Deal has changed!

Now it looks like Lakers are getting Wallace and Pryz with Artest coming to Portland.

Hehehe....

Via The Godfather

"Just got off the phone with an NBA source who says his team believes the Wallace-to-Portland deal is "done." Supposedly, Batum not involved in the proposed Wallace trad"

 

[PtldPlatypus]

Allegedly a done deal, according to http://www.fanfeedr.com/nba/2011/02/23/gerald-wallace-traded-to-portland-pryzbilla-sent-charlotte

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

I hope DJ is involved. Wallace injury history makes me worry.

 

[jaspitzer]

So i did the trade in trade machine, camby/miller for diop/augustine/wallace. The Hollinger report says blazers lose 10 games and charlotte win 4 games.....

This is from jaynes

Ehhhh, if it's got Miller & Camby involved... Not so sure, even if Augustin is involved...

Camby would be the dealbreaker for me, only because that leaves Portland without a decent center. I like Augustin's potential, and it would be worth Miller, IMO.

 

[hasoos]

You know a lot of Blazers have talents, but none of them have the ability to conduct a post game interview with a lisp!

From Bobcats forum "insider"

This sounds like the most realistic possibility.

Bobcats are in 9th and going no where. Walalce makes 9 mil this year and even more next year. His shooting percentage is way down, his rebounds #s are down and his scoring is down. Bascially it looks like Wallace has hit his peak and started his slow decline while his salary continues to rise next year.

Bobcats trade him for an expiring and draft picks and cash. I don't think you can expect more from him than that.

Well, it's from Kurt Helin of ProBasketballTalk. Are you saying Jaynes was his source, or that Jaynes already linked to his report?

 

[santeesioux]

Some guy on the Suns realgm board said we were going to turn around and offer Batum/Oden/Miller/picks to the Hornets for CP3 lol.

Who is the other player along with Przy?

Please be Marks.

 

[hasoos]

Who is the other player along with Przy?

The link to the NBC story said it was Pryz and cash considerations. No other player involved.

It said "other players" I thought.

we probably already did

 

[MIXUM]

our new lineup

miller/wes/batum/crash/la

roy. rudy, batum, camby, cunningham

thats pretty solid

That doesn't work under the CBA.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

Who is the other player along with Przy?

Well it said player so we know it's not Babbitt.

 

[The Professional Fan]

That doesn't work under the CBA.

Just re-read it. Definitely says "other players" - no specification as to who.

 

[MIXUM]

please be armon johnson or luke babbit

 

[alex42083]

Thought Quick said we were "standing pat"? haha..

 

[PapaG]

That doesn't work under the CBA.

Adding in a first-round pick does, though.

 

[maxiep]

So, if this deal is true, do we have a pre-arranged agreement to re-sign Joel after 30 days? He heads to Brookfield for some time with the wife and joins us in time for the stretch run.

 

[RoyToy]

Waiting for the tweet in 43min that says the teams can't agree on the final piece to the trade.

 

[maxiep]

Adding in a first-round pick does, though.

A pick has no financial value.

 

[tlongII]

I hope it's true. It would be awesome!

 

[hasoos]

That doesn't work under the CBA.

Are you sure about that? Pryzbilla plus Bayless trade exception I think makes it fairly close. Throw in some cash considerations and it might make it done.
