .500 team until Oden/Aldridge are ready to dominate.
