    Nets want Fernandez?

    This one had me cracking up. If KP does the following deal, I'd be shocked. No way the Nets will get all of this for Carter.

    Rudy isn't going anywhere especially for VC. Maybe for someone like Granger or Butler but not VC who I don't even think KP wants that bad.

    This is hilarious! Maybe if we throw in Roy, Aldridge, and Oden they'll toss D.Harris into the deal.

    Thorn doesn't have the leverage to ask for Rudy. He has less than 24 hours to save his owner $30MM. Tick-tock tick-tock.

    Nets Want Rudy?

    I only post this because Shooter's link disappeared for some reason.

    If anyone knows anything about this, please give more details. This would make Sug's post a bit more understandable. He said a player involved would upset some posters, and Rudy being involved would upset some posters.

    If we traded Rudy for VC I think I would stop watching the Blazers. That is fucking ridiculous.

    Apparently OKC rescinded the Chandler trade as well. Perhaps you missed the 4 threads about it on the board right now. :lol:

    Re: Nets Want Rudy?

    It was merged into this thread, which is dedicated to the same link that is being updated periodically by ESPN.com.

    The only way Portland would include Rudy would be if Devin Harris was also involved. Basically, not a chance.

    I didn't know it was an ESPN link. How could I since the link disappeared almost instantly?

    Re: Nets Want Rudy?

    It didn't disappear. It was merged into this thread.

    This thread has a link and an explanation of what it is.

    There are about a dozen posts at the end of the thread dedicated to that exact topic, and it has been quoted within the posts at least twice.

    It disappeared completely for me. So did the forum for about a minute. What's going on? Who are these people?

    Haha. Weird.

    Maybe we're spinning the hamster wheel too quickly today?

    You guys are doing great, but I swear at some point I was watching live coverage of the 1980 USA-USSR hockey semi-final game through some sort of S2 wormhole.

    Batum looks good tonight. You watching Mixum? Batum is going to be a good SF. He is only a 19 year old rookie and plays good D plus can score if given the chance.

    Your not getting Rudy. KP would want a lot more then VC for RLEC and Rudy.

    Rudy is overrated by many members of this board. I'm sure I'll get killed again for this, but ultimately he isn't a SF and he won't supplant Roy at SG.

    I don't disagree, but why trade him now when he's under cheap team control for three more years?
