With less than hour before trade deadline, source says GS in advanced discussions about dealing Stephen Jackson to SA for Richard Jefferson.

I really don't know why they would do this.

Maybe you guys plan to tank incredibly hard to assure yourselves a great chance in the top 3. Winning last night was a bad start.

We've tried that before, remember? We were supposed to get John Wall. That didn't happen either.

You still got a top 3 pick though, right? So as long as you do that again, you keep the pick, and all you really gave up was Okur and Williams.

Tanking has to be the plan. No way in hell is Gerald Wallace worth even top 10 draft pick.

JA Adande said it best. That next year we have better expiring chips for trades, cap space lining up if we want to, and 2 more shots at the playoff title run.

And you have to remember, expiring deals and cap space are better with no action in the FO. JJ and J Rich and Turk become cheaper expiring deals to waive/re-sign. And the team chemistry is at an all time high and even more importantly, that pressure that these are Dwights last Magic playoffs is fully gone now. All the teams gearing up for Dwight cannot really do it anymore. It's all now in Orlando's court to get Dwight a revamped team for next year/offseason.
