Rubio Playing his Kobe Bryant card

[chatard5]

Yeah, I wouldn't do 4, but I would do this years and 2011s. I would do Hibbert, too (but I would also do Hibbert for Conley). I don't think I could do rush, I really like him and he will go great with Granger offensively and defensively.

Yeah, don't even post that crazyness, we would be awesome! To make it even worse we were even closer to the 1st round pick last year. Rush may or may not have fallen to #17, my bet is he would have. Rose/Rush/Granger but not Hibbert.

I like to win as many games as we can. We could make the playoffs next year, I like out chances. They may want Ford or Jack as a back-up to Conley or Rubio. Maybe they want McBob. But yeah, we don't have much to offer, it'd have to be a 3 team trade. I could definitely see a team wanting Foster as well. We could get a first round pick sent to Memphis there, too. We would have to take on 2 or 3 bad contracts, though, and I don't know how the money would work out. As long as they all expire by 2010/11 with Murphy, Dunleavy, and Tinsley then I am fine with it. And like I said, if they pick Rubio maybe we can get Conley for cheaper.

This is really all just BS talk that 99% won't happen. It's the off-season and I love doing this stuff this time of year, along with the trade deadline. Really I like doing it all the time. I want a true great PG, not 2 pretty good ones. I won't give up Rush to do it though (unless New Orleans is selling off big time).

I actually did read an article somewhre saying NOH may want to get rid of all their huge contracts and could be dumb enough to put CP3 in with it. I don't know how long their contracts are or what they want. I think 2 years left is too long for them, though. Plus we'd be in the luxury tax. But maaaan, CP3, Rush/Peja, Granger, Chandler, Hibbert. Kinda just combining teams, but that'd be awesome. That is like 99.999999% chance not happening, but a guy can dream. I would like to just land Chandler. When I think about it maybe picking up Daniels option isn't horrible. He would be expiring and someone may take him. He isn't a bad player at all. We would have to have a deal in place. Then again, if they didn't do it this year, why would they next? Oh well, just another piece to add in to the craziness.

dgrange posted if it is possible in the trade board. There was a poster that said Rush/Hibbert/#13 could do it. I don't want to give up Rush. Maybe add in Ford to a 3rd team for a draft pick that would go to Memphis. Also add in our 2011 pick. Take back Jaric and another bad contract. I don't think it's gonna happen. But this is what the off-season is for, to dream!

I would do ANYTHING besides Granger and Rush. Give them 4 first round picks and I would do it. That would be awesome.... Rubio/Rush/Granger all for the future. Then Murphy for now and Foster. I don't know how Rubio's defense is, though. Euros aren't very good defenders often. I think I'd prefer Memphis drafting Rubio and us trading for Conley. He is good at defense and would be easier to get.

4 first rounds picks for Rubio? That's a lot of picks man. I wouldn't trade Rush or Hibbert to add Rubio to be honest. I'd agree to swap the first round picks, and give them a 2011 first round pick unprotected. Not sure if there's anyone on our team that's like, but anyone if they truly want someone besides those three, which would probably be Ford. I'm just upset now we didn't lose like 15 more games. I know it sounds stupid but winning those 15 games kinda back fired on us now. If we didn't, we could be serious contenders by 2011. I mean, Rubio, Rush, Granger, Hibbert, Dunleavy off the bench..... i mean, seriously..... now i'm depressed.

Crazy talk! I would do everything I could to keep Rush in that scenario, but if they asked for Roy as the centerpiece of a Rubio deal...ummm...peace.

Id offer Ford, #13, and 2 2nds FOR Jaric, #2. I feel as though that is fair. Basically they get a good still young pg and 3 picks in exchnage for an ugly contract, and the #2 pick which reportedly doesnt want to play for them. They could then go after the likes of Blair.
Ford, Mayo , Gay, Blair, Gasol
Rubio, Rush, Granger, Muprhy, Hibbert

No way they do that. Already have a PG, they don't get an impact guy at #13, and shedding Jaric isn't worth giving up the #2 pick in the draft.

They will get better offers, and while Rubio has reportedly made Memphis a no go destination, they'd still be better off taking him and holding other team for ransom.
