I've been reading over the last few days the Bulls are looking to move guards Hughes & Sefolosha & forward Tyrus Thomas.

Cavs are possibly looking to move Wally (which is no suprise).

Clippers willing to give up Baron Davis for the right trade.

Bobcats looking to move Gerald Wallace, which has been discussed since to opening of the season. Bobcats also signed Juwan Howard for the remainder of the season.

I like that Stuckey has been getting more minutes, that's a real upside. But since the AI trade the chemistry has been lacking, but still very early in the season and I see the Pistons still being a very strong contender in the east behind Boston & Cleveland.

Clippers are not even thinking about moving Baron Davis, but they are looking to move Chris Kaman.

With one of the worst records in the NBA more than likely they will be sellers than buyers if the losing continues. I've read on a few message boards that it's likely if the right trade comes along that they will move Davis, but it's just rumors. Kaman is likely the man that's out in L.A.

If he buys into there concept they have a good chance, but that is highly unlikely that he will in my opinion.

Grizzlies sign Darius Miles, in my opinion not really a good move. I believe he still has to serve a suspension before he can suit up for Memphis.

Here is a trade that would be great for both parties.

Timberwolves and Cavs.

I really think the Wolves NEED to make a move. This trade might not help them this season as far as wins go, but would probably help with their poor ticket sales.

What better way to boost ticket sales then to bring back one of the franchise's best players in Wally Szcerzbiak? Here is the deal I purpose:

Wolves get:
-Wally Szcerzbiak
-Ben Wallace

Cavs get:
-Rashad McCants
-One of those stock-piled draft picks the Wolve have
-Calvin Booth

I think it would be a great trade for both sides. The Cavs can get a young player in McCants who still has potential, but needs a change of address I think to prove his worth. They would also get a draft pick. Both of those I would think would help Lebron out.

What do you think?

The Cav's aren't going to trade Wally unless it's for an All-Star like Antwaan Jamison or Vince Carter to name a few that their watching. The way that they're clicking, they certantly aren't looking to make a move unless it's for someone who can help them win now, especially with LeBron's contract situation. Besides, the contracts there don't come near to matching. Ben and Wally are both 13 mil/yr. It would really benefit the T Wolves as they would get cap room this year and a defensive presance, but it makes no sense from a Cav's standpoint

The contracts are much closer than you think. Booth has a huge contract. I'm not saying it is going to happen, but it certainly makes more sense then the way you put it.

No way the Cavs would do that. They want a title this year, and they wouldn't trade their 2 top role players for Rashad McCants, a draft pick, and a scrub.

Booth is making 1.5 Million this season, McCants is making around 2.6 Million this season.

Wallace is making 14.5 Million this season. Wally is making 13 Million this season.

The salary's are no where near close in any sense of the meaning.

And you're right, getting two bench warmers from a 3-23 Timberwolves team makes a lot more since then getting a star from a rebuilding team (like the Lakers did with Pau) rolleyes.gif
