Jarrod N Rudolph ‏ @MisterRudolph

So many stories here in Orlando; hard to know what to believe. But it seems the Magic are very confident they'll land a big fish.

I'm kind of getting sick and tired of hearing "Well, Dwight doesn't want to play for Team A or Dwight will not go for Team B - Correct me if i am wrong, but why is it Dwight's decision on where he is traded to?

Am I missing something here?

Dwight is the only one who brought this crap on. He requested in December that he wanted to be traded. It should not be up to his discretion on where he is traded.

If I am working for a company and they say that I have to be transferred to a different city, I go - No if's and's or but's about it.

Is Harden untouchable? Would a package of Ryan and Jrich entice the Thunder to part with him? I know the Thunder would love to stretch the floor for Westbrook and Durant.

the big fish is probably dwight for rondo

i'd kill to have rondo and dwight on this team tho, for reals.
aol4532 on bill russell
I think if you put McGee back then, he would get those blocks just as easily as Russell did. Russell's athleticism was well ahead of the players of his time, and that's about it.

My thought on this:
Harden is DEFINITELY more valuable than Ryan. But, I'm assuming other teams are going to make better offers for him this offseason. Ryan would definitely add some depth in their starting lineup. Could help relieve some pressure while spreading the defense. All this being said, there's no way they trade Harden.

Deng, Noah, Watson, & Asik for Dwight/Turk/Duhon

Then flip Asik & Jameer for Ellis

Ellis
JRich
Deng
Anderson
Noah

why do u act like gs would trade ellis for asik and jameer?

No one knows what GS would do, but a Center is their biggest need right now. No one knows what any team would trade and in 99% of fan-suggested trade scenarios, we always overrate players' value. Until something happens, it's fun to speculate and talk about what-ifs.

No way in hell Warriors take on Asik (a 10mpg backup) and Meer (another PG!!!) for Ellis. They want a true starting Center and/or a true starting SG.
