    Default Are we in the Orlando trade?

    I know this may be coming from left field, but hasn't everything this organization done come from there also. I have a feeling we may be involved in the Orlando trade. We have enough cap space to help all of them. Who else feels this may be happening. Who thinks we are in the works for something else trade wise.

    Rumor has it Clev. is the team. They want another PF vet short term to give Tristin Thompson time to develop & Kris Humphries will be going to them on a one or two year deal in a sign and trade. Of course it is just rumors now.

    That's all we have have been reading. The Ben Gordon deal was kept hush hush until it happened

    I'd be surprised, but only because of the lack of desired assets coming our way:

    Desired Assets:

    young talent on rookie contracts: (neither team Nets or Magic have anything in this department they are willing to part with).

    draft picks: (doubtful Orlando gives away their franchise player AND draft picks, Nets already gave away this past year's first round pick, so we might be waiting for a while....and with DWill, JJ, Crash, and Howard it's doubtful a 1st round pick from them would ever bare a NBA starter).

    Cap relief/flexibility: We'd be included in the deal because we have space that they need (And the Nets will be in Cap hell in a few years).

    Cho will plug the respective pieces into his database machine and see the results: sweet treat like a cheesecake or a turd

    Looking Orlando, Brooklyn, Atlanta and 1 other team involved (no need for the Cats to help 2 teams in our division):

    @johnhollinger
    Gotta tip hat to Nets mgmt if they pull this off ... basically going kitchen sink here, and all kinds of weird BYC issues involved too.

    @johnhollinger
    Wondering where the Hawks are in all this ... wouldn't you rather have Horford than Lopez?

    Marshon is probably the only good young player we would be in the mix for.But frankly, unless we're in a position to draft shabazz muhammed next year,i seriously doubt we're gonna add anymore young wing players until we evaluate our own.And i wouldn't give up a pick to do it.I'd take on a 2 year salary for a 1st rounder from orlando,cause they're probably gonna suck for a few years.But short of that i'd sit this one out.

    I can't see any real benefit in all this for us . Im sure if we not gaining any thing Cho isn't going to mess with it . I think its a much better chance we end up getting Blair from the Spurs. He would be a good fit at a cheap price and could end up a long term piece.


    Thanks Ammofan!

    I agree. I saw Blair said he thinks he may get traded. I'd love to have him.

    I hope so.

    At this point it appears the only way we're going to add talent is through trades because no one wants to sign here.
