Utah and Miami have recruited Wiz to be 3rd team in Boozer talks. Wash would get cap relief out of it. Beasley not involved, source says.
Adrian Wojnarowski. Cap relief? We don't need more cap relief. Picks picks picks!
UPDATE: Woj quotes an executive saying this three-way deal is going nowhere. Oh well.

Chad Ford tweet
Heat being awfully protective of 2 mid first round picks. They’re trying to build a title contender. Those picks won’t get minutes.
Bullets Forever - where "Dagger ! " happens......
And from Woj at Yahoo - he tweeted.... twittered..... twitted?

isn't that the same quote as the title of this tread?

I like Chalmers
Good young PG, with some defensive skills…. on a very cheap contract. (I wanted the Wiz to draft Chalmers in the 2nd round that year… either he or Kyle Weaver)
Bullets Forever - where "Dagger ! " happens......
I'm not too impressed.
I don’t like taking on young guys who aren’t very good just for the sake of taking on young guys. Lets get some talent please.

Sources close to the situation tell ESPN.com that all three teams have reached agreement on deal to send T-Mac to New York

So much for our fantasy trades involving the Knicks
by Palace of Good Play's Golden Toilet on Feb 18, 2010 1:15 PM EST up reply actions
The deal
T-Mac and Sergio Rodriguez to NYK; Kev Martin/Jared Jeffries/swap of 2011 first with Knicks and 2012 first from Knicks to Houston and Kings get Carl Landry, Joey Dorsey and Larry Hughes’ expiring contract.

Yeah well.... we can still offer to take Eddy Curry off their hands.....
Bullets Forever - where "Dagger ! " happens......
For what?
Galinari and their 2014 and 2016 first rounder? Knicks’ cupboard is bare.

I should have read my own post
I didn’t realize that Hill wasn’t part of the deal. Knicks still have two young forwards they can give up. But do they need more cap space?
by Palace of Good Play's Golden Toilet on Feb 18, 2010 1:31 PM EST up reply actions
Now they're saying Hill is also going to Houston
by Palace of Good Play's Golden Toilet on Feb 18, 2010 1:35 PM EST up reply actions
How did they get away with that?
They downgraded Landry for a guy who is still pretty talented and got Kevin Martin as a throw in

It's infuriating
There’s no reason Wiz shouldn’t have been able to receive a similar deal.
by Palace of Good Play's Golden Toilet on Feb 18, 2010 1:42 PM EST up reply actions
I was going to write that
But I guess NY wanted McGrady. The Wizards had similar expirings and talent, but not McGrady.
Ernie is the anti Morey
do you think he thought for a second to pick up the phone and call the knicks and say he’ll give them the cap relief they need for half the price … wiz have plenty of cap space for next year and likely wont be a major player, whats the hard of taking jeffries and getting a pick or hill out of the deal .
Twitter is kind of hilarious
Because ESPN left Hill out of their tweet by accident. Then every other sportswriter copied them claiming their own sources. Then ESPN corrected their tweet to add Hill, and every other sportswriter had to pretend they made the exact same mistake.

