Pistons might get Calderon....

please!!!!!!!!

 

[run.lmc]

Wow at the Grizzlies

 

[bhzmafia14]

I have to wait and see who we officially get first. The trade isn't complete.

I already told you on Twitter mike. I like Ed Davis and the front office does too. But, I need to see if we get any picks and/or a 3rd team is involved.

Amare for Josh Smith

View media item 243347

An injury prone, declining player on an uninsured max contract who still has 2 years & $44 mil left on his deal after this season?

Can't imagine Ferry making that deal. Maybe if STAT was only making 7-8 mil or something.

Cope gets buckets, doe

Calderon is going to a third team - Dallas, Detroit, or a few others - in exchange for a SF.

I'm still baffled that Memphis would want to give up Rudy for Ed Davis and Tayshaun Prince/Vince ******g Carter. I understand all the tax ramifications for keeping Rudy, but they are a near-elite team - even if you replace him with a servicable SF and a decent role-player PF off the bench, who's to say the delicate chemistry would stay around? What if such a move shatters whatever balance? It's not just about numbers and such...

 

[CP1708]

Prince to the Grizz?

 

[senorroboto2k5]

I saw Boston mentioned as Calderon's destination. Boston sure could use him, but I don't think they have what Memphis is searching for (a SF - and it won't be Paul Pierce or Jeff Green). Maybe Courtney Lee as a small SF?

Tayshaun is decent. But I just think Memphis is looking too much to replicate the Shane Battier thing with this move - "get an old vet SF who's known to play D and this team will upset the Spurs!"

 

[senorroboto2k5]

Also.

Tony Allen‏@aa000G9

naaaaawwww b

 

[yeeupp]

Toronto Raptors

C -
Bargnani
Derozan
Gay
Lowry

not bad

 

[buc em]

Tayshaun Prince finally free from Detroit three years too late? That defense with Tony Allen and Tayshaun though....eeeeek.

 

[Mound Raised]

Wow at the Grizzlies

Wow is right....gotta see how this pans out

 

[senorroboto2k5]

Boston is in the Jose Calderon Sweepstakes because they'd be offering Paul Pierce!??

That would defeat the whole purpose of acquiring Jose Calderon.

Toronto Raptors

C -
Bargnani
Derozan
Gay
Lowry

not bad

Gay and Derozan are almost the same player from an overall standpoint. Having 2 of them is not going to work. The lineup is cool when you look position by position but it's gonna look ugly.

 

[bhzmafia14]

I think a deal will go down with Detroit

 

[mjgreatxii]

this trade is terrriblllee for the grizz man straight terrible

 

[senorroboto2k5]

Marc Stein‏@ESPNSteinLine

ESPN sources say Pistons poised to send both Tayshaun Prince and Austin Daye to Grizzlies to acquire Jose Calderon as part of Rudy Gay deal

 

[executive76]

KG has a no trade clause.

 

[Coupé It]

Griz are a bunch of idiots.

 

[ill steelo]

Toronto Raptors

C -
Bargnani
Derozan
Gay
Lowry

not bad

6-8 seed. 1st round exit. Capped out for the next few years too with Rudy, Bargs, & Derozan's extension.

 

[noblekane]

KG has a no trade clause.

he can waive it though

and i just dont want paul pierce anywhere near the west unless its to the lakers
