More trades coming? KP on 95.5
My buddy just texted me saying he heard KP on 95.5 talking about trades coming to light in the next couple of days. Did anyone else hear this interview? Is he just talking about the details of the already proposed trades or what?

He wasn't able to comment about the Indiana deal so that's probably all it is.

Re: More trades coming? KP on 95.5
I think he is just taking about Bayless et al. He can't talk about it for a while, so he need to assure the public that the rumors they have heard were correct. Just my guess.

Yeah I like the lineup how it is now. Not sure I want to see any more changes. Unless its for Josh Smith or something.

Re: More trades coming? KP on 95.5
If we view Ike as a capable backup, I could see us moving Webster and Frye in a deal for a vet SF. I love both players, but they are both going to be huge capholds next season and will likley have to be let walk if we want to sign a big FA.

Re: More trades coming? KP on 95.5
Remember last year how they hinted at a trade that we all got excited about..when it turned out to be the one for Rudy which we already all knew about?
My guess is it's the same kind of "trades coming" comment.

Shawn Marion would be pretty sweet! Maybe for Raef, Outlaw, Blake and next year's #1 pick?

Re: More trades coming? KP on 95.5
We don't need an all-star at every position. Just the right role players/complimentary players. We have a great roster. They are young, have small contracts, have great chemistry and just want to be here.
I LOVE our roster!

Re: More trades coming? KP on 95.5
I don't think we have to worry about having all stars at every position. Even with Bayless, Roy (in theory) in the backcourt, and LaMarcus and Oden as the PF and C, I think thats 1 or 2 All Stars. All Star level talent, but not necessarily all stars.

Re: More trades coming? KP on 95.5
Don't get too excited about this.
The Indiana trade can't be announced until the new salaries take effect on July 1st
Neither can the deal with Batum be officially announced until then.
There might be a minor deal coming, but I think that's all it is.
There is a reason the press conference is on the 1st

OUCH
marion for FREE wouldn't be worth the 50 mil+ in luxury tax he'd cost to lock up long-term, let alone 4 of our top assets.

I actually heard July 8th because of something in Diagu's contract. Of course, it was on The Fan, so who knows how accurate it is.
