@IAMAGM: Rumors: Lakers trying to move Metta World Peace for a late first-round pick, also Pau Gasol to Wizards for #3 pick http://t.co/9mmDu4U3

Why the hell would Wizards want Gasol with already having Okafor and Nenë??

Maybe Washington is collecting aging power forwards that have been forced to play center in the past...?

Sort of like Otis and shooting guards the past few years.

that makes no sense for the wizards. i guess the lakers would draft beal to eventually take over for kobe though. didn't know gasol had that kind of value

wall
crawford?
ariza
nene
gasol

with okafor coming off the bench

thats for sure a playoff team and probably good for the 5 or 4 seed in the east

they would have to send someone back to LA to work money wise.

Gasol + 3 for Nene's contract?

i dont see any reason for washington to even entertain trading with the lakers?

BUT if something does happen and they end up with #3... Bynum + #3 for dwight?

[MoMM]

Emeka + Blatche + #3 for Gasol?

[The Real Dalic]

Emeka + Blatche + #3 for Gasol?

That's WAY too much IMO.

[OrlChamps2030]

Side note...

The Wizards could be a legit playoff team next year

Wall
Beal
Ariza
Okafor
Nene

i actually dont like this team personally

probably some of the worst spacing ive ever seen

okafor is on a terrible contract, ariza has regressed

this team's ceiling would be the 8th seed bobcats from a few years ago, good defense terrible offense. I can't believe they traded rashards huge expiring for okafor and ariza

[Idunkonyou2]

The Wizards aren't trading their #3 pick for Gasol.

[MoMM]

Idk, Emeka's contract is bad and they dont want to pay Blatche too.

In fact both players decrease the value that is sent to LAL, IMO.

I think it would be wise of Rob to tell Dwight to "stay out on a limb" with his decision, publicly. Even if, behind closed doors, Dwight's bought in and wants to continue his career with the Magic. Doing this gives other teams the wrong impression, and leads them to "show their cards" while struggling to clear cap space. Now I highly doubt this is happening, but it's an interesting idea. And as far as YBR's info... hang on let catch me this call, it's Dwight.

I'm heading to the gym, so can someone please create part 28 if I don't get back in time. If anything, I'll just do it from my phone.

[chrpri84]

I believe that we are dealing Dwight..and Im okay with it..lets just get the right deal.

“@IAMAGM: Tyreke Evans very unhappy playing small forward for the Kings http://t.co/HX2JGaIe”

[OrlChamps2030]

Hey guys, YBR just called.

He said that Dwight is having an ultimate frisbee game in his backyard in a few hours, all realgm posters are invited. See ya there bros!!!

[Swiftraven]

Damn, the guy isn't even on this board and you trash him. If you don't believe him, quit reading or posting his stuff on this board.

On a related topic, I haven't figured out how this board the TBN just can't seem to exist without bitching about the other.

I read both and can't figure out where the hatred started. Did I miss something from decades ago that has festered (damn I love that word) into the feud that currently exists?

How available for the right deal (this would be part of a much larger Dwight deal) that would net you draft picks, expiring and a large TPE plus would let you get rid of some of your worse contracts in addition to possible some additional salary. And what is the situation with Nelson's contract? Are there any options involved? Trying to put something together.

No answer? I guess that means that you don't care.

Either I drank expired milk this morning or the first half of your question doesn't really make sense... what are you asking??

this site has more outlandish trade ideas, the other has shard-heads. Very big ideological differences between them that will likely never be reconciled.

Sorry, I left out the principal. I'm thinking Ryan Anderson. My apologies.

If we trade D12 to Houston we should get Donatas Motiejunas, IMO.
