If it is the Rockets pick or a lottery protected pick then it is a good deal for New Jersey. If it is top 3 protected, then it makes more sense for Portland.

Honest question, how is this at all any good for New Jersey.

Gerald Wallace is in the last years of his career, and NJ still gave up a first rounder regardless of the protection.

If Gerald stays, he's old as ****.
If he goes, NJ gets cap space but lose out on that first rounder.

Might as well have kept Okur who is expiring at the end of the year and hold onto your draft picks for loaded drafts to come.

Gerald ain't even 30 yet.

That would certainly throw a wrench in Minny and/or NJ's plans..

I'm still expecting Orlando to try to get Steven Jackson from GSW at some point today for some reason.

Can't trade for a player then trade him again that soon

If Nate gets let go he'll be back next season and will have a lot of options.

As far as the Butler/Allen dilemma, it doesn't matter because in order for a trade like this to happen it has to include Korver and Hamilton for financial purposes.

The Russian sure has a funny way of persuasion.

Both teams should slap themselves for that trade

2 cripples(one of which who probably won't at all this year) and a protected 1st rd pick that we would only get if the Rockets make the playoffs for Gerald Wallace and his expiring contract. Sooooo why exactly should we slap ourselves again? LOL

You do know we still have our OWN first rd pick right?

I'll be pretty shocked if Deron Williams isn't in a Mavs uniform next year.

Despite the fact that he hasn't given ANY indication that he doesn't like it here AND that he's actually looking forward to the Brooklyn move(his words not mine).

So why exactly would you be shocked again?

Re: Official POST-LOCKOUT Player Movement Thread (Trades, FAs, etc)

You had Okur already expiring though Pack...

Gerald ain't even 30 yet.

Look at how much mileage his body has been through bro...

I didn't really mean literal age...

Look at his production

New Jersey knows that if they don't improve Williams will leave in the offseason. So they are trying to add talent in an effort to pleasde him and convince him to stay. If the pick is lottrey protected, then they will likely keep the pick this year.

If this was the Rockets pick for Wallace then the Nets got a steal.

I'm not saying I agree with it, but I understand what they are trying to do.

[PlusTheHarm]

Not suggesting the blame should be placed on Nate, just sounded llike earlier there was a chance they'd flip one or the other. But if they're gonna blow this up, guess one would figure he stays ... see how much they can move.

We have 4 first round picks this year. All besides the Nets own are at least top 7 protected. Houston's is top 14 protected, the ones from GSW and Utah are the top 7 protected picks.

Yep, have to wait two months.

3 players for Ray Allen, and you wouldn't think twice?

I quit.

You should keep all 4 bro. The drafts are going to be ripe...

No need to take on Wallace for no reason at all... he's not going to help you out one bit.

Just let Okur walk away and get his cap space.

Williams doesn't get paid that much at all.

Re: Official POST-LOCKOUT Player Movement Thread (Trades, FAs, etc)

The 1st rounder is Top 3 Protected like I said it would be lol
