Foye/Miller to the Wizards

Re: Foye/Miller to the Wizards

I don't like this trade for the Wiz. They basically secured the #5 playoff spot for the next five years and at best a 2nd round exit, for a guy like Curry who can really be something special for years to come.

wat

Curry is "something special for years to come"?

I'm not seeing that at all.

There are 3 types of players who would actually make us a contender:

1. A special Lebron/Howard/Kobe/Anthony Randolph type player of which there are none

2. An All Star level big man, of which we're a few spots too low to grab the only one

3. An All Star level PG, of which there may be one, but there are several pretenders

Again, even if Miller and Foye both fit horribly, we can let them go and gain 10 mil in cap space.

I think one of Evans or Jennings can be a great player, but not Curry or the PAC 10 guys.

Re: Foye/Miller to the Wizards

The new Minnesota management is off to a good start. They took a bad contract in Etan, but they will have FOUR first rounders on Thursday. The Wolves can go a long way in starting to rebuild around Jefferson in one draft.

this seemed like a good deal for both sides imo

Now Minn can package both picks 5 and 6 send to the Grizz and get Rubio..

They said they aren't gonna do that. They'd rather get two good players than gamble on Rubio. The good news for the people picking 7, 8 and 9 is that Minny will only pick 1 PG, so Flynn, Jennings and Holiday are going to fall to someone.

Re: Foye/Miller to the Wizards

Or trading 5 and 6 to move up to get Thabeet. Rumor around town is that the T-Wolves are infatuated with the idea of pairing Big Al with a defensive minded big man in Thabeet. If that happened, I'm sure Kevin Love would be out of town.

The idiots never should have traded Mayo.

Mayo and Roy...man, T-Wolves fans must really hate Kevin McHale.

Re: Foye/Miller to the Wizards

I don't think Thabeet gets past the fourth pick though.

I meant they'd trade up with Memphis to get Thabeet.

The Wolves are pretty adamant about not packaging their picks.

Cebby what are you thoughts?

Me likes...Miller is a sharpshooter and Foye emerged last year and if anything should become a serviceable backup to a Gil w/ a balky knee. Anything else he's able to give is huge plus.

#5 pick was actually something I was looking forward to seeing the Wiz do something with, and I was really liking a Ty Lawson pick; which is way too high. Regardless...this is a good trade and no risk involved for Washington. Etan was an inside presence long ago, but is health is a ?, Pecherov is IR fodder, and Songalia is really the only player in this deal that made any kind of impact.

highway robbery on the wizards part.

foye/miller and the 5.. for songaila,etan, and pecherov.

minnesota wtf?

...and McHale's hands aren't even on this one.

just rolls off the tounge so smooth doesnt it?

Re: Foye/Miller to the Wizards

Man.. I guess this trade is alright. I really wanted J Critt to be the backup guard. He was coming along nicely at the end of last year. Now he'll have to fight it out with Foye which I believe he'll still win it.

I still think it was a better deal on the table for EG and Abe to look at, but oh well I guess it'll be ok. Miller a good dude off the bench. Foye was rated good coming out of college. I'm just mad we lost that 5th pick

[Checmate101]

Re: Foye/Miller to the Wizards

After looking at it. With Miller on the court, will open it up for Gilber and Caron to get to the hoop. You can't leave Miller open and have him set his feet. Wet all day

I dont' think Ernie is done dealing though.

[ProfessaPackMan]

Re: Foye/Miller to the Wizards

Critt ain't gon be fighting for nothing because he good as gone this offseason.

Critt, Young, Blatche, Stevenson...hope one or two of ya'll got your bags packed just in case because ya'll might not be back.

[Checmate101]

Re: Foye/Miller to the Wizards

Young is not going anywhere. Flip and Sam I am loves him. Now Steezy might be gone, Like you said Critt might be gone to though. I think Ernie give Blathce one more chance.
