The only way we trade iggy on draft night is if we get one of the top 5 guys in return. Therefore it would have to be a trade with either minnesota, nj, or sactown. I doubt new jersey would take his salary on after they have tried hard to get the cap space for the impending free agency of a lifetime. Sactown with the 5th pick has reports coming out that they now like cousins so I doubt they would trade the 5 when its likely he will still be on the board when they pick. Minnesota is the only one i could see trading out of the top 5. Minny seems to want a swing unless they can get a Big Al out on a seperate deal. I could see Minny trading for Iguoudala only if NJ takes Wes, (which is now unlikely with the reports coming out the they are taking Favors for sure), and if they cant trade Al Jefferson.

So basically the odds of a trade with Iggy for a top 5 pick are slim to none.

Pretty much agree unless their interest in W. Johnson was a smokescreen as well. Maybe at the end of the day, they like a more proven 26 year old Iguodala over a 22 or 23 year old, unproven W. Johnson. Doubtful, but who knows? Meanwhile, I could easily see Collins surprising and taking Johnson at #4 and making him the SF next to Turner. He seemed to love the guy and Johnson is a good outside shooter.

You can't be serious...

To clear up any confusion, Brett Favre is not pronounced "fah-vray"

I don't pronounce it that way, it is incredibly annoying.

But I always pronounce names the way that sounds right to me.

Yup he was putting the finishing touches on his Iggy trade.

Ive just realized that the top 5 players in this draft would fit pretty perfectly in a starting lineup.

Just imagine
Wall- creative distributor
Turner- Scoring
Johnson- Great Shooter, glue guy
Favors- Athletic rebounder, defense
Cousins- Offensive post presence

yeah to move Iggy in a deal with a top 5 teams, I think NJ is the best suitor, only because they still have some guys on the books who are taking away from their cap space... so moving them (Yi/Hump/Dooling) for Iggy, doesn't take away from their cap space so much (alittle with dooling) but it gives them a much better player in the process.
Harris
Joe Johnson
Iggy
Boozer
Lopez
that would be a pretty competitive line up.

It's actually Belgium... He was born over there and they all called him that. I hate it but I always call him that.

I know everything there is to know about this kid because he toyed with the idea of going to Kentucky last year... I've been bitter ever since.
