    Believe me, I have zero interest in trying to impress anyone here or anywhere else on the internet. Don't care what you believe. Just kicking a little information down the line.

    He's been playing basketball for 12 years, why do you think anything has changed with his game during the last two?

    Five team trade. Lakers end up with Korver, MN gets Batum, Orlando gets Bynum, Chicago gets Martell, and Portland gets Dwight Howard. Seems fair.

    Re: Minnesota: full of shit?

    I'm sorry, but I can't find Batum on that page. Where does it say he's worth $11m? He produced the 86th-most wins in 2011, and it seems unlikely that the NBA would have 86 players all making $11m+ a year, and even less so that players like Tony Allen, Ed Davis, Josh McRoberts and Dorell Wright (all ahead of him on the list) would be.

    I might be missing something, of course. Please help me understand :)

    Coming from you, via Minnesota, that would be up the line when referring to Portland

    Nic is between Camby and Duncan.

    The value is more based on WS/48 than total WS's.

    It actually looks pretty straight across East to West when looking at Google Maps.

    Re: Minnesota: full of shit?

    Well maybe we should fire the GM and give out contracts based off wages of wins? I mean you seem to suggest it’s a good isolated metric to hand out contracts.

    Personally if you believe Nic’s performance to date is worthy of $11mil a year I think you’re an idiot.

    Latitude and longitude have nothing to do with you and Minnesota being inferior to Portland

    I don't buy this.

    Neil has said many times that he wants assets young enough to build around.

    Korver is 31/32.

    Don't be mean just cause other Minnesota fans are trolls. This guy seems to be the only legit one.

    FTFY.

    He's not posting porn, and he's only talking 50% of the ish as the others. And he appears to be older than 13. Kudos to him. That makes him one in a million....err... 12,000.
