It was just a suggestion, a New Jersey-Portland trade isnt the only option Portland would have to trade Randolph.

Yes, Nenad is still improving, but Kidd and Carter won't be around New Jersey for much longer, so if they really want a shot at contending before they leave, they may have to start shopping for another big man.
-Damon Stoudemire is probably going to be bought out or traded as a filler in a trade.-Jamal Magloire will probably be traded-I dont know if he will be traded, but I think Ray Allens name will come up...-Jason Terrys name will probably float in some trade rumors, and with Devin Harris-Jason Terry backcourt still being good, Dallas might want a more traditional SG.-Morris Peterson will probably be traded(possibly to Portland for Magloire...just a thought)-Sean May might be dealt if Charlotte drafts a big

Why the hell would the Bobcats trade Sean May? They really need depth in the paint.
It's very possible that the Pistons will trade Nazr Mohammed in the off-season. He rarely (if ever) played since Chris Webber came to Motown. But if Webber doesn't come back, I expect Nazr to be back.
Worlds greatest NOW. I think you forgot that part...Kobe wont be traded, hes just crying because L.A needs more help... Should've never ran Shaq off, eh?

They ahve Brezec whos solid, and they have a hole at SG realisticly, why not put May on the block and see if they can bring a decent 2 guard in. I understand your logic of depth in the frontcourt, but if you dont have much at another position you should probably look to trade some of your depth for what you need. Wallace and Morrison can both play SG...but thats not their natural positions.

He's a good spot up shooter, and that's all they need out of that SG position because they have other guys who can score inside the 3. With the 8th pick they need to add a big man for frontcourt depth, and use their 2nd round pick for another SG. They don't have barely any depth downlow. Morrison and Wallace can play a little 2 guard when needed, like you said, but they don't have many guys that can come off the bench and consistently produce downlow.
Shawn Marion anybody?I also think that Marcus banks will be traded because they obviously do not need him in Phoenix.Beno Udrih will be traded but that isnt a big deal.Another player that I think will be traded is Lamar Odom.

You don't go trading Sean May, who is a legit PF for a SG, a very easy position to fill. From reading your posts the last few days, you clearly don't understand how much GM's like having depth in the paint. You said that if you have depth at one position that you should use that depth to help a weakness, since when do the Bobcats have depth in the paint to trade May? Outside of Okafor and May, the Bobcats have little proven talent. The Bobcats have the 22nd pick in the draft, where a good SG will be available. You don't go trading Sean May who is a valuable asset to the team when you can simply plug in Morrison who looked bad most of the year, but proved he can play the SG position.

Right now either Odom is leaving LA or Kobe is. The Lakers need to make a move and quickly. This kobe situation could turn ugly, hopefully not as bad as TO.
If the celtics can get KG without trading gerald green I think as soon as next year they can give any west team a run for their money.pg-rajon rondo/delonte westsg-paul piercesf-gerald greenpf-Kevin Garnettc-olawakandinot a bad team at all. I even think that team could beat any team in the central division including the bulls(unless we were to get kobe)
^If they did do that trade, they wouldnt be starting Olowakandi. He barley logged any minutes this year at all...They would have Perk or Gomes starting IMO...I would say this would be their lineup. PG: RondoSG: WestSF: PiercePF: GomesC: PerkinsGreen isn't ready to start yet. Delonte is much more proven...Although I want to see Gerald start, he isnt ready yet IMO....And if they did get KG, they wouldnt be even able to get out of the east let alone win against the West.
