Pro Quality. Fan Perspective.
Around SBN: Has Kentucky Improved Since the Non-Conference Season?

Trade Winds are a Blowin'

Just popped in from the first day of summer camp to find this blockbuster rumor.  What strikes me isn't the deal, but the way the authors treat the JO-to-the-Celts piece as an afterthought.  The main deal -- KG to LA, Bynum & Odom to Indy, unnamed bodies to Minny -- is deemed workable only if a fourth team gets involved, with no mention of the fourth team.  It wasn't until I scrolled down and saw the link to Ford's Insider that I noticed the "oh yeah, the 4th geam would be Boston. They'd get JO."  WOW! That's a rather important "oh, by the way..."  

If this is true, Wally and his contract must be going back to Minnesota, but who is going with them? Has Danny traded the one the game's best young power forward so that Paul Pierce can make a run with JO?  With Chauncy opting out, Sheed on the block, the Spurs dominating the Cavs, and the general dearth of quality in the East, will teams (Celts) take on huge contracts to make one brief run?

Love this stuff.  Hurry back Cornrows.

Oh what could've been
and might still be. On my first reading I thought JO was going to the Lakers. I made it through the article and thought, wait a minute, who'd the C's get. The C's would be getting a bitter JO if he isn't shipped to LA. This should be a fun week.

Call me crazy (and you know I am)
But this whole deal smacks of appeasing Kobe (something the Lakers don't have to do) and appeasing KG (which the wolves don't have to do). I don't know that any of these teams will want to gut their franchise to get a single guy. Especially with the age of KG and the injury history of JO.
When the tough get going the going gets Cornrows.
