OT: Milwaukee to shake it up? Land Randolph?

N1QUE24 · Post #1 » by **N1QUE24** » Thu Jan 10, 2008 6:01 pm

It's on the front page.. I wonder who they'd give up for a Redd + Randolph combo.. possibly Charlie V, Bell and Gadzuric?

Sounds like a desperate move if done.

We aren't even half way through the year and Randolph's already on the market.

lol Isiah.

I can't possibly see Randolph working well in Milwaukee, especially with Redd there who has increasingly shown a need to have the ball in his hands to play effectively. Not to mention that they couldn't well start Zach over Bogut or Yi.

I'm inclined to believe Canzano's making stuff up.

Zeke still thinks Curry is teh franchise player, and Zach is the reason why he's sucking so bad - hence ship his ass out

Man now that I look back, if I knew the Knicks were going to be such a soap opera-esque this year, I would have gotten couple thousand bucks richer by making a website which enlists the daily tidbits that comes out of the big apple

So if Randolph is available.. then I'm inclined to believe that Milwaukee has been shopping Charlie V frantically.. maybe he can be had for cheap?

If Randolph is a bad influence on the Knicks, who the heck thinks he'll be a good fit anywhere else?

All GMs should steer clear of this guy.

How about this one -- Zach Randolph for Ben Wallace, straight up.

How can that be when the Knicks sucked last year as well without Randolph.

Only way this trade happens is if both Gadzuric and Simmons are going the other way. That would mean Villanueva would likely have to be included as well.

Villanueva, Mason and Gadzuric works.

The last thing Milwaukee needs is yet another PF that loves to shoot the ball but has questionable effort and can't defend a pylon.

And Isiah isn't going to take a Bobby Simmons/Charlie V type package which would be admitting that the Portland trade was a mistake.

I think this just a throwaway comment from some writer in Portland who doesn't have a clue.

$63 million over 4 years ending in 2011. $63 million....!

And since there was no market for Zach last summer after he put up career numbers of 23/10. I don't see how that part has improved with his NY mail-in job.

Since Isiah is involved...I assume the Bucks think they can get a 1st rounder or two out of a deal with the Knicks. :lol:

NASTY!!! (and recent - so u can see he hasn't lost it)

Charlie V is one of my favorite players in the NBA still... though i think his "potential ceiling" has lowered since he left Toronto, he's still the same promising prospect I saw coming out of UConn... a jack of all-trades, well rounded offensive player and a positive player when on the court... the only problem is he NEEDS to be on the court a lot to affect the game, and with Toronto's deep team, he'd have trouble earning a starting spot or heavy minutes. I also doubt that Mil is dying to trade with BC again.

With Bogut and Yi,
Who I would imagine are the future of the Bucks.

Why oh why would you bring in Randolph?

lol I wonder how Marbury feels now.

omeloon · Post #18 » by **omeloon** » Thu Jan 10, 2008 8:10 pm

I wouldn't at all be surprised if Milwaukee tried moving Bobby Simmons and Charlie V for Randolph. They might want to move Yi over to SF, which could work decently, I guess. Defensively they will suck, but on offense they'll have a lot of weapons. Simmons and Charlie V aren't contributing that much, and they could get a legit starting PF.

Isaiah wouldn't exactly be admitting a mistake either. He traded Francis and Frye. That was a pretty crappy package to begin with. I'm sure he would have traded them for Bobby, Charlie, and Fred Jones if it was offered.

Who DIDN'T see this one coming?

Geez, let's stick these two guys in the post together. They both NEED the ball to be effective. Great idea there. At least Randolph is a beast on the boards.
Eddy Curry is the guy that needs to go, NOT Randolph.

This whole Curry/Randolph thing is like the low post version of the Marbury/Francis backcourt. Sheer stupidity.

you know....
that may not be a half-bad idea.

but you wonder if that would sink the Bulls' ship even faster or pick them back up
