I don't know what that was of Dave Waddings, but according to the Minneapolis paper, Kandi and Ervin Johnson are the ones going to be left unprotected.

I just thought of something that would be crazy, but I wouldn't neccessarily throw it out...
I always thought Shaq was going to stay in LA even in both Kobe and Phil didn't, but it is looking like he might not anymore, well how crazy would it be if they traded his contract back to Orlando? Then instead of Okafor you draft Gordon or some pimp guard, damn. |

Nah, I'm pretty sure #1 would go to Los Angeles for Shaq, and next year's #1 too. Maybe one more. This is Shaq, man! And I bet the Lakers would cream themselves to get Okafor. Try emulating the team that destroyed you, starting with the short defensive dynamo at Center. Then they would try signing T-Hud (a pg who wanted to start so he left the Wolves) keep Kobe, the athletic 2-guard... keep malone, or trade players to Sacto for Webber, or get Sheed... to make up the elite PF position... but how are you going to emulate Tayshaun? He's the man, the Lakers might just try to emulate the 'Melo thing and get a forward, maybe just let Rush "fill in the gap" until next year's draft when they can get a long dude in the top 10, since the Magic will still suck with Shaq... they're not a team I see winning ever. |

ESPN.com reports that Shaq & T-Mac have demanded trades, and Phil is officially out.

Hmm... Well put those players together with two picks, even them out, and then give the Wolves T-Mac and Shaq. ![]() DaveWadding would like them trades. |

Five more years till they get new ones.

That new Grizzlies' jersey beats the hell out of their previous ones. I personally think their first jersey (the Vancouver one), was fuckin' tight.

Well Houston needs to get ride of Francis and Mobley but TMac still isn't the right player for the system
They really needed a true point guard and a quality 2 or 3 who knows how to share the ball. TMac is a great player but all that they've basically done is put the problems they had with Francis and Mobley and put it into one player. |

Also, looks like the Bobcats will get either Okafor or Howard, depending on who goes #1 in the draft.
They got the clippers #2 pick. BTW, Houston would get Tyronn Lue as well. |

Orlando needs to take Okafor.
I like to think that the Wolves could get Shaq for Spre, Kandi, and a first round pick, but thats just really, really optimistic |

Ugh, the guys on Sportscentre keep saying "Well when your nickname is the Franchise you better be good enough to yada yada yada"
His name is Franchise because it sounds like Francis, not because he is the Franchise player of the NBA, Stuart

This is the last year of the "example making" period, or the "sanctions" against the "Pete Rose" of the NBA. ![]() You can trade draft picks up to like 5 years in the future. I think I've seen some picks traded even further, when they're conditional. Like Darko... who was it, the Grizzlies or the Raptors missed out on #2 because if it was #3 or lower? Something like that. The NBA draft pick trading situation is messed up. Either way, if the Mavs get Shaq I'm going to not enjoy basketball. Mark Cuban is the biggest douchebag in the history of sports. I bet he's going to work his ass off to become the commissioner of the NBA and then destroy it out of spite, because jocks used to beat the shit out of him for being an obnoxious nerd in high school. |

I am actually a fan of Mark Cuban for the most part.
Honestly, if I was him I wouldn't be so intent on holding onto Dirk. They could easilly work with a Dirk for Shaq, throw in some draft picks or shitty players. I could see Dirk on the Lakers. Dirk doesn't help Dallas' inside game, he is easily expandable, but Cuban obviously is in love with him. Shaq-Walker-Jaimison-Finley-Nash (they would have to get him back) I think they would be better off with that than with Dirk in there. |
