would you do this?

Dude - Take a moment and actually type something out. People shouldn't have to go to another website to find out what the heck you're talking about.
 
1:

Nuggets get Brad, Hart, Skinner, Randolph. Kings get Camby/Kleiza. Blazers get Kenyon.

2:

Wiz get KT/Corliss. Kings get Haywood/Etan Thomas/Daniels.

I like both.
 
Um...on number 2, what POSSIBLE reason would the Wiz do that?
I suppose #1 is remotely possible, but I do not think the Nuggets have any interest in trading Camby at all.

To make the Kings better at their own (meaning the Wizards) expense.

...

Other than that, I've got nothin...
 
The ESPN trade machine is a cool concept but it has too many huge flaws. It's basically this salary+ this salary against this one. Does it add up? If so the trade is accepted. It doesn't take into consideration:

-a players skill
-the players position
-What the team needs
-Untouchable players(Duncan, LeBron, Kobe)
-Depth charts(Kings wouldn't trade Bibby or Miller for a really good SF)
-Rookie contracts.
-Unmovable contracts for X reason.(Webber, Allan Houston, etc)
-The value of an expiring contract.
- etc... (Am I missing any???)

Example: KG to Sacramento for Kenny T, Potatohead and Corliss works because the salaries match.
 
The trade machine doesn't make the trades for the person. It's not the trade machine's fault if someone is a dumb *** and decides KG for Kenny, Corliss, Potapenko is a good deal.

*cough*...Webber...*cough*

Ya I know... trading webber to the sixers really made themselves worse... but they wanted to help us out, so it worked.......................................................................................................................
 
I would do both trades... number 1 is possible, and I like it. Camby's health is a concern... but if he does stay healthy he is everything we want...

the second one is a landslide victory for us... its amazing... so lopsided that the wiz would never ever do it
 
i fixed it and the Wiz might do that. They were a mediocre rebounding team, and depending on what they get in the draft, they could use Kenny Thomas. And Haywood has been less than spectacular.

I assume you are going to make one right?

Traditionally, however, at least around here, if you're going to do that and bring it here for discussion, the mere numbers aren't enough. If you want to start a thread about a particular trade, then give your reasons why EACH team involved would actually do the trade.

Sorry. Your comment makes no sense whatsoever to me...
It makes perfect sense: if the Wizards would trade us Chris Webber for Mitch Richmond and Otis F. Thorpe, why not do that deal, too?

And, I'm against that first proposal: I am not in favor of any trade proposal that puts "Mister Glass" in a Kings uniform. He's only played as many as sixty-six games twice in a ten-year career. Zydrunas Ilgauskas had to prove me wrong about his durability by playing 75+ games, and Camby does, too.

I am speaking for someone else here, but I think maybe the comment was in reference to the Wizards giving us Webber for Richmond, which made us extremely better and the Wizards didn't benefit much from it.
 
Nah. I'd rather have "Mr. Glass" than "Mr. 2.8 rpg in playoffs" or "Mr. I'll let layups in".

Reasons of getting 'Mr. Glass'

- They are both missing large no. of games (so why not pick the DEFENSIVE, LONG ARMED AND REBOUNDER one).
- Camby looks bad because Melo shoots the ball too much. And no one in their team is an *ACTUAL* shooter.
- Miller is like Ostertag last year. But Ostertag can rebound.
- Give him another chance? Give me a break!
- Miller doesn't fare well against *Championship* teams.
- Give him another chance? give me a break! (Oh! I just said that)

But I would also like to have Chandler. He made alot of hell for Shaq. It would have continued if he wasn't injured.

EDIT: What I meant is Miller in the playoffs and Ostertag in the playoffs last year.

Chicago won't trade away Chandler. Hell, they traded away Elton Brand just to draft him.

This was b4 they knew how would end up playing in the NBA. They expected a lot more offense from him.

Webber - traded from the Wizards to the Kings - Made the Kings better at the Wizards' expense

C'mon folks, has it really been that long?????
