    I actually don't think Maggette would be a good fit on the team, but think Gerald Wallace would be perfect and obtainable for relatively cheap if Portland takes back Nazr Mohammed and his contract.

    Proposed Trade at ESPN
    Portland Trades:
    Martell Webster
    Sergio Rodriguez
    Reaf LaFrentz
    $3MM Straight Cash Homie

    Charolette Trades:
    Gerald Wallace
    Nazr Mohammed

    I'd much rather trade away Webster in this situation because of Webster's ability to play both Forward spots. But if Outlaw instead of Webster was a deal breaker for Charlotte, I'd give in.

    Both players become available for trade on Monday. Maggette is in his first year of a 5 year $50 million deal, but ESPN is saying he's up for trade. Same with Gerald Wallace whose contract has 4 years left at $9.5 million. Rumors are that Portland has been in Felton discussions, but they don't say who initiated those discussions and/or if Portland did anything more than listen to an offer and say no.

    Felton doesn't make sense to me unless the team is sold that Bayless is not right for the team and plan on trading him.

    Corey Maggette would be great in the "And1" league and I have zero interest in him whatsoever.

    Gerald Wallace on the other hand could be a really nice addition, but I'm not so sure about his health -- tough call.

    Well Maggette has a torn hamstring so he's out of the discussion.

    No thanks to Maggette. He's on the block because he's a cancer and not a team player. They say he's so worried about "getting his" and he refuses to play team ball.

    We may already have a mini-Maggette with Bayless. By that I mean that he can get to the hole at will and get to the free throw line at a high clip if he ever gets the green light.

    I'd give up quite a bit for Wallace, but would prefer to keep Sergio if possible. Maybe Blake, Outlaw, etc...

    But in seriousness, I'd give up anyone but the big 3 and Rudy for Wallace. If I were Atlanta, I'd try for gettting rid of a bad contract, Blake & Pryzbilla (to develop a solid bench behind Bibby and Horford), Frye and a future first rounder

    What a board.

    The OP calls for the killing of people based solely on their religion, yet posters like me get PMs and warnings.

    :dunno:

    Wait, what? What does that have to do with Gerald Wallace or Maggette? Did someone take a shot at Mohammed or something?

    Considering they gave away J-Rich for parts, I hope we make a run at getting Wallace!

    I see Wallace going to Minnesota. They really want McCants over there and Minnesota can give them Collin's expiring contract and a low 1st Rounder as well...that looks like the most likely deal

    Lucy, you got some splaining to do....

    In other words, don't know what your comment has to do with Wallace or Maggette. Wanna talk B-Ball?

    And I like this board.
