I'm starting to suspect that GS doesn't want J-Rich back... at least that's the impression I got from RealGM user/knowledgeable Warriors fan "NW"

I also think they want an established big... not Orton... that's why they are aiming their sights at Bogut

I hope they change their minds and go for our deal instead (Orl/GS/NOH)

You'll get mixed reactions on J. Rich...
Absolutely right about the Orton thing...
Bogut is also a pretty big if in some peoples opinions, we already have one injured gimp, it would suck to have two...

What did you guys think about "vinageras'" trade idea he posted?

I... doubt it ... but I won't lose hope. I can't wait for Thursday to come and go.

I really like this especially us keeping Anderson and getting a backup c with Monta

We'd have 20 mil of salaries incoming with Ellis/SJax. Turk is almost certainly going to be moved. Will the bucks take Turk if we give them a 1st rounder and Orton? Perhaps Kwame's expiring?

ironic how houston jumps in and uses clee against us. we can't beat that deal imo.

I think the Magic and Warriors together can beat that.

Bucks are now in the playoffs. I can see their desire for Dalembert, or any center who can suit up, and possibly some veterans.

That's pretty good... maybe throw a draft pick Milwaukee's way if that package is a little weak for them. I know I said in my previous post that GS might not want J-Rich back... but in your deal you net them Bogut, so that instantly makes the deal seem attractive to them. I like it.

Orl's 1st would go to Milwaukee to fill them up, while GS might get a 2nd rounder there also. We keep Ryno:

PG. Ellis/Nelson/Duhon/Ish
SG. Q-Rich/Ellis/Wafer/Liggins
SF. Jackson/Q-Rich/Clark/Liggins
PF. Anderson/Davis/Clark/Harper
C. Howard/Biedrins

I still don't know what IT IS exactly the Warriors want.

They want a big, so we look to Kaman and Bogut in a 3-team deal... GS shuts us down... saying all they want is Dwight. It's been irritating to say the least.

Orlando and New Orleans are ready to deal... and GS is just standing in the corner with their arms crossed and shoulders shrugged.

They aren't getting Dwight...idk why they are even dreaming that scenario.

Ken Berger ‏ @KBergCBS

Person involved in the talks says Rockets have now backed away from Bogut discussions to pursue another deal. Stay tuned.

Rockets backed out of Bogut deal...

Thats a deal I would be all over. It leaves the magic slightly thin at the SF position but I think it helps improve on what the magic is lacking. I true backup C and someone that can drive to the basket.

If that deal were to go down. Every "Fire Otis" sig should be "Hail Otis"

EDIT: I take that back, I realize Clark isn't part of the deal and this really would improve the roster as a whole.

I'm honestly not too sure... maybe someone else can help with this... I think it's been mostly more tweets (from Alex Kennedy) and stuff from Marc Stein and ESPN... ESPN being total buzzkills as usual:(

Either Rockets are getting Gasol, or Magic and GSW just hit the Bogut lottery
