    Someone on RealGM brought this up and I thought it was a good deal. A lot like what the Celtics did this year to the roster getting Ray Allen.

    New York trades:
    Stephon Marbury
    2008 first round pick

    New Jersey trades:
    Vince Carter
    Stromile Swift
    2008 first round pick

    Would you do it?

    Salary space and a top five pick.

    Unprotected top 5 pick? Hell yes. We draft Gordon, Rose, or Batum to replace VC...why not?

    Maybe we could pry one of their good young players from 'em, too.

    Yes Marbury is expiring and if getting the likes of:

    Eric Gordon
    DeAndre Jordan
    Derrick Rose
    Nicolas Batum

    ...along with 20 million expiring is a bad deal, then you have to start watching basketball outside of UConn.

    I am not so sure that i want to give up VC.

    I mean if we get rid of him, there will be no more double teams on him and no one will get open, it may take a even worse hit on the offensive.

    There is no way Isiah gives up that pick.

    As of now, It's pretty much top 5 guaranteed.

    Please, no DeAndre Jordan. Please. I've never understood the fascination with him.

    Same here. As far as I know, he has no skills, and all he does is dunk. Weak.

    If there was ever a player to get excited over his physical measurements, its Deandre. He's the type of guy you draft and stash away for a couple of years.

    I don't get the fascination with Jordan either, I predict Seattle drafts him, puts him in a house with Swift, Petro, and Sene and tapes it for 3 months, and BAM reality TV show.
