Re: W&G: DEADLINE DAY IS HERE !

Better to stand pat then give up JJ for someone we're not totally convinced will help us for the next few seasons.

But, I guess a good place to start is what has happened throughout the league and where that leaves us. The Brad Miller deal was a bad thing for us, in that we had hopes of getting Camby and Salmons.. We were hoping trade attempts on Miller would fall flat and we would end up sitting there waiting to pounce. So, with that trade going down, it ended any need for them to move Camby, and that ended that.

It seems to me that the inference here is that the following deal was being discussed:

Cleveland receives: Marcus Camby, John Salmons
Sacramento receives: Wally Szczerbiak
LA Clippers receives: Brad Miller

That wouldn't have been a bad deal, though I'm not sure LA would have done Camby-for-Miller.

It's also possible, maybe probable, that W+G mistyped and meant Miller in the post above when he said Camby. I'm not sure.

That sounds interesting. I don't see how LAC would have done that, though. I'm interested in what that big trade was that W&G said fell through and put a cloud over the GM office...

I was thinking the same 2 things, but he says Camby twice? Hard to believe it's a mistype...
 
Re: W&G: DEADLINE DAY IS HERE !

I'd love to know what we wanted/want from the Bulls. Deng, Kirk, Nocioni's gone?
 
Re: W&G: DEADLINE DAY IS HERE !

I dont think that the cavs had any interest in Miller, just that he was an available big man and the Cavs are after a big man so everyone assumed.

W&G had to have been talking about Camby and Salmons coming to CLE with Miller going to LAC. because the Clips are thin at the bigs right now with Kaman out and Randolph suspended so they would need one back. So i doubt it was a typo.

Whoever mentioned Ben Gordon I think is onto something. Chicago definately has a huge amount of people at the 1/2/3. I can't believe they traded Noc instead of a guy like Thabo. However I highly doubt that Chicago would trade him inside their own division, let alone to a championship contender. Especially if they don't receive any talent for him. There would have to be a third team.

As long as we don't touch Hinrich I will be happy, that guy is a bum.
 
Re: W&G: DEADLINE DAY IS HERE !

The Camby/Salmons/Miller thing confuses the heck out of me as well, but agree that as it's repeated twice it's unlikely a mistype. Probably a 3 team deal that fell through.

I hope that the dejection is not something that sticks around. Remember last year. Nothing was going to happen the night before when Ferry went to bed and then we ended up with a HUGE trade!

I will hold out hope for RJ or SOMETHING.... ;-)

Thanks, as always, for the info and updates W&G. Great stuff and much appreciated.

Amare trade. They all would of been over the moon just to be in contention for him, but then when he was off the table that surely would have stopped the Championship celebrations at least for now.

Drive safe W&G, it's kinda crappy out.

Ninja style, Pip.

I kinda figure the Cavs just want to offer Wally and a first for whom ever. But teams want JJ included and we aren't budging. Ferry's playing it out to the end, where like W&G said, some owner will cave and say cut costs It's all about who gives in first.

I'm curious to the big deal they were hoping for yesterday. Hopefuly it happens today or we aleast find out about it afterward.
