Re: i've lost my mind
Just for the fun of it...
This is a push IMO. Ray is vital to our team, but we do get younger with those two and Brewer is a future star.
This hurts both teams. TA is going to come around and the sixth man of the year eventually. Mike James is overrated, and just not that good. Plus no one wants Scal.
Giving up too much of what little big man depth we have to get just one back. Plus Pruitt's my binky so we automatically cannot trade him.

I'll play.
First deal: I'll say no for same reasons as Gogo just mentioned. Agree fully.
Second deal: No. Not that desperate to unload Scal. James is an underrated clutch player and probably better than Eddie House, but I don't want him at the expense of Tony Allen. Still think Allen is a better back up point by a hair, plus he's developing as a player. James is a final product.
Third deal: Nyet. I don't know jack about Swift, barely seen him play. Have heard great things, but haven't seen it. Yet. I've seen more of Pruitt and Powe and I'd like these guys around for insurance.

Ray Allen can't handle the ball, period. When his jumper is not falling, he is as useless as Scalabrinie (or whatever his name is).

Okay pal that was before the game. So GFY, I'm one of the ones telling everyone to stop bitching like I do after every loss.

We would be nuts not to do the utah trade , but there is no way both of those guys would be available. Heck I would do it for one or the other. AK helps on the ball handling front because teams can't afford to put a small guy on him to pressure. Both clearly have at least 4 years left, Ray-who knows how long-but the list of nagging type injuries he has had has not been encouraging. Also we would probably become the greatest defensive team to ever play basket ball. I seriously think teams would struggle to score 60 points on us on most nights.
