TRADE RUMORS:

PORTLAND-MILWAUKEE

It's not enticing at all for the blazers are offering not so's in this proposed trade:

POR sends Steve Blake, Brian Skinner and Ha-Seung Jin

for

MIL Jamaal Magloire

Any team in the league can offer better, but if the Bucks are really up to it, they may not have anything valuable in return. Maybe Steve Blake can provide enough role in the PG position, but Skinner and Jin are benchwarmers. Maybe Bucks coach Terry Stotts can think of something else to do with this guys if the deal pushes through.

ATLANTA-INDIANA

The reported trade between these teams is nearly done... but Hawks fans may not like it since they don't have a player in return that the teams needs if the trade pulls through. It's a future plan though.

ATL sends Al Harrington+John Edwards

for

IND trade exception+cash+future draft pick (1st)

Hawks hopefuls are gonna pray that the Pacers may end up entering the lottery instead and get another prospect...if the Pacers pick will end up in 10-14, the Hawks may have a chance to draft either of these guys:

7'3 Hasheem Thabeet of UCONN
6'11 Spence Hawes of WAS
7'0 Jason Smith of COLORADO

[kiwiboy]

Jamaal Sampson signs with Denver Nuggets......

[lunateec22]

Well what can i say, the deal involving Milwaukee and Portland pushed through... That's enough manpower in the middle for the Blazers and i think they're gonna make a stir out there in the Western COnference. Unless, of course, they lose their cool and whatevers.

Other big guys who are still available:
Drew Gooden
Melvin Ely
Chris Wilcox
Kelvin Cato
Lorenzen Wright
Scott Pollard
Reggie Evans

CLEVELAND
The Drew Gooden contract stalemate with the Cavaliers now seems to have frustrated both sides... Gooden's agent has asked a 6-year $60million contract for his client,similar to that of Nuggets' Nene but it seems that the Cavs are turning their heads now. They have set their eyes now on Reggie Evans and Lorenzen Wright.

NEW YORK
Again, Isaiah's been doing his "circus" after he offered Jared Jeffries $30million for 5 years. It is being reported that Quentin Richardson, Malik Rose, Maurice Taylor and Jerome James is on the trading block.
