What would you guys think of the next trade?
Boston Celtics Trade Wally Szczerbiak, Theo Ratliff, Al Jefferson, Delonte West, Michael Olowokandi, Ryan Gomes and 2007 1st RD Pick Receive Devean George, DJ Mbenga, Pau Gasol and Mike Miller Dallas Mavericks Trade Austin Croshere, Devean George and DJ Mbenga Receive Wally Szczerbiak, Michael Olowokandi and Ryan Gomes Memphis Grizzlies Trade Pau Gasol and Mike Miller Receive -Theo Ratliff, Al Jefferson, Delonte West, Austin Croshere and Boston's 2007 1st RD Pick We get a good shooter and a promising young PF and a good thirth-string center. |

No, Georges defense on Kobe, DWhistle, PP, Marion, Ginobli, etc. is worth more than you get back in the trade. Not to mention that Benga has an upside which Candyman doesn't.

Candyman is better at this point with his experience, and Gomes brings more upside than Mbenga in my point of view. |

So a 6'7" swingman has more upside than possibly the most athletic (but raw) 7' in the league? IMO, MBenga has a long way to go, but his upside is far higher than Gomes -- even if he never reaches it. In fact, I think Avery should be getting MBenga more burn than he does.

gomes can play in the nba right now and be successful. Right now he is a much better player than devean george. Does mbenga possibly have a higher upside? I guess but the chances he reaches it are so small you cant not trade him based on those possibilites. I still wouldnt do this trade because i dont think its a good fit though.

The most athletic seven footer in the league right now is Seattle's Saer Sene, just for the record.
What I'm saying is that adding Wally and gomes brings us closer to a championship than sticking with Devean and DJ, because we get a viable benchplayer for the 4-spot (for many years to come) and one of the best shooters in the league in his prime, at a pretty cheap prise. |

You think Wally at 6'7" or Gomes at 6'7" is going to get burn at the 4? I might make this trade in the summer, but no way during the season. It takes too much time to learn the offense, and to me it would be a slight downgrade on the defensive end.

Hey, is there any way we can trade and get P-Pod back?

A very difficult to accomplish trade.
Too many players involved.
