I suppose Josh has an option, so I guess he would make a little bit of sense. I still wonder if we are overvaluing this whole thing by a lot.

could be. i mean the only reason we have Marion is because of Turkoglu's sudden change of heart. I love how it's portrayed as some sort of genius move by Donnie. i wonder what we would've gotten for Stack otherwise. possibly a much lesser player than Marion. trades fall thru or are trumped all the time. we almost traded Stack 4 Salmons last season. Bulls had a better offer. so we can want a star for Damp but we would most likely have to include J-Ho, Roddy, etc. and even that's probably not enough. it comes down to a team really wanting the $ savings desperately and matching up with our needs. Hawks are playing really well complicating things but maybe Joe Johnson's going to walk and we offer them some assets in a sign and trade. maybe our best case scenario is someone of his caliber.
