    There are conflicting reports regarding the imminence of a potential trade sending Gilbert Arenas to the the Magic, but at least one has said the deal is done and that he will debut on Monday against the Hawks.

    One other report says the deal is not "imminent," but all of the reports suggest that the sides are serious and by all appearances this trade is going down. Early reports suggested that Vince Carter and Marcin Gortat would be headed to the Wizards, but a recent report has Rashard Lewis possibly being the key piece with another trade involving the former pair in the works. Stay tuned.

    I hope Nate isn't too devastated that Cho didn't wheel and deal for Gunnin' Gilbert.

    Who knows? But I have a feeling he is a recycled character from the Jettie school. (scary)

    Re: Rumor: Arenas traded to Orlando.

    Roy for Vince and Gortat was probably available too, given the news that 7-8 teams called about Roy



    Although I can't find a trade that works with them on trade Machine

    Roy, Dante and Camby for Vince and Gortat works, and then taking Orton back with one of our exceptions.

    Re: Rumor: Arenas traded to Orlando.



    I honestly think we could get a pick with that also. I also think Orlando becomes the favorites in the east after that deal


    Good job, I didn't try it with Camby.

    Re: Rumor: Arenas traded to Orlando.

    That is interesting because according to the article it said that the teams involved, Portland was one of them. It also mentioned Denver (Carmello involved? Yes/No?). So I am guessing because of the amount of money involved with Arenas contract that more than one team had to be involved to make it work. Here is the link to it at hoopsworld:

    If you read that one it definitely said Portland and Denver were called in on this deal, so they may or may not be involved.

    I can't wait until the off season when Co is done evaluating and analyzing the phone call. I hope he decides to pick it up

    That could be where Gortat for Miller comes in.... I guess we'll see.

    Re: Rumor: Arenas traded to Orlando.

    We are starting to see a few rumors that have indicated Cho is talking to teams. It seems pretty obvious to me he is on the phone, and he is seeking out deals. There are too many rumors with Portland involved over the last few days for him not to be.
