Something about that article makes me think Tim Potvak used to work for the New York Daily News... Pros for Miami: 1. Getting Posey 2. Getting Williams 3. Getting rid of Jones Pros for Memphis: 1. uhhhh..... The issue isn't how good this deal would make Miami (it would make them much better than they are now), it's whether West would ever agree to such a deal. The answer is an unequivocal no.
The New York papers basically just spit on the genious of Jerry West... Was it written by Peter Vescey? Probably so. I've found that almost nothing he ever claims as a rumor ever comes true. That is... Unless Jerry West wants cap space to pursue a major free agent in the 2005 markey... And yes, there are major free agents.
