My cousin from NY just told me about this trade. I love it and I hope we can get OJ

Glad to see Seattle has the sense to trade down to get Lopez. It makes sense for the Clippers only if they really like either Gordon or Westbrook and don't think they'll be there at 7, or they think Minnesota will pick Love 3rd and the Clippers can pick Mayo 4th. I'm hoping for Mayo.

Good trade for both sides. It's nice to see the FO being so active this off season.

Consensus is that Minny will likely pick Mayo if available at 3.

If Miami takes Mayo to swap with you guys and Bayless+fillers, Then Beasley drops to Minny.

You probably would have to throw in Brand and they throw in Marion to make Miami take Mayo.

I really don't get why everyones ecstatic...our franchise blows and who knows what the protection is and if it isn't like Minny, we won't be having a 1st rounder in 2010, which will be a better draft then 09. One of Bayless/Westbrook/Gordon would have been there at #7 guaranteed, but we decide to give up a first to get one of them? Wow.

Since it has been talked about for a while now, Do you see the heat and clipps doing the deal. They say that the Clips offerd 7#,Brand for Bealsey,Marion and the heat declined. would you guys be mad to hear that the Clips traded 4#,Brand for Beasley,Marion

mj_shoefanatic · Post #17 » by **mj_shoefanatic** » Thu Jun 26, 2008 7:32 pm

^Yes because we would be trading EB based on potential.

this is my speculation, maybe it is the T-wolves first round pick the clippers own

If Minny picks Mayo at #3, is this trade a failure? Isn't this the intent of Baylor and Duneleavy? Or did they seriously want Bayless or Westbrook that badly?

Bucher says the trade is likely to happen if Mayo isnt available at 4...which should be.
