Trade coming?

Bye Bye Vucevic!


I would be shocked if we trade Vuc before the season ended. I can see him being moved in draft day deal but not sooner.

We need to move at least one of our PG's and Ibaka.

Gabe York is on fire in Erie. We gotta sign him to a 10-day, why not? Zimm has been in Erie since January 2nd? Odd to call a dleager up for a road game, even if only in Miami. Would be so happy if the rumors start leaking this afternoon.

It amazes me that NBA teams don't use these D League teams like MLB teams use minor league teams. I think eventually you will see that but for whatever reason we would rather watch young guys like Mario not play basketball at all.

It's long over due. Every team needs a true minor league system to groom young talent, because right now the system is broken.

You think so?
I would say aurevoir monsieur ibaka

People are just eager to trade Nik for absolutely no reason. Doesn't mean it cant happen though. I could see one of Ibaka and/or Nik traded in the coming weeks. Nobody is going to want garbage ass Biyombo and his awful contract.

Unfortunately, I think Biyombo will be our starting C really soon, and I'll be really sad to see Vuc go. :(

Vuc has played much better defensively this year. I would hate to trade him on the cheap...he's a good big man on a GREAT deal.

If Vuc is as good as you guys think then shouldn't we be getting back an equally good player or asset to compensate your sadness?

It is almost the ASW and Zimmerman can spend the week working with Orlando trainers and player-development staff.

If we get picks or a young player with potential then that would be amazing, but it also doesn't mean that I wouldn't be sad to see him go. It's the same thing with Dipo, I still miss him because he was a good person and player while he was here.

Well hes the only one worth a damn. Nobody is going to pay Biyombo $17 million to do nothing. Since moving Nik is an immediate, and massive downgrade at the center position it'll be good for the tank.

Ah, I guess I glossed over the sentimental value that he has with some fans.

Rob has said that moving Biyombo isn't difficult in his infamous luncheon brief.

Once we had a team where we have ball dominant wings that score a lot, a bunch of you Biyombo non-believers will start to see why he fits better on a contender than Vuc does.
