i do doubt it... why would DW do anything to help another team land Lebron James when he's the guy we've been after for the past 2 years? for us to absorb a contract like Beasley, it would have to happen AFTER another team already lands Lebron.

After 7 years & 40K+ posts, banned by martin for calling Nalod a 'moron'. Awesome.

I don't believe this trade. It makes no sense for Washington. It sounds like a typical ESPN made up rumor. Ernie Grunfeld is not that dumb to waste his cap space on Kirk freaking Hinrich. Why would you have John Wall, Gilbert Arenas and Hinrich? And even if this happens, Chicago is still not far enough for 2 MAX FA's. ESPN can't even do simply math! Argh!

You assume Washington doesnt have a deal in place for Gilbert Arenas.

Trade 1:
Gilbert and Blatche for Vince

Trade 2:
Hinrich, Gibson, and pick for Cap space

Carter can play SF, Hinrich at SG, Wall at PG

They had about $25mil of cap space before Hinrich assuming they let Howard walk or flip him in a trade this summer and $16mil after the Hinrich trade minus Pick 17 and maybe James Johnson. Really you're trying to dumb down a decent trade that was made here.

Who did you have going to the Wizards this summer of significant impact to brings guns to the Arena to shoot em up with Arenas

http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/news/story?id=5322877

i really love ESPN's reporting here. somehow the heat's $27M is enough to get two max guys... when a max deal is $16.8M. no mention of the knicks who have $34M in cap room and actually have enough to acquire two max free agents.

Beasley makes like 5 Million. You think they cant give him away this summer?

FROM Adrian Wojnarowski, who is fairly reliable:

http://twitter.com/WojYahooNBA/status/16952930403

For everything the Heat's tried to simply give him away, there isn't one team yet willing to take Michael Beasley into cap space.

There are few teams with Cap Space right now. When July 8th rolls around do you think a team like the Clips or Memphis will pass on absorbing Beasley?

Teams with cap space are trying to get big guys. If Lebron goes to Chicago do you think Walsh will pass on Beasley for FREE? I doubt it.

looks like you've got a bit of an anti-NY bias yourself.

no, no one wants the no defense playing substance abuser.

miami has been trying to give him away and can't. word is they tried to give him to NJ for cap space and tried to have him go in the deal that d cook eventually went in.

If this draft is a deep as it says it is then I'd say the deal is fair. What has Yi done since coming into the league? I'd ask for a second round pick if I were the Nets and pull the trigger.

Rumor from RealGM that Beasley was traded for Gomes.

Pat Riley knows something. No way in HELL does he trade his pick and lottery player when Wade can bolt this summer.

This is NBA war and Riley and Paxson are on some Kamakazi stuff.

What time does it start? Should I go to bed or is it worth waiting up for? So many questions and no LeBronswers.
Some men see things as they are and ask why. I dream things that never were and ask why not?

everyone said walsh knows something too and now people are saying paxson knows something.. if they all know something, atleast 2 out of the 3 are going to end up looking stupid. no one knows anything, but you got to be in it to win it, so all 3 shed space at the expense of young talent.

upon first glance...

it's starting to sound BAD for our team coming into the draft...

chicago and miami making moves (or in the process of) making moves to get to sign 2 max fa's?

i'll do my best to remain calm, but kam is perhaps right now...

donnie may have been taken to the cleaners on the jeffries deal...

to be fair, hinrich is a better player, paid similarly, to jeffries...

the other reality is we can still thank isiah for not having a pick this year to give in a deal of similar caliber...
