Will T-MAC be on the block?

[jayC]

The magic sit at 1-10 with really no sign of improvement. The former coach of the year doc rivers is out the door, replaced by one of his assistants. While Gabriel has seen Shaq leave, traded ben wallace and Chucky Attkins for the often injured hill. Trade T-Mac's best friend on the team Miller for Drew Gooden. If the magic continue to struggle wil T-Mac be on the block? I think the answer is an emphatic yes. They have no way to improve themselves other then through trades.

Of course their is the often mentioned Kobe for T-Mac trade but lets face it that will never happen. T-Mac to the Grizzlies the only player that orlando would perhaps want is Paul Gasol and you don't trade big for small. While the mavericks have many assets?

Grant Hill and Tracy McGrady for Walker and Finley. Grant Hill will never play again and he has a huge deal. Walker has just two years remaining on his deal. T-Mac has expressed his interest in winning a championship numerous times. T-Mac and Dirk nice ring to it doesn't it. Finley is a good 2 guard but not a superstar like T-Mac. McGrady gets to the line and is a huge 2 guard at 6ft 8 inches and has no problems with his ball handling skills like Finley. Jamison has expressed the difficulties in being a bench player. A supersuperstar for two good players takes you along way in this league. This deal also forces Nelson to play Bradley and Fortson

I doubt seriously they will ever trade T-Mac.

[jmiles65]

I dont see them trading him, but I'd do it.

If they let Oneal go to the Lakers, T-mac could be gone too.

You can also substitute Jamison for Walker in that trade after Dec 20th

[Jamisonite]

NO way portland would do that deal.

I agree, but thats probably the best deal they could get considering they aren't going to get fair trade value on the players because of their personalities.

[kingrex]

I don't see this ever happening.

That's some creative thinking right there. Talentwise, the mavs would be crazy. The legititmate superstars would be T-Mac and Dirk. Having Nash, Wallace and Walker fill out the first five would be crazy.

[Dirkenstien]

The only way Orlando would even half way consider trading McGrady is if they were overly concerned about him not coming back after his contract is over and even then it would be extremely difficult for them to convince themselves to part ways with their franchise player.
