Brewer weighs 185 lbs. I'm more of a PF than he is, and I'm an unathletic 6 footer.

As for the trade, I really don't like it for either team. Miami isn't going to give up a 30 ppg scorer 2 years removed from leading them to a championship.

And Minnesota isn't going to trade away Jefferson, the face of the Garnett trade, just so they can get significantly older and even worse.

Edit: The more I look at it, the less I like this trade. I'm not trying to be mean, but you actually managed to make both teams worse with this one. Frankly, I'm a little amazed.

Jefferson isnt going anywhere. Stupid trade for the Wolves. Very very very bad trade.

We already have a future miami pick. Marions expring eould be nice but not if the cost is the 3rd pick

Brewer is a SG/SF and Doleac is an unrestricted FA. Even if this trade were to fall through the lineup would look like this

Foye Telfair (second round pick)
Wade McCants Buckner
Wright Snyder Walker
Marion Gomes
Richard (second round pick) Smith Madsen

We would be undersized, and I don't even think that trade would work

Wouldn't trade Jefferson for Wade straight up, and not interested in 2010+ picks. Not interested in Marion either he is on the downslope and a team cancer. We'll keep Mayo and your draft picks thank you, you can have blount and ricky.

The Future:

Mayo/Foye/Brewer/Jefferson/Your 2009 1st/
Telfair/McCants/Gomes/Your 2008 2nd/Our 2008 2nd

Wade > Jefferson

I just don't like the injuries Wade has had and his style of play increases the risk of injury, so I wouldn't do this deal.

First, I give you kudos for thinking outside the box, and for offering a pretty fair trade in value, However, I think both teams are probably pretty happy with who they have now.

I have heard several MIA fans say that Wade is the third most valuable player in the league, behind LeBron and Dwight Howard. However, I have heard the exact same line from about a half dozen other fans, that their guy is the third most valuable (Amare, Oden, Chris Paul, Kobe, etc.). If MIA values Wade like that, he will have the most value for the MIA fans.

For MIN, this makes them older, and removes their only legitimate size. Marion wouldn't stay in MIN beyond the year. I think they have to say no as well.

when I opened it up I thought it was going to be something like wade for foye, #3 and your picked return. I would have then just said wade for foye and #3, but dang...I am speechless now.

(walker Exp or FA) - Hardin (hopefully)
Jefferson - Gomes
Brewer - Gomes - Jaric
Wade - McCants - Jaric
Telfair - Wade - Jaric

The Minnesota Heat is a bit of an oxymoron, yes?
