Nice contradiction. First you say it is horrible for the Wolves, then you say you haven't been paying attention to Derrick Williams but you know by now paying attention to him he shos no promise at all?? WTF?

Beasley is borderline garbage
Barea (a one hit wonder last year, is really a nobody)

Williams (like you said shows no promise, your words)

for a 2 Time Champions, top 5 PF in the league whos game doesn't rely on athleticism is a bad deal for Minnesota. Dude they get the best end of the deal here. As for Pau's contract, so **** what, its money you need to spend to contend. If they don't want to contend then they can keep being mediocre. A team with Love, Rubio, Gasol is a contender. Period.

However, I agree I don't like this deal either for the Lakers. I would rather, we keep Bynum, Gasol and use our TPE for a PG.

We'll give you Farmar for the TPE. Throw in a first-round draft pick with heavy protection and/or an expiring if you want.

Minny is set at the 4 and 5 with Love and Pekovic. Pek is putting up 12/7/2blk in 24 Min.

Why the heck do they need Gasol?

Get Houston involved instead!

Throw Wes to Orlando/Houston but either way Reddick comes to Minny

Gasol gets flipped for Scola, Kmart, and TWill



Then Minny becomes:

Rubio / Ridnour
Kmart /
JJ / Twill
Love / Scola
Pekovic / Darko

KMart and JJ add legitimacy to Minny's 2 and 3 spots. They finally legit consistent scoring.

Scola is the wild card and makes this trade very worthwhile for the Wolves.

First, he allows the Wolves to rest Love without fear of losing offense. Scola can score and is putting up 16/6 on 49% FG in 30 minutes. That's very solid.

Adelman can play Love/Pek or Scola/Pek or Love/Scola. Scola takes the pressure off Love to defend bc he is a great defender. Just gives the Wolves tons of versatility.

What do you guys think?

To me the Magic need a little more. If the Magic were about to do this deal I think the Nets would offer Lopez and there lottery pick. Maybe even Marshon Brooks or Kris Humphries. To me this deal sounds like a leverage deal to get something from NJ. I don't think Dwight really wants to play for the Lakers. I think he wants to go Brooklyn. Only way I think he be interested in La La Land is if Deron can come too.

This is Melodrama 2.0, to me.

Nets had him, but he clearly wanted to play for the Knicks in the garden. Seems like the same thing is happening now, to me at least, and this "rumor" is just silly.

Why do the Magic need more?

DWill is the #2 pick, he is putting up 7/5 in 17 minutes.

Compared that to FOURTH year, currently injured Lopez, putting up 12/3 in 25 minutes.

DWill is LAST year's #2 pick and has far more potential than Brook Lopez let alone NJ Nets draft pick. You think that's gonna be high with Dwight and Deron playing together? They will make the playoffs in the weak East.

Then you throw in Bynum who trumps any player the Nets have to offer. Behind Dwight he is the 2nd best C.

Bynum + DWill >>>>>>>> Brook Lopez + 11-15th pick in 2012 draft

Sorry Magic get alot in this deal. Bynum by himself is a better offer than Lopez and a pick. Add in DWill its a no brainer

Lakers trade Dwight for LeBron so Kobe can get his wish.
Lakers are 22-3 in OT last 6 seasons:Kobe best OT closer!

I also think even if LA gets Barea they still will sign Arenas

Arenas/Barea/Fisher

is sure better than

Fisher/Blake

Thats a really cool story bro but idk why you assume i said "HE HAS SHOWN KNOW PROMISE" when i really said what is bold above.

BTW by me saying I have not paid any attention to the wolves is the clear reason why i disagree with them not trading Beasley/a first year lottery rookie. I am not aware if there have been any problems with him and the team.

I still don't see why Dwight just doesn't go to OKC during free agency.

They need a threat down low anyway.......

This trade is so bad for Minnesota that if it actually happened Kahn should be fired immediately.
