Does anyone have an idea of what the GS ORL MIL trade would look like?

Let's refer back to this:
http://www.hoopsworld.com/warriors-purs ... e-deadline
The Warriors have discussed a three-team deal with the Orlando Magic and New Orleans Hornets, which would send Monta Ellis to Orlando and Chris Kaman to Golden State. Other players would be included and, rather than forcing the Warriors to take on players like Milwaukee, the Magic would be willing to take on some of Golden State’s bad contracts. At this point, it seems that the three-team deal is a back-up plan for the Warriors, one they would consider if their talks with Milwaukee break down.


Come on Golden State.. bring it on home! Let's do some business!

A trade is something a GM would probably sleep on before finishing.

Yep... right when we get to 100, I'll post it... let's do this! 17 might be the last one (thankfully) until the summer off-season.

As long as it doesn't involve GSW or Milwaukee and possibly NO, I don't care what Houston is up to.

And Lowry's out for the next 2-4 weeks... He's a big part of a Gasol trade...
