    Well, if there was to be a package, the only players available on Boston would be Sheed, Garnett, Perkins, Davis, Rondo, Avery Bradley, Lafayette, Gaffney and Erden. I say we just ignore those last 3.

    Unlikely it's Garnett or Rondo. Can't see it being Perkins. Sheed only in a 3-way. Bradley, possibly. It'd be odd to add another point to the roster right now. I think Davis possibly makes the most sense. The difficulty is matching salaries. Davis makes 3 million this year. So we need to send out 2.4. Rudy would have to be paired with Elliot Williams, Babbit, or both Cunningham and Pendergraph to get that done. Hmmm. Maybe it does just end up being for a future first.

    Rudy to New York for an unprotected first. Shit, I forgot, they have very few of those.

    You need to tell him that you are "THE HIGHLIGHTS" guy and that you can make him look good for nothing if he will come here to Portland! Get on it!

    For one thing it doesn't work under the CBA, secondly I'm not a Big Baby fan, Sheed is done, I don't think Rondo and Roy would mesh well, we'd be fucked at power forward in a year or two when Camby is done ... lots of reasons.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    The Major Drama is on the back burner. We'll get back to the Major Drama when it's convenient. But believe me, there's a lot of caring being done by a lot of people.

    This is akin to saying a movie has a spectacular car wreck in it and then going and seeing a time lapse film of a car rusting away over 50 years.

    Right, I understand that they can be traded 30 days after they sign. not my question.

    There is a league wide moratorium on transactions beginning July 1st, for a week. I don't know if rookies fall under this, and also can not sign or what, though, so was curious if he actually signed July 1st, and if rookies are able to.
