    The new owner is VERY rich and has already said the current contract situation doesn't both him at all.

    BTW-why would a GM tell the press about a potential blockbuster trade that is potentially in the works?

    I like the idea, especially with the state of the new ownership . . . but I don't see the Jazz sending Williams to a division rival.

    To give us time to plan a proper rally.

    Using the same logic to those that have complained about Harris, why would they want Miller? I am guessing they could turn Harris for Miller pretty easily if they just wanted a shorter contract.

    I put Devin Harris in the deal because he has a positive value contract. No doubt New Jersey would be interested in Paul. With him on board with Lopez and Favors plus a new billionaire owner, that team looks pretty good. As it sits, they are going to really have to make a sell for a major free agent to sign with them.

    I take Batum over Gallinari, but would definitely take Gallinari and a 15M trade exception over Nic if I were the Hornets.

    If Monty really liked Batum that much, we would probably do some tweeking to just a simple Collison for Nic trade. That is definitley not the trade rumored though.

    The fact that Monty wanting Nic leads to us getting Paul is delusional.

    :confused:Huh?:confused:

    All that article does is confirm that Paul is almost certainly *not* on the market.

    If they rejected a deal for OJ Mayo, I doubt they'd be enticed by Batum. Gotta offer Greg + pieces probably to get them to even return a call.

    There are no Quick haters here. They only show up when they feel like it.

    It confims that the blazers have/or will make an offer for Paul (very earthshattering and a job saver)
