    or can we even waive him? arent the raps over the cap? so according to the new cba we can waive him and not have to pay him right?

    with all the fresh young talent we're bringing in...i would hate to see him getting minutes over graham. he was such a chucker for us last year...he barely EVER passed the ball...all he did was shoot. no matter who else was open, no matter how ugly the shot was, no matter how much time was on the clock...he was shooting. plus he still complained...i really dont want him on the team...can we get rid of him please?

    We would still have to pay him and count against the cap, but we wouldn't have to pay luxury tax. Here's my trade proposal:

    Toronto trades:

    G/F Lammond Murray

    New York trades:

    A bottle of Gatorade
    And a towel

    Good trade for both teams. [​IMG]

    Forget trading him...who wants him? Maybe during mid-season some non-contender might want him for cap space, but I rather buy out his contract know this season so it opens up a roster spot going into training camp.

    Give Mitch a call, you can probably get Odom and a No, 1 for lamond.

    I dunno, if that Gatorade bottle and towel offer is still on the table, I'd take it. [​IMG]

    They should cut him and use that amnesty exception.

    Make sure it is the orange flavored Gatorade, that is definitely the best. cant stand that dark purple stuff. maybe we could one of many of spike lee's hats? those things are damn dirty they'll surely give it to us.

    If we really wanted to use the salary exception rule and create some cap room, wouldn't we want to to use it on Jalen?

    But Jalen's actually productive. I wouldn't mind buying Jalen out, but that would mean our team would be in full rebuilding mode, possibly the worst team this year. And we would have nobody at the 2 besides MoPete. The only reason I wouldn't buyout Lammonds contract is if it ends after this season.

    Lamond's contract does end after this season. It'll be wiser on Babcock's part to deal him for a second round pick and / or a scrab.

    hmmm, Odom and a No 1...

    Babcock turns down your offer and, offers Lamond Murray and Chris Bosh for Devean George and Slava Medvedenko and Jack Nicholson.

    I would rather use it on Lammond thanJalen because Jalen is productive, and despite his contract, a trade could be wokred out with him.

    Do the Charlotte Bobcats have the rights to one our First Round Draft picks this year?

    Give him every possession for 1 game, let him score 50 pts, hype him up, then the Lakers will trade you Bynum and Kobe for him and Jalen. Trust me the Lakers are an easy sale especially for unproven stiffs with "potential".

    [​IMG] The only problem would be that Lamond Murray would be shooting 24 / 93 from the floor and that would scare Mitch Kupchak [​IMG]
