    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Sekou Smith of the Atlanta Journal Constitution is reporting that the Atlanta Hawks , Portland Trailblazers, and Washington Wizards are discussing a multi-player trade.

    The rumored deal would have the Blazers sending Jamaal Magloire to the Wizards who would send Brendan Haywood and Jarvis Hayes to the Hawks while they send Lorenzon Wright, Salim Stoudemire, and Esteban Batista to the Blazers. </div>

    This is too good of a deal for the Hawks. For Magloire's sake, I hope this trade happens. Seems like an ideal situation for him.

    I don't think it's ideal for him at all. Isn't he slow? The Wizards are a very up tempo team.

    Yeah but, it just hurts the Wizards' bench a lot more. Brendan Haywood has been playing great as of lately since starting over the injured Etan Thomas, and I don't think he officially made a request to be traded. Jarvis Hayes has had trouble coming off an injured knee this season, but it's not like we get another shooter that can come off the bench. The Wizards are in a good position to reach the Eastern Conference Finals, so I don't think they should move anyone right now.

    Portland gives up the most and receives the least back. I call BS on this rumor.
