Hey, guys. (makes peace symbol)

I was told that memphis and MN are still talking. I am trying to think what.

Would you do #3 for Mike Miller+#5?

I am just trying to think of situations. I know Minnesota said they would trade down "if" they could get a current young starter and one of the players they want. I know when they listed their needs they said they need a big banger next to Al and a 2/3 with scoring and range. Mike Miller+5th (love) seems like a deal that could be likely.

I am just trying to gauge value.

If the Grizz did that, I think it would be to try to trade Mayo for Beasley??? I can't imagine that the Grizz really want Mayo.

Maybe MMiller, Warrick, #5 for the Walker, McCants, #3 then #3/Marc Gasol for #2???

This would leave the Grizz with
Conley
McCants
Gay
Beasley
Milicic

AND CAP ROOM NEXT YEAR!!! which is all I freaking hear about anymore!!!

Reportedly Dumars turned down #5 + filler for Stuckey...

A Conley-Stuckey-Gay 1-2-3 combo would be unreal in a few years.

Pretty decent offer from the Grizzlies IMO.... Pistons could certainly uses a big rebounding C but I guess they aren't high enough on Lopez, or are just too high on Stuckey.

Can you cite a source for that one?
