How many peeps here would have went on a 2hr killing spree before being shot down by authorities over this trade if it went down?

where did u hear this almost happened? all i heard was that DEN offered Kleiza for Lee & the Knicks declined... i'm sure that kinda stuff happens all the time.

i think this thread needs more cowbell.

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

It was on realgm and the article suggested that it was Denver that shot the deal down. That would have been a dumb trade on par with the Jeffries signing. Klieza can play but his game is pretty much the same as DG. If we were going to trade for Klieza, then why draft DG. I am glad this deal fell apart.

Just Lee for Kleiza? Can't see that to our benefit at all.

What if it was Lee+Jeffries for Kleiza+Atkins+Hunter?

I tried to see if Curry could be dumped on Denver but they just can't match a 2010 swap. Even Lee+Curry for Kleiza+Hunter+Atkins doesn't work and until you throw in JR Smith as well and would Denver do that and we wouldn't have the roster spots to do it. Lee+Curry for Kleiza+Hunter+Atkins+3M Cash comes close but again why would Denver spend so much just to get Lee?

So I just don't get this at all. Maybe it's an old remnant from a rumor prior to the Camby and Zach trades....

Absolutely awful deal. But I'm pretty sure the early reports were that WE rejected it.

DLee is worth more than just Kleiza. I also question why Denver would do this. Unless they are unloading Nene and/or KMart, I don't understand why they would want DLee. I don't want any part of Nene. He is both fragile in the head and body. KMart would be fun since we have Fugazy.

There is always more to the situation than is printed in the papers.
I just hope that people will like me

Karl didn't want to part with Kleiza. That doesn't mean the offer wasn't Kleiza and a #1 for Lee. They just decided to keep Kleiza. They didn't reject Lee. Some of you are looking for drama where none exists.
lol @ being BANNED by Martin since 11/07/10 (for asking if Mr. Earl had a point). Really, Martin? C'mon. This is the internet. I've seen much worse on this site. By Earl himself. Drop the hypocrisy.

Kleiza and a top 20 #1 pick --- now that gets a little closer.

JR Smith and a top 20 #1 pick --- I have to do the deal.
