Let's make a deal
With the trading deadline a little more than a month away, talks between teams seem to be heating up. An NBA source said a three-team trade is in the works that would include Oklahoma City sending guard Earl Watson to Charlotte, Dallas sending center DeSagana Diop to Charlotte, and Charlotte guard Raymond Felton going to Dallas. The source added that Milwaukee might be on the verge of a deal, too, as several teams have shown interest in ex-Connecticut star forward Charlie Villanueva and guard Ramon Sessions.

Oklahoma City gets nothing huh? Those idiots of a front office will never succeed in getting a reasonable franchise.

So will Raymond be the official backup to Kidd, or Barea? Or is he the undersized quickfire shooting guard, a role currently taken by Jet?

I like the trade idea but what exactly is Felton's role?

[monosylab1k]

Might as well work J-Ho and G-Force into the deal while they're at it.

This trade hardly counts as a real trade unless The Cancer is gone.

LOL, I was thinking Felton Spencer...

Felton has played SG before. I think over-reliance on JJ is a problem.

I like this trade b/c Felton is a quality player and getting rid of Diop and his contract is an automatic plus.

I think the Mavs and Jason Kidd are going to part ways, so Felton will be the future in Dallas.

Small question: Why did Dallas give Diop the contract he got?

No one can answer that one...

:greedy

keep dreaming.

Felton will be the next PG most likely, as well as the starter at 2 until Kidd is here. Bobcats seem to like Augustin a little better as a PG and I don't blame them. Felton has yet to learn how to run a team, maybe he can learn smth in Dallas from Kidd.

Damn Larry Brown is barely 5 minutes in Charlotte and already wants to trade half the team.

Trade talks are "dormant" so I'm guessing the whole thing has gone to shit.

[monosylab1k]

Getting Felton, May, & Mohammed for Diop was just too good to be true.

^they said the same thing before the Kidd trade last year.
