Yeah, this is most likely true. Too bad. We could really gun for that 7th seed if he did.

I really couldn't care less about the difference between the 14th pick and the 13th pick this year. Or every year.

Sure the hell has been an effective starter. He is horse s--t alongside Jennings. Can't wait to see how Reddick is when he is getting his 20 min a game!

I don't know how anyone could say otherwise. Just look at that video clip of him saying he got it all. He is gonna drag down the locker room. Getcha popcorn ready...

We sucked back then too, but I used to LIKE following this team A LOT when Harris was the GM. I hate following this team and attemting to get emotionally invested in it with this clown Hammond running the show. Not to name names, but even certain complete aholes -Europa- who would've given their left nut to trade Harris for a guy like Hammond at the time cant even deny they liked following the Bucks a lot more back then then they do now. Ellis over Curry put me in a VERY bad place with this team. Trading Harris/Beno for Redick while keeping Ellis has just about completely poisened the incredible love I have for this team. I doubt anything will ever kill it completely, but I wouldn't put it past Hammond to do it either. This definitely feels like rock bottom right now.

You like Redick, I get it. You're willing to go against your entire philosophy if its a guy you like. Believe me, I love Redick. Early on I was on the bandwagon that we could be an Indy type team with Redick replacing Monta (before we dropped down to earth), but this trade is an 8th seed push and nothing more. And for probably 4 more years.

I want Larry Harris back. Seriously.

hey guys, don't understand this. I mean, it would be way better to get rid of Ellis and get Smith in the process, that's for granted, but at the end of the day, you guys got a basketball player in exchange of a couple scrubs. What I mean is that even though it isn't the best possible trade, it isn't horrible either. Just for reference, Spurs were after Reddick as well, and I have no doubt they know a thing or two about players. You got Reddick basically for nothing. What gives?

Maybe it's because I can't see what's the big deal with Tobias Harris?

Of course.

So, I'm reading that the Josh Smith trade would have been Udoh, Udrih, LRMAM, and a 1st? Seriously, did Hammond actually want to keep Ellis?

Well Ellis does have it all. Both Monta and Hammond can see that.

At this point I hope Gooden can get some PT just for the lulz.... if we aren't going to try to blow it up or win now, might as well see some quality entertainment while being in NBA limbo.

One game they should just start Ish Smith, Daniels, Ekpe, Gooden and the Vanilla Gorilla for **** and giggles.

No. Way off. Completely wrong. The primary story is Hammond being f*cking ret*rded enough to have all his hopes pinned on walking down the aisle on a too-good-to-be-true-offer with a bride that was stiff arming away serious suitors like Houston without barely letting them even sniff the coochie. We have a f*cking r*tard charading as a GM an nobody outside of this board is calling him on it, least of all Herb f*cking Kohls clueless ass..

I don't understand what happened, how to reconcile all the reports from the past hour or 2.

1. Mil was going to send Udrih to Dal for Beaubois and Dahntay Jones (Jones, who ended up traded to Atl for Morrow), IF Udrih wasn't part of a Josh Smith deal.

2. Mil was going to send Udrih, Moute, Udoh, pick to Atl for Josh Smith.

3. Mil was going to send Ellis and ____ to Atl for Smith and Devin Harris.

4. Mil sends Udrih, Harris, Lamb to Orl for Redick, Ish Smith, and Ayon (in a move that was supposed to get us a SG to replace Ellis).

For #1 to have any basis, it means that Udrih was not, at least at one point in time, part of a Josh Smith or a Redick package?

Was #3 ever on the table? Did Kohl take it off?

If we were to have gotten Smith without Udrih (by sending Ellis or maybe Dalembert, don't know who else would have returned Smith), then would we have done a deal with Dal rather than with Orl?
