Big 'OL' NBA BM

Paul Gasol heads to LA for Kwame Brown.

The Lakers gave up Kwame Brown, rookie Javaris Crittenton and two first-round draft picks for Gasol. Mckie is a toss in for the Griz and so is Marc Gasol. Kwame will give the Griz almost 10 million off the books next year. SO it looks like the Griz will get nothing for Gasol pretty much, but they will make out with 2 first round picks from the Lakers. the 08 pick and 2010.
This years picks hould end up somewhere around 20. Hardly something that will replace Gasol in the offseason, but they will also get that 10 million in extra salary.
Wow, a trade right out of the blue. I was shocked to see it. I am sure Kobe will celebrate by going out and tossing around a white chick.

A 12 PLAYER TRADE?
Rumors are swirling, but it sounds like a huge trade could be in the works for Jason Kidd. Portland and Dallas will be the other two teams. These types of trades are very difficult to complete, but we will see how this one pans out.

Dallas would recieve Jason Kidd, Malik Allen, and Darrell Armstrong..... Wait can that be right? I thought he died in Rush Hour 3?

Portland gets... Devin Harris, Brandon Bass,

New Jersey gets... Jarret Jack, Channing Frye, Travis Outlaw, Jerry Stackhouse, Diop, Devean George and a first round from both teams and cash from both teams.

This trade is insane. But I really think the Nets get what they want and Cuban is crazy enough to pull it off. He is getting rid of Stackhouse who has 3 years left. It works out for all teams involved.
Damon Stoudamire made the right decision and signed with the Spurs. He dissed the Celtics who thought they had the inside track. Good work DS, good work!


Both the Nets and Griz seem to be the most active teams in the trade market. The Nets are close to getting Stromile swift for Jason Collins. Stromile is in the last year of his deal while Collins has one more year left.

Word out of Miami is that the Heat are shopping Shaq. The Heat deny this rumor, but I would believe it is true especially since Shaq is committed to playing his contract out the final two years.

Duke Blue Devils Suck
That's right folks. You may have been the college basketball player of the year, but you have spend the second year in a row with at least 2 bodies in front of you at your position.
JJ Redick has barely smelled the court. Two coaches, and the same result. Sorry JJ coach K may have made you into and incredible college player, and taught you how to get out of DUI's, but he can't get you on the court int he NBA. Reddick should be traded sometime before the deadline for a second round pick and maybe another garbage player. He may fit in well somewhere where he can camp out on the wing and shoot.
