Klay thompson looks like an above average 2 guard in this league and they need to start developing him. Please Otis just go after monta we need a legit 2nd guy

I don't think they want a very late 2nd rounder. maybe throw in JJ and they would consider it. but Jackson sounds like he really likes Monta so they might not give him up even if we take Biedrins.[/quote]
Hes not gonna say he doesn't like one of his star players..but anyway if we can we need to try and keep jj or Anderson cause we can't lose all scoring off the bench and I'm fine with biedrins as long as we can get monta[/quote]

+1!

Monta the truth! The kid gets to the rim at will! Something the rest of our players are scared to do.

monta and bied are on their way. I feel it, it only makes sense. When they do, this team will be unstoppable.

Wishful thinking. But who would we trade for them and in your opinion, when do you see this happening? During the season? Within the next few days?

We need someone who can create his own shot, be a play-maker/create for others, attack the basket, and push the ball up the floor (and find Dwight early, deep in the paint, sealing his man off)

Monta definitely fits that bill.

I hope Otis works the phone all day tomorrow trying to get that trade done.

I wish Anderson was on a larger contract cause I think we could trade him right now for OJ Mayo. Grizzlies desperate for a PF.

That's too late for us. We need him now if we want to even attempt to keep Dwight.

I"'m honestly starting to lose faith and question if we can actually land anyone. Our GM is Otis though so anything can happen at anytime.

So no one here wants OJ Mayo? Rather reach for a probably not happening Monta trade?

http://aol.sportingnews.com/nba/story/2 ... for-season

They have no backup center or backup PF. This is the type of situation that brings trades up. GMs don't just trade people for no reason, it's based off money, chemistry, talent, need, and injuries. Lopsided trades usually occur due to injuries and chemistry. Quick fix trades.

Why the hell would you trade Ryan Anderson for OJ Mayo?
