Hell, I'll throw in a bigger bag of chips to go with Waiters.

Waiters and a can of sour cream and onion Pringles for a mini bag of baked lays?

Damn. That was good.

Best of luck to the HEAT as well, and if you guys ever wanna drop by around here, you're more than welcome by me. You hashed out that trade pretty freakin well. And I think the Suns may give you IT for a bag of chips if they can keep Dragic .

Oh, and I'm sure you don't want him, but you could have Waiters for the same bag of chips, or less.

Waiters actually played well against the Heat - marking Wade - when he was with Cleveland on Christmas Day.

So, even though I told Panda Friend that there was no way to make a trade, I came up with something perhaps. I think it's good for Thunder but I'm not sure, so I'd appreciate your feedback.

I'd still have concerns over trading Perk, especially since KD just showed so much loyalty in his media rant, and it doesn't move the needle at all w Young. He defines bad basketball team to me. Fantastic, amazing for LA.

What I said there.

should have went in on the mo williams deal.

IT, plumlee for perk, lamb? PHX solves their pg problem. We can then get rid of reggie to some other team for a good backup 3 or big man.

^^^

I'd do that in a heartbeata, PHX doesn't even pick up the phone.

There are some rumors that we we're interested in Afflalo now, perkins is really the only way salary would work. That would mean starting Mitch and having no backup at all unless there was a third team involved. The Waiters trade really screwed up a lot of flexibility, which is okay in this case because I don't think Afflalo helps that much. He would be the most consistent 2 on our roster though.

Since I don't get around here much, I just want to encourage you guys. There is about 1% chance the Heat make any noise in the post season so this is a great year for you to win a championship. I wish you the very best. You have a helluva team. Have faith in them!

Congrats man!

Thanks! I was so worried about losing Birdman. I think we did ok. I'm not a real fan of two brothers on a team, but we'll see how it goes.

You guys did great too! Kanter > Jackson for you. :-)

Now let's mess everyone up and meet in the final. Good luck Thunder fans!!!

Joest is pissed :lol:

Love keeping Lamb, still like him better than Waiters and hope he gets a fair shot again next year.

It has to be that Presti refused to trade Lamb. It couldn't possibly be that no one wanted Lamb. We all heard the LeBron for Lamb rumors and Presti just shot them down because he'd rather hang on to Lamb than improve the roster.

Meh, if Presti had really wanted to dump him I'm sure Utah wouldn't have said no. Presti just isn't going to add value unnecessarily.

Thunder did a great job in my opinion. Reel it in, people.

All kidding aside would you guys trade Dion Waiters for a high second round pick from Philly?

I would.

Save salary, give Morrow more minutes. I can't think of another guy on the roster I'd cut minutes for first. And that's even after I've said Dion's improved.

I think it would probably be best for both parties. I don't know if Dion's a bust or not, but he's clearly not a play-off-the-ball two guard. I didn't realize how ball dominant Westbrook was without Durant on the floor. I also haven't seen Westbrook rest for more than 5 minutes in any game since the trade. There's no role for a potential sixth man right now in OKC. His third year in the league and he's been relegated to defense and catch-and-shoot opportunities. I think he could have benefited from one more year on a bad team because he's clearly regressed on the offensive end since last year.
