Ric Buscher Reports On Wallace And Odom

[montgod]

The interview is OLD and based on Buscher's opinion!! Someone else should actually listen to it before assuming any of the info is true. Once you do, you will be like... that was a pointless interview.

Then again... I guess we have time to kill while we wait for a move to happen.

As much as I would like Odom, I just don't see how he would take the MLE.

[SenorSpur]

Why would Odom take the MLE from us? He is worth much more than that. Why would LA pick Wallace over Odom? None of this makes sense.

Perfect question. I just don't know where he's going to get that type of jack.

Somehow I just can't see Odom on the Spurs.

This is it. Rasheeds agent is using the hype as leverage.and if he wants to win be taking less to do it. Or else get money and be happy with mediocrity. Hopefully the former is the case.

hopefully.

Actually, it's not that old...he posted some bull like this on his Twitter too...but like I said...Bucher's an idiot...pay attention to Broussard...he's a lot more NBA intelligent...

yeah all I ever hear is how much he likes LA and beaches, and they can offer him as much as anyone, and they just won the Championship with him. why mess with a winning formula?

Bucher is complaining because he hasn't been able to go to the beach in 5 days. What has he been doing, because wherever he's getting his information they are playing a monumental joke on him.

It is old because he was talking about Gordon and Charlie V. visiting Detroit that day when we all already know that they signed on. It's nothing new... just more speculation before anything really began.

Exactly, the Lakers priority this off-season will be to maintain themselves intact.

Ric is an idiot. He only discloses his inside info after everyone else does. Anything else he says is just speculation or proclamations. He also said Z-bo was untradable.

[baseline bum]

Ric bucher is pulling stuff out of his ass now. Why would the lakers want wallace over Odom? They already have two big men in Gasol and Bynum. They need Odom's versatility. Their big men would be to slow. Athletic teams would destroy them.

If they let Odom and Ariza walk and sign Wallace they'd be looking at about an $80 million payroll as opposed to the $90 million one they'd have with Odom and Ariza.

Ric is an idiot, but you can't get on him about saying Randolph was untradeable. Logic goes out the window when the Grizzlies get involved.

The article may be old, but he still feels that way..he posted it a few days ago on his Twitter.

Agreed but the point is Bucher is never right. Anytime he says something, I'm going to think the opposite.

In that case, the Spurs get Wallace and the Lakers get Odom back.

[Heath Ledger]

Rasheed ain't going to LA...Rasheed is going to Boston or SA, book it. It's all about driving up the price, but neither team can pay more than the MLE, so it doesn't matter. Boston is bringing back House, Davis, and probably Powe...and they want to bring Marbury back too..they won't have the money to pay more than the MLE, and we all know SA doesn't have the money either...he'll go somewhere for the MLE....LA will lose Ariza and keep Odom...and San Antonio will have a good shot at knocking them off, but it will still be tough as .

Still fantasizing bout Sheed going to San Antonio. LOL ain't happening cowboy.

[rayray2k8]

That makes zero sense... Nobody i buying what this idiot is saying.

[rjv]

The crap with Ariza is a smokescreen to me. He'd re-sign with them IF they up their offer...which they might. If they can get Sheed to come over for the MLE, then they could resign Ariza for more.

Ariza has never been through negotiations like this and I imagine that he's taking way too personally. He'll calm down and realize that his 1 Good season / Not Great season had a lot to do with the system he played in . Don't get crazy with the $$ right now. Take your raise, keep improving your game and the $$ will come.

Smart move by the Lakers to let him know they aren't going to be bullied in to a stupid offer. Maybe 6 mill a year for 4 years with the 4th as a player option.

unless ariza pulls a stephen jackson

[ginobilized]

The only perspective that makes sense on the Wallace to the Lakers conjecture is that the Lakers know Sheed and the Spurs would be a formidable combo. It'd be a preemptive strike and save them some money...it's probably just a bunch of crap though.

You do remember when he begged your crappy Pistons to trade him to SA last year, don't you? And how he's said he wants to play in warmer weather? And how he and Pop are very close...but yeah..he'd never play here for the same amount of money that he would get in Boston, even when he wanted to play here last year...no way...
