I just voted for Kurt Thomas. Yesterday I predicted the subprime mortgage crisis. I'm on a roll here.

You're right. I never dreamed they'd get a 1st rounder for Thomas.

That was just pure negotiating right there........tin rimmed Presti is working some magic.....now he needs to show he can do a little more with those picks after he gets them.

It will be time for him to show off a little more wheeling and dealing prowess come draft day and then he's gotta show us some talent eval skills to impress. Anyways, nice little something to take all of our minds off the Franchise Rustlers for a day. :clap:

Hm.. maybe we can do something like Barry, Jelly + 2nd round to phoenix for something? I read somewhere they've always had interest in Jelly ever since he came in the league, but i don't know, i'm not very good with trades with all the salaries and everything

PHX is interested in both Barry and Gelabale. We would probably have to buy Barry out so he could sign with PHX.

I think we would have a better shot trading Wally to the Cavs instead of Barry. We could get more in return IMO.

What do the Cavs have that you would want?

Some cap relief and, hopefully, a 1st round pick.

Isn't their biggest expiring Ira Newble? and other than him there isn't much else for expirings

Chad Ford mention Wally to Cle

We all keep hearing that they've also been talking to Seattle about Wally Szczerbiak too.

Thats a big contract to find matching for
What would the deal be?

Most likely the players(Newble, Snow or Marshall) nwsports and myself already talked about in this thread.
The Cavs don't really have all that much, that would interest teams.

Yeah Ric Bucher just said Marshall and Newble

That's all anyone on ESPN has said about the Sonics

Chad Ford is reporting that the Cavs are pushing hard for Ben Wallace and Wally Szczerbiak.

Wow ... too close to call right now. Apparently, one of the reasons the Cavs are pushing that Hughes be in the Bulls deal is that they want their expiring contracts and Donyell Marshall to get ahold of Wally Szczerbiak. So the Cavs would add Wally, Ben Wallace, Joe Smith and Duhon. Could it be three new starters around LeBron?

Ric Bucher said Delonte and Damien for Najera.

I liked the one, were we got their 1st, better, but it looks like Presti is in save $ mode, if that Wally to Cleveland rumor has any legs as well.

BTW: Should be a fun game today in Portland, with about 7 or 8 guys available. :roll:

I don't really know what their GM thinks as well, but i've read that Wally will go there.

This isn't all going down like I thought it would last night ...but, it does look like we're going to be bringing Wally in for sure. and that WAS the local kid I was talking about that I thought we'd be bringing back home ...he had expressed an interest in coming hoime to finish out his career, and don't be surprised if he ends up staying on with the Cavs after his contract expires, at a far lower slary scale of course.
