I'm baaaaaack!!!

I'm sure boogies will not like it, but I just wanted to announce my Gasol trade and coming back to the board in the same thread.

My take on the season so far...

Rudy will be a star in this league as soon as Miller and Gasol are off of this team.

Gasol and Miller need to be gone for this team to get better. Mike Miller is the best player that refuses to shoot most nights!

To the trade...

Grizz Trade:

Gasol
Warrick

Receive:
Zach Randolph
Joakim Noah
Adrian Griffin
Knicks 2008 1st

Knicks Trade:
Zach Randolph
Mardy Collins
2008 1st

Knicks Receive:

Chris Duhon
Thabo Sefolosha
Andres Nocioni
Damon Stoudamire

Bulls Trade:
Joakim Noah
Chris Duhon
Thabo Sefolosha
Andres Nocioni
Adrian Griffin

Bulls Receive:

Pau Gasol
Hakim Warrick
Mardy Collins


Am I crazy??? Some of you think I'm crazy for being willing to swap Gasol for Randolph, but the Grizz pick up Noah and a 1st that should be in the Lottery for two players that absolutely can't play defense.

I don't think it would hurt to ask Chicago for a #1 also.

Between Randolph and Rudy Gay Memphis would need two balls :D

The trade really isn't balanced since New York is receiving two additional point guards. Randolph does board pretty well which the Grizz are in desperate need of but more importantly we need a defensive wing who is capable of starting. If Sefolosha could come this way as well that would be great.

New York would not trade Randolph in essence to pick up Nocioni. They still have Malik Rose on there roster he is not getting any time. New York would however consider Ben Wallace coming there way since he would provide Defense and toughness which they are currently lacking.

Really? I would say transparent trolling is the worst thing - but the bad trades are awful, too. Take a look at the Gasol trade thread and 90% of the trade board threads.

btw... the reason I thought the knicks would say yes, is because it merely breaks up Zach's contract into pieces that are MUCH easier to trade.

Great, we'd have Gay, Head and BJ of the same team.

The jokes would be endless.
