Lewis for Arenas+filler? Carter + pieces for Iggy/Jrich/Roy?

Carter for Arenas straight up is ridiculous, I'm sure Otis wouldn't go for that (Carter is better on both sides of the court and is coming off the books this season). OPP says that it might be Carter+Lewis to the Wiz... for most of their team then?

Thanks

To summarize this thread: After losing 5 of 6, fans will wish for (and some times, teams will do) crazy things that they will soon regret.

Also wouldn't be surprised if Shard completely faded away. But I have faith he'll realize he's stuck with the Wiz and may eventually return to a 20+ scorer if Flip uses him correctly.

That's the only time I would welcome Arenas on this team.

Oh man, I would **** my pants if this deal went down, wishful thinking, but cool to think about nonetheless

http://games.espn.go.com/nba/tradeMachi ... Id=2buwdfw

Magic:
Arenas/Billips/Williams
Redick/Pietrus
Anthony/Richardson
Bass/Anderson/Allen
Howard/Gortat/Orton

Nuggets:
Nelson/Lawson/Carter
Afflalo/Smith
Lewis/Forbes/Balkman
Williams/Harrington/Martin
Hilario/C.Anderson/Ely

Wizards:
Wall/Hinrich/Duhon
Carter/Young/Gee
J.Howard/Thornton/Martin
Blatche/Jianlian/Booker/Seraphin
McGee/Armstrong/Ndiaye

That would be :droop:

if it happened

I don't think Shard is done at all. He has agreed to take a much smaller role since we got Vince and Jameer came back. He still very capable IMO.

With all the "Otis Smith's relationship with Arenas".... If Otis actually pulls the trigger on Carter for Arenas straight up, and not trading away Rashard, then he must have some kind of sexual relationship with Gilbert.

Yup, Hughes won the welterweight belt from Newton that night. Newton was coming off a win vs Miletich (Hughes friend and trainer)

What is the latest in the Arenas situation?

He arrived at RDV at 2:30 am. At 2:37 a call was dispatched to the local police, witnesses(BQR and Alex Kennedy) reported Arenas pulled a gun on George Galante, after Galante asked for an autograph.

New one is fully operational and has a sweet escalator, and they're tearing down the old one next year.

Im down for the count. Otis is probably passed out by now as well. Hopefully tommorow we get some good news (a different trade).

MickaelPietrus · Post #719 » by **MickaelPietrus** » Sat Dec 18, 2010 7:45 am

Wiz have the Heat at home tomorrow night. If Gilbert is a DNP, then we've got him.

Perhaps what they share is the same mental illness. The only way to be as crazy as Arenas is to be willing to trade for him.
