    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Brendan Haywood, Washington center, has told president of basketball operations Ernie Grunfeld he wants to be traded this summer, according to two team sources and a league source with knowledge of the situation.

    Haywood's relationship with Eddie Jordan is beyond repair, according to sources.

    "He pretty much said that the relationship between himself and Eddie had gotten to the point where he didn't want to be in Washington anymore because he doesn't feel that he'll be treated fairly," the league source said.</div>

    No suprise here, I wanna see Ernie Grunfeld package him and our first round pick for a quality big man. I know this year's draft seems deep, but there's not a lot of Roy Hibbert/Greg Oden quality players in the middle of the first round.

    EJ hates Haywood, and it's clear, he does need to go if EJ stays. Many times we'd see Haywood playing well, helping the team, then Michael Ruffin comes in and starts getting more minutes than him.

    Haywood, is a good quality centre. But The wizards arn't going to find a big man in the draft unless Hibbert or Noah fall. Trade him AND why not try and trade Butler.

    Before people go off, I think you can get a good center for Butler and Haywood. Maybe even KG??? if you offer lets say some more bench players and acouple of future picks, why not.

    Haywood is a decent center in the league and is hell of a lot better than Etan Thomas. Eddie Jordan is a moron for letting things go out of hand.

    Well the Wizards are supposedly bringing in Pecherov who they drafted last season.

    Well one can't just expect to get a very good - great C like that. A rotation at C of Etan Thomas, Pecherov and Songaila should be fine. Jamison plays PF, but he really isn't a PF anyways as he doesn't provide any sort of interior presence at either end, but what can you do.
