Newest And Best Artest/Al Rumor I Have Seen

[1524]

It would be a three way trade...

MINNY Get:

Ron Artest

ATL Gets:

Marko Jaric(BK type PG)

Auston Croshere(Free Agent this summer...more cap to work with)

1st Round Pick(Minny)(Would love to have it)

IND Get:

Al Harrington

I would be all over this deal

Jaric/Lue/Ivey

Johnson/Stoudamire

Smith/Childress

Croshere/Williams

Pachulia/Edwards

Im not to sure that team wouldnt be able to win this year. Sure we wouldnt score as much without Al, but scoring hasnt been an issue with us this year. We would be a much more physical team with a frontcourt of Smoove/Croshere/ZaZa.

Sorry if posted somewhere already but I didnt see it.

Sorry RED but this deal is awful. Croshere's contract does not end this year. That pic won't be that high either and Jaric's contract is long.

[1524]

I'm not worried about Jaric's contract being long..we are building a team for the future!!! Its not a monstorous deal dollar wise either.

[WraithSentinel]

I like this deal. Hawks get another 1st. Making their top-4 pick easier. They can take one of the talented Bigs in the draft with the top-4 pick. Then use the Minn pick and let say Smoove to move up and take Rondo. Hawks will have good depth at PG.

PG-Jaric/Rondo/Lue

SG-JJ/Salim

SF-Marvin/Chill

PF-Nene/Aldridge

C-Zaza/Edwards/Batista

Now that would be a very good team and playoff contender next year.

no to trading smoove..

i would like that trade but i'd have to know more about croshere's contract.

[exodus]

This is the worst trade rumor that I have seen. The thing the Hawks need the most is a big man who can play D. This deal will prevent them from getting one since it will take up almost all of their free cap space.

This came off of RealGM. Deal gives us a pg and center?

What do you think?

Or if Milwaukee does not want Harrington,

Indy trades Artest

Indy receives Harrington

Atlanta trades Harrington

Atlanta receives Williams and Gadzuric

Milwaukee trades Williams and Gadzuric

Milwaukee receives Artest

I talked to some Bucks fans earlier in the year about Gadz for Harrington and they said no way.

Indy is going to send Artest out west. They won't trade him to an eastern team and have Artest kick their butts.
