Which deal is better for Shaq? Quote from the Miami Herald
"At 7-1, 300-plus pounds, O'Neal is the definition of above and beyond. But no one is officially proclaiming the Heat the frontrunner. One NBA front-office executive even said a three-team trade involving the Lakers, Pacers and Mavericks could be in the works, leaving the Heat out completely."
Miami's offer of Lamar Odom, Brian Grant, and Caron Butler (that's a maybe...Miami wants to give the Lakers Malik Allen) OR 3-team trade involving Dallas, Indiana, and the Lakers Dallas trades Michael Finley, Antoine Walker, Christian Laettner, Tony Delk, and the rights to P-Pod Dallas receives Shaq and Austin Croshere Indiana trades Al Harrington, Scott Pollard, and Austin Croshere Indiana receives Micheal Finley and Tony Delk Lakers trade Shaq Lakers receive Al Harrington, Antoine Walker, Christian Laettner, Scott Pollard, and the rights to P-Pod Why Dallas does it? Shaq Why Indiana does it? They are desperately looking for an outside shooter. Although Finley's contract is bad...he's still productive. They get rid of 2 terrible contracts in Croshere and Pollard. Al Harrington is nice...but they have Jermaine O'Neal as their PF. Why Lakers does it? Ok...let's compare... Odom vs Harrington (Give me Harrington...he's younger, bigger, and doesn't have a drug problem like Odom) Grant vs Walker and Laettner (Walker and Laettner in a land-slide...their contracts come off the books after this season...plus I believe they're better talent-wise than Grant) Butler vs Pollard and the rights to P-Pod (Butler gets the edge talent-wise...but Pollard and P-Pod fill a bigger need...the center position) Your thoughts? |

I would rather just do the trade with Pacers.

I like both ideas. Three-way or two way it doesn't matter. P-Pod may be great though (eventually)

PPod won't be anything.
I'd do this in a second. We trade four for two, which gets our roster to a managable place. AND We get rid of Walker AND We get rid of Michael Finley who has years left on his contract and is getting old fast AND Croshere ain't a bad player. Oh and we'd get Shaq for a couple of years. |

Harrington for Stephen Jackson killed that idea.
