O'Neal isn't good value for Brand, the Clippers aren't going to shell out 23 million for a player that has been regressing like he has over the last couple of seasons.

I thought my first post said it all. I do not think the pacers have anything we want if it includes trading away anybody with the initials EB.

I wasn't referring to that proposed trade specifically, but nearly all of the trades mentioned on this thread and others. The "crappy player" reference suggests that in most of these trade scenarios, you have a player of slightly less value than EB and a fil-in guy, i.e. the "crappy player." And if you wanna talk about Granger, I like him-- but involving him as the 2nd man in a trade for Elton Brand does indeed make him the crappy player. Every trade has to have one.

Just say no to JO. He's overrated, he's injury prone and he's on the decline. Granger on the other hand is a good player but not for Brand. A trade with Indy doesn't sit well with me...they really don't have anybody that I would be interested in.

Hey, Werd! I wasn't sure where to jump ship to so I came here. I know Stang, MG and you are on Scout.

You guys need to keep Brand. Without Brand you guys will lose your teams' identity.

I would only move Mags at this point for some back court help. Thorton will thrive under a full season with starting minutes.

BTW, how is Livingston doing? Hope he bounces back well.
Looking forward to the 28-29 season.

We do need to keep Brand, I will be heat broken if we move him.
