We're stuck with Speedy.

We're stuck with Speedy.

I see this often, but as long as the Hawks are taking back an equally poor contract (Wallace surely qualifies here), Speedy is tradeable.

[Harry10]

i think every team would happily accept, except for ORL they might or might not want Dwight/Wallace... if ORL declines, i think TOR is under the cap and they might want Bosh/Wallace.

I don't think Orlando would mind because they are only giving up a second round pick. A second round pick to a team like Orlando is pretty insignificant.

The only problem with the trade is Cleveland is giving up 2 big men for 2 point guards. Cleveland already has 3 point guards... (Gibson, West, Damon Jones...). Cleveland would need a PF in the trade.

You have no clue how the salary cap works do you?

Problem #1: Orlando has no cap room, let alone enough for Wallace.

Problem #2: Washington has to renounce Gilbert Arenas to have cap room.

There is no way that Cleveland does this crap. The Cavs are very happy with Delonte.

That's what I thought
