It won't get old if as long as you can keep adding names to it:

Gay, Mayo, Love, Sessions
Landry, Love, Sessions
Gay, Darko, Love, Sessions
Felt on, Gay, Love, Sessions
Jack, Harden, Gay, Love, Sessions
Miller/Foster/Boozer Love Sessions
Gay, Fisher, Love, Sessions
Gay, Duncan, Love, Sessions
Blount Love Sessions (sounds painful)
Gooden Gay Love

The possibilities are endless....


Obviously, this is Kahn's master plan.

I couldn't help but giggle like a 10 year old everytime Rudy made a shot when they came to the Target Center. The announcer would give a lethargic, and slightly disgruntled "gay."

:lol: I was thinking the same thing.

Sadly this, the Asian bowl-flipping lady, and Air Crunch have been the highlights for me this year.

Thad Young and Gerald Wallace are by far the two best players being mentioned. If we got them it would transform this organization. But I doubt 6ers will trade Thad and Gerald is playing like a straight up superstar this year.

He's an unbelievable talent, but I really question his maturity, and whether or not he is a championship type player.


I love the irony in this post from JR Rider, probably the most talented athlete in Twolves history but of course he is also the most immature talent.

Agree on Thad. Not that I can predict Charlotte's actions, considering their decisions lately, but Wallace might be available. He's be rebounding like a beast this year and playing good D, but his offensive output and efficiencies are pretty mediocre this year.

OJ Mayo is one of the best defenders in the league, hes a two way player and hes a great passer and playmaker.

Is Wallace the type of player that we really need on a team that has Love and Al? Is his outside shooting good enough?

Thad seems to excel at the 4. I think the 76ers may look to start him there and move Brand to the bench. At the 3, he is still very good, but not playing to his maximum potential.

Wallace is clearly the Bobs best player and on a friendly deal. I don't see them moving him unless they are going to blow up their whole team.

I dont really worry about his outside shooting, because i dont see adding Wallace as getting the final piece to the puzzle. I would still like to add a scoring machine at the 2. Wallace's ability to crash the boards and slash to the basket gets open looks for Love, Big Al, Flynn, but i would also like to see him next to Ellington. Ellington is a very solid prospect, and if he can hit the 3 with consistency and play solid D we might be on to something.

[rant:]Funk not that it's your fault, but what is up with everyone obsessing about outside shooting!

This team has so many needs we don't JUST have to address outside shooting. How about grabbing an athlete who can compete on the wing? Would that really be so bad? I mean seriously let's get over this "we need to address shooting and before we do that...no moves can be made to make us better!"

Gerald Wallace would bring so much to this team it is just unreal. He is playing like a superstar. He scored 29 points today and he had two 31 point outings in a row at the end of Nov. for those worried about his offense.

I'm not worried about his ability to get points. The Wolves just rely on too many guys trying to score inside the paint. They desperately need someone who can consistently hit an outside jumper. I haven't seen enough of Wallace to know if he can. Flynn may get there, but he is more of a slasher. That leaves us with Ellington and whoever we draft. Ellington isn't ready yet. I would just like more options.

Wallace is a beast on the boards, but that's one area that the Wolves don't really need help with. I think they are currently ranked 3rd?

Anthony Randolph
Corey Maggette
Warriors 1st (Top 5 protected)
Devean George

for

Ryan Gomes
Corey Brewer
Mark Blount
Charlotte or Utah 1st

Anyone?

Warriors dumb a lot of salary with Maggette's ugly contract, get a 1st and two rotation guys in Gomes and Brewer. They can even save more money by waiving Gomes in the offseason if they don't like him.

We get an athletic PF who can provide some shot blocking and defense off the bench what we desperately need (maybe he can even start at the 3). On top of that we add a 1st that could possibly net us Xavier Henry or Cole Aldrich around draft time.
That said I would only do this trade if it was pretty clear we are going to get the pick this season. Next season they might be a lot improved.
Taking on Maggette hurts a lot if you think we can add a stud in FA but I don't think so. Don't know how Warriors fans would feel about that but we could also throw in rights to Pekovic or something. I don't think he is going to come over anyway.

Flynn/Sessions
#our first
#warriors first
Love/Randolph
Jefferson/Hollins

Probably a deadline deal. It is too early to gamble on picks 1/4 into the season ;)

Maggette is a non-starter for me.
