1-Malik Rose to Portland for Ruben Patterson. I'm sure the Blazers would accept.
2-Jamal Crawford, Trevor Ariza and NY 2nd round pick (around 30-35 overall) for Gerald Wallace and Brevin Knight.
3-Quentin Richardson, Nate Robinson and SA pick for Jason Richardson.

I know Gerald Wallace is injured, in fact that is why the trade could work. I also know we would end up with no draft picks, but I really don't care. I just don't want the bulls to get a top 5 pick.

Curry/James/Butler
Frye/Lee/Taylor
Woods/Wallace
Richardson/Patterson
Marbury/Knight
I'm VERY disappointed with Larry Brown. If he had this team, play the ****ing line-up you want, but win the damned games! If can't win half of the games with that roster he should simply quit coaching, because this is a 50 win roster.
After all those sleepless night I'm getting by watching the Knicks I did not imagine that we would be that awful. And I still think that some of our players are really good. We are not a 50 wins teams, but are certainly MUCH better than a lottery team.

I'd do the 1st 2 without hesitation. Gerald Wallace is a defensive monster and a solid player on offense too. The third would be a tougher decision. I don't think Cha and GS would do the 2nd and 3rd trades, though.

Whoa - you guys surprise me. You wouldn't jump all over the JRich deal? He's not a bonafide stud 2-guard? What am I missing here in evaluating him?

Funny, Baron and Marbs are very similar.

JRich with Baron is a stud.

On paper the Warriors look even better than the Knicks. And it ain't working there.

Trade one is doable.
Trade two makes sense because the 'Cats need a Two badly. Real bad. But I can almost see them waiting the season out. They ain't going no where with Craw.

Trade three is pipedream. They would never do that unless they value Nate more than I do. A lot more.

He's a stud on offense who plays "Jamal Crawford-type" defense

Of course if I'm the Warriors GM I would not accept it, but hey, wait until Q wins the 3 point contest and Crawford scores 30 in a game and everything is possible.

I probably exaggerated but when I watch it's not good. He has a rep for not caring about defense. I think that's the only reason he's not in the Vince, T-Mac, Pierce territory.

IMO Mike Montgomery gives Baron and Fish too much leeway. Thats a team made for a Larry Brown as he is now. Only thing they need direction in is patience.

trade #2 is the only one that i see having any chance of being accepted by the other team, & i'd make that trade in a heartbeat... Brevin Knight is the type of PG LB wants to lead his team, & Wallace is a better fit than either Craw or Ariza on this team as well.

Malik has 2 more years left on his deal, so i don't see POR doing it... & there's no way GS makes that J Rich trade either.

I would do all three without hesitation, your adding incredible defense at the three position, and a scorer that would go perfect alongside Marbury, and J-Rich can be traded, people have interest in him.....

Baron is too selfish thats why its not working in Golden State......Crawford is a turnover who take terrible shots, and doesn't play defense no thanks.....

Richardson is a 6'6 version of Nate, and Wallace and Paterson bring what we need some balls.....that team is fun to watch and has something...

Marbury/10 day contract who cares
Richardson
Wallace/Paterson
Frye/Lee
Curry/whoever

Do you guys honestly think Cha would do that deal? Wallace is the neares thing to AK47 outside of Utah, and BKnight is a perfect PG. Yeah he's injured a lot but he's worth the wait.

And yeah, if those deals went down I would fly to NY to watch them every fricking week. Marbs, JRich, Wallace and Curry on the same team, and Larry on the sidelines. That's a contender!
Some men see things as they are and ask why. I dream things that never were and ask why not?

wow, talk about hyperbole... Josh Howard is alot closer to AK47 than Gerald Wallace will ever be... right now Gerald Wallace is no closer to being AK47 than Luol Deng & Mikael Pietrus are... they all still need to develop their games, but they also have talent & potential no doubt.
