Shaq back to LA??? 

Post#1 » by MJallday59 » Fri Jan 18, 2008 6:15 pm

I know this may sound crazy but....

Miami is in panic mode and they now realize they can't possibly win with Shaq anymore. I also think Riley would love to get from under his contract so he'd "possibly" consider adding a first round pick to the equation..so... how about a three way trade with Orlando


Miami receives
Kwame Brown/Javaris Crittendon/Pat Garrity and the rights to Fran Vasquez


Lakers Receive
Shaq and Miami's 2009 first round pick

Orlando Receives

Miami wouldn't do this. Shaq is still a big draw for them and they would want a decient C in return cause they have nobody to play that position for them in the next 2 years. Fran Vazquez I doubt would want to be bought out just so he could go to a rebuilt team.

Miami can't trade their '09 pick, and Orlando isn't taking Radmanovic's contract for an expiring. (Looks like the Orlando part doesn't work under the CBA anyway; Radman is paid more than 125% of Garrity's deal.)

And to add, no way Miami gives up Shaq and a first! That's dumb!
