There is no limit to the amount of first round draft picks a team can own.

[BETCATS]

Tyrus Thomas and Diaw, Corey Maggete for Blatche, Rashard lewis and their 1st round draft pick?

Do we rufie everyone in Washington's front office or let them do that to the Lady Cats?

[ohara831]

I have not heard or seen any rumors regarding the Bobcats since the Blantch for Tyrus one where the Cats declined the deal. No one is playing well enough to draw any interest. What a freaking shame. Maybe things will change a little over the next couple weeks.

We get both of LA's first rounders and one of Houstons the less favourable pick. We also get Thabeet and Walton who are two bums although I suppose Walton could just stand in the corner waiting for an open 3 and we could D-League Thabeet

We give LA DJA for Josh Mcroberts and their first rounder. We also let Kobe sleep with whichever Lady Cat he wishes... deal?

Insiders: what's the recap for the Bobcats?

Best case scenario is to trade Diaw. But he is overweight, not playing well, and difficult to motivate.

[Plowright]

Apparently Diaw thought about retiring this offseason! Why would anyone trade for someone so unmotivated!? Maybe, just maybe because he is an expiring.

the rumor: Ric Bucher: I'm told that Lamar Odom is desperate to go back to L.A. The Lakers will not take him. The Clippers would love to make that deal, but they don't have the pieces that Dallas would want right now because Dallas wants expiring contracts to be a free-agent player. But don't be surprised if Lamar Odom makes his way back to L.A. It just won't be this season.

the trade:

plus: clippers 2014 first (lottery protected) to dallas

2nd trade:
http://games.espn.go.com/nba/tradeMa...radeId=7f95m53

cats out: mags
cats in: walton, world peace

lakers out: walton, metta, both lakers 1sts
lakers in: mags

why: we pay 3 mil next year and 7.7 mil the following to get 2 #1's this year. we won't be using the salary anyway. they lose 10 mil combined over the next 2 years and upgrade the sf position. we still have luke walton expiring next year which is a more movable contract than mags 10+ mil expiring and then metta's the following year for 7.7 expiring.

i got a crazy trade for you guys, no idea if it could get done.

cha out: henderson and najera

minn out: derrick williams

might be overvaluing our guy here, but i think henderson could fill a need for minnesota and do it pretty well.
