Since the Sonics are looking to deal Wally...

I'm not sure I would, but what the heck. I have a hard time believing Seattle would.

[WEFFPIM]

The Sonics are trying to rebuild not become the Milwaukee Bucks

[carmelbrownqueen]

Terrible trade..

I have no problem doing a with Seattle, but I under no circumstances want to be the team trading Michael Redd for a guy like Wally. If you guys don't want to pay Redd for what he does.. then why would we even consider trading for Wally for what he does?

I don't mind the idea of trading for Wilcox or Collison, maybe even Wilkins but that's about it

[bango_the_buck]

I'm not sure I would, but what the heck. I have a hard time believing Seattle would.

If you're not sure you would (from a Bucks fan perspective), and have a hard time believing Seattle would, why propose it?

[ReasonablySober]

I wonder if they'd be willing to take on Redd. I doubt it.

Milwaukee trades
Michael Redd
Dan Gadzuric

Seattle trades
Wally Szczerbiak
Nick Collison
Robert Swift

I'd be all over that one.

I'm still in the "ship out Mo, get a big PG with a defensive mind, and drafted a SF" boat...dependent on Redd playing inside-out basketball

Why? Thats almost dumber than the original trade proposed.

[ReasonablySober]

Swift expires at the end of the season. Collison was just signed to a very cap-friendly deal and is rewarding Seattle 9/9 in only 27 minutes a game. Next year you have one of the top expiring contracts in the NBA, and having one of those is like having a winning lotto ticket.

[MajorDad]

let's think people !!!

Why did Seattle trade Allen and allow Lewis to leave? it's because the want Durant to take 30 shots a game in his prime and be a taller kobe. they do not want somebody like redd who would eat into Durant's amount of shots.

Last year I pointed out if the Bucks got lucky and were able to draft Durant, that Durant and redd would not be able to co-exist on the same team. Obviously Seattle knew this and got rid of their shooting guns.

The same thing is going to happen with this year's draft. if the Bucks get lucky and get a top 5 pick, it's going to obvious the bucks will draft a guard who will not be able to co-exist with redd or Mo. I just can't see Mayo or gordon or Beaseley on the court at the same time wit h redd. and rose and Mo would not co-exist either. nad Mo will not be happy as a 6th man with rose starting.

I'd like to add Wally, Collison and Wilcox. I'd love to unload Simmons, CV Gadz and mason. But looking at Seattle's stated needs, they've bee n looking for a PG all year as Ridenear just isn't the same guy he once was, and their coach isn't that thrilled with watson. I would think Wally for J williams or bibby is a more likely trade. if I was the Bucks I'd try to trade Simmons for Wally.

[Neapolitan Buck]

Szczerbiak has 25M left on his 2-year contract...

[paulpressey25]

I can see the Seattle owner maybe thinking about taking on Michael Redd assuming they move next year (?) to OKC.

OKC is a straight laced Bible belt community....small town....big on community involvement......Redd would do well there personally and on the court assuming that Durant moves to SF or PF.....

Seattle has plenty of good options for us to take back in return along with Wally....as noted Collison and/or Watson would be good here....

[Max Green]

Wally Z?? This is a terrible trade for the Bucks.

Our lottery ticket was over priced Bobby Simmons. No one comes to Milwaukee unless you way over pay. Not saying who comes here is talented anyway. Bucks are the Brewers. Farm draft picks then deal them later.

I should have clarified.

I don't anticipate attracting a legit star to Milwaukee through free agency.

However, I could envision us trading for one. When I said having a large expiring was like holding a winning lotto ticket, I mean that it can mean bringing back high priced talent in trade.

[showtimesam]

Let's just sign Ivey to a one year 10 million dollar deal in the offseason and use that as our lottery ticket?

Is that something that a team can do?

If it is, thats the kind of creativity the bucks should use to bring some stars over

Sign any player to a one year big money deal and trade them away for a superstar that team wants to trade for cap space.

[1377]

Show Time Sam,

That is an aweseome idea if it worked. Does anyone know if that would be allowed?

[LUKE23]

One of the worst trade threads I've ever seen on this board. Lets just give our guys away for NBDL players while we're at it.
