    Deal would be the largest in NBA history. Crazy.

    Sucks we play NJ next Saturday. Hopefully it hits a snag for a week.

    And the Heat trio thought they'd be the star trio out east. This would be huge for the Nets if they pull this deal off......

    there was a part as well that said POR was trying to get in on the deal - Dev Harris the target I think. Maybe Denver swings Harris to POR for Miller and what? I know they want Batum but I don't want to send him in a Harris deal. Maybe Andre and our 1st rdr and a Euro (Claver?) for Devin Harris.

    It's actually spelled Chode, so your insult would make more sense that way.

    The Nuggets will suck after that trade.

    BTW I would take Petro along with Harris if that was the clincher. Basically if we could give up Miller and Joel to get those two guys, that would be a nice deal. Petro(24) is not terrible and he would become the backup center. Harris would be the starting PG with Mills backing him up. Devin is 27 and has a pretty decent contract. We would basically be getting two players for one because Joel has been non-existent to this point in the season. We would have a nice PG and certainly an upgrade at the backup C/PF slot. If we had to throw in our 2.2mil trade exception from the Bayless trade and a draft pick so be it. We could also add in 3mil of PAs cashola.

    fully agree, if taking Petro gets us Harris that is a no brainer, I'd even throw a 1st rd pick in

    thereby improving Portlands playoff chances.

    Here's to hoping the Nuggets make a trade and it either involves Portland or two eastern conference teams.

    In the short term. If Favors and the 2 draft picks pan out, they could rebuild fast. :dunno:

    Maybe it's just me, but I don't think this trade puts the Nets on the Heat/Celtic/Magic level. More like on the Hawks/Bulls/Knicks level.

    I would say even that is optimistic. Rip is not what he used to be and Billups is ok. Melo/Rip/Lopez<Rose/Boozer/Noah/Deng

    That would be a bad move for the Nets. I'd like to see it, though, because Murphy is rotting on my fantasy basketball team's bench.

    Agreed. But you have to start somewhere.

    You seriously still own Murphy in a fantasy league? Great idea there. Don't want anyone to get 3 points and 4 boards a night from him.

    You obviously know exactly how many teams are in our league and our roster sizes.

    Nice insight.
