Minnesota's on the phone...

Once I noticed the poll wasn't public I found the courage to vote yes.

[WTFchris]

Why would Minny do this deal?

They have Foye and McCants, plus Telfair. They'd have Love up front and that's it.

[MoTown]

It's not about Minnesota doing the deal. It's about Joe doing the deal.

Plus McHale is still the GM. Why wouldn't he do it?

[Glenn]

McHale got demoted, he's just the coach now, but you're right about the first part.

[MoTown]

I thought he was still in charge of personnel. I guess I need to get a better grasp on "my" team.

[gusman]

I would trade stuckey for OJ mayo straight up, no wait, I would want ketchup too.

[WTFchris]

It depends on the chances of getting other big men. Does he think he can get Boozer? I don't, but if so he's a better post player than Al. Can he move RIP and Max for Amare? Will Bosh sign here?

If you don't know you can get a better big man, then I would probably do it.

[Hermy]

Holy hell yes. Jesus.

[WTFchris]

Well, my point is that if you call up Kerr and he'll do RIP/Max for Amare...and you call up Bosh and he says he's leaning towards coming...maybe you pass on that deal. Maybe you just pass if you can get Amare.

Certainly other deals would keep you from doing this one.

[Zekyl]

You definitely pass if you can get Amare. They're both down low post players. You'd keep Stuckey and trade for Amare, Sheed pulls his man up top because he's allergic to the rim or some shit like that and Amare dominates down low. I'd rather have a starting lineup of Stuckey, AI, Prince, Amare, Sheed than AI, Rip, Prince, Jefferson, Sheed.
