Live Draft Lottery Talk; Heat have deal for #2? Pg 59

[klemen4]

I think there are basically just 2 trading partners:

1)memphis-beasley
2)clippers-rose

Two Memphis options

Miller, Conley,5# for Haslem,Banks,2#
or
Miller, Lowry,5# for Blount,#2

Perfect trade for us:
Miller, Conley,5# for Blount,Banks,#2

...Draft Lopez at 5, then wait till next season for Brand/Boozer and let Marion walk

09/10 team:

Conley/Quinn
Wade/Cook
Miller/Wright
Brand/Haslem
Lopez/Mourning

At this time tomorrow I will either be crying myself to sleep or too excited to sleep. The suspense will kill me before it arrives though.

just wondering, what ever happened to the

#2, Mark Blount for #4, Chris Wilcox deal?

if anythin that makes the most sense and is less complicated. you get an expiring, and probably OJ mayo at the same time (minny will pick love)

Check out Beasley's blog before the draft. I hope we draft and keep him. If we don't get a lot for him, I'll be disappointed.

Go Heat!!!

i have a feeling if we pass up on Beasley, he will unleash his wrath upon the league like never seen before... so i hope we get him

i'm a nyk fan but this sounds pretty reliable to me.

"This poster has several connections and plays ball at UNC. This is his post, just thought i would share. He says his source is very reliable.

I have the LATEST news... My source is GOOD!
Ok first off I was in the chat and I posted some of my info then they just confirmed it on espn..... OK,

The Heat were saying they want Beasley at first so they can see what kind of offers they can get for him.... And they gathered their info so they know what they can get for him....

Now they put it out there that they might want OJ, they are doing the same exact thing with him that they did with Beasley...

Beasley is they guy who they are more than likely to draft, unless something major happens, it doesn't matter what else you hear BUT they aren't drafting him for themselves.. They plan on drafting him and shipping him to the Sonics for Wilcox and Mayo(assuming he falls to 4).

The Timberwolves Front Office are playing their cards very smart because they want Mayo more than ANYTHING he's the guy on their board, they don't want Beasley at all, he will get traded if he's selected by Minny...

Everyone thinks the Wolves will trade who ever they select regardless that's where the tricky part come in about the heat and sonics... The Heat are thinking if they can take Beasley, then we will pass on OJ, and he will fall to the Sonics so they can complete thier deal BUT the wolves are planning on taking OJ so they hold the key's to that Sonics Heat trade....

All in all expect the pick to be OJ, or Love(IF he falls pass 5)
Don't expect Beasley to be a Wolve for long if he's selected...

The only thing I've heard about their 2nd rounders is that if they don't take a big with their 1st pick then they might trade back into the late 1st to grab a big."

I really, really like Beasley's personality and think he would be such a fun person/athlete to watch develop down here in South Florida. Would make the Heat such a "lovable" team with him and Wade.

Fingers will remain cross until tomorrow night hoping we don't pass on him, but if we do...in Riley I trust, I guess.

[Flix360]

im sweating hard really.

what the pak are you doin pat riley, just keep beasley i beg u no need for other trades.

pls dont make nonsense....

[travis minor]

im **** bricks
and im not sure why

[SA37]

im **** bricks
and im not sure why

It's because the possibility of Riley possibly trading away or passing on perhaps the most talented player in the entire draft is seemingly very real.

[Smack86]

by the end of the night everybody on here will be on their knees praising Pat Riley. i just got that feeling. Riles is gonna do something marvelous tonight.