My idea
From twitter: Mike Miller and Udonis Haslem to Utah, Boozer to Miami, Kyle Korver, Mario Chalmers and 2010 1st (TOR pick) to DC.
You know you'll get devoured by Cheaney, Wallace, and Juwan Howard.
Yes please. Any way we can steal Beasley out of this though?
I know he’s kind of a knucklehead but at least he’s talented.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=laydODN6xVk
I'll settle for Chalmers....
I like Mario a lot (as a backup PG)
Bullets Forever - where "Dagger ! " happens......
That's really good, Mike
Good for all three teams.
I would hate to see Mike Miller go at this point
He seemed to be the glue that kept our team together last night against the T-Wolves.
by TheRealBigMike on Feb 18, 2010 1:27 PM EST up reply actions
I'm not sure 20 win teams need glue guys
But if he helps the young guys develop then he does have value
by Palace of Good Play's Golden Toilet on Feb 18, 2010 1:29 PM EST up reply actions
Miller doesn't strike me as a leader
A good, unselfish follower, but not a leader.
If we play the rest of the season like we did last night, will definitely win more than 20 games
I see absolutely no point in tanking on the season, Washington has absolutely no luck in the draft. Anything higher than a 5 or 6 pick is a pipe dream.
by TheRealBigMike on Feb 18, 2010 1:33 PM EST up reply actions
Chances that he is physically able to play more than half of the Wiz's remaining games?
50-50? If he plays more minutes he falls apart.
Realism
Is any trade scenario plausible other than one where we get pillaged except from the Pollin’s myopic 2009-2010 cap perspective realistic?
by morethesamewiz on Feb 18, 2010 1:37 PM EST via mobile up reply actions
I'm not sure there's anything left to pillage
Who do we have that teams would want other than for their expiring contracts? It’s not like we’re going to lose all our talent.
by Palace of Good Play's Golden Toilet on Feb 18, 2010 1:39 PM EST up reply actions
Maybe...
I can see Utah wanting Miller. They need someone who can play the 2
Funny how
We were screaming for Blair, Hickson and Chalmers on draft night as they slipped and slipped and slipped.
I Think They Mean This Year
So they probably should have said, “Salary relief.”
"It's OK for the Bullets to trade baskets, as long as they can score on their end." -- Words of wisdom from Phil Chenier
This trade works too…
Mike Miller + Beasley to Utah
Boozer + Mcguire to Miami
Chalmers + Haslem to Washington
Miami can throw in Draft pick(s) to Utah….
Washington gets a young PG and another $2.5 Million savings this year
Bullets Forever - where "Dagger ! " happens......
I'd want more for Miller
but I know that we won’t get it.
by Palace of Good Play's Golden Toilet on Feb 18, 2010 1:43 PM EST up reply actions
I personally wouldn't
we don’t need Ernie around here. lol

Of all of the people on this site,

Picks to us please
Enough with the savings. If anything those Miami picks should be coming to us.
I agree
except I’m not running the Wizards… I think Mike Miller (the number 1 three point shooter in the League) is worth at least a Mid-First round pick….
but I also know who is running the Wizards -and as a fan, I’d settle for Chalmers…
Bullets Forever - where "Dagger ! " happens......
He's probably not worth a first round pick.
He’s kind of old and not locked up after this year.

ny post reporting hill not part of deal
so knicks r 3 mil short of space to sign 2 max players
Z and McGuire
For Curry, Hill, and their 2014 first rounder.
Or For Curry, Hill, and Gallinari.
by Palace of Good Play's Golden Toilet on Feb 18, 2010 1:53 PM EST up reply actions
But Twitterati (Mannix, Stein, and Woj)
Still saying Hill is involved.

Just talked to one GM who says Miami calling to lay ground work for pre-draft and summer trades. Don’t seem like they’re doing deal now.

New Plan for NY Knicks trade
After they fail at getting any big name Free Agents to come to NY City….. (LeBron stays in Cleveland; Bosh goes to Dallas; Wade stays put in Miami; Nowitzki stays in Dallas)……….. The Knicks will need marquee players…
Then Washington swoops in with the following trade deal:
Arenas for Eddy Curry + Gallinari + picks
Bullets Forever - where "Dagger ! " happens......
I'd settle for Arenas for Curry
And pocket the cap savings because NY will be under the cap.
You know you'll get devoured by Cheaney, Wallace, and Juwan Howard.
Besides, the Knicks have no picks to trade

All we are accomplishing
is getting more frustrated by the lack of vision (forced or not) by the front office. There are so many ways to improve this team, but we’re not going to add 2010 salary.

A front office executive involved in Carlos Boozer three-way discussion with Miami, Utah and Wash: “It’s not going anywhere right now.”
by Palace of Good Play's Golden Toilet on Feb 18, 2010 2:04 PM EST reply actions
From ESPN
One version of the proposed deal would have sent Boozer and Washington’s Mike James to Miami, Haslem and Richardson to Utah from Miami and Miami’s Carlos Arroyo, Utah’s Kyrylo Fesenko and perhaps another player to the Wizards.
Yet one source said that Miami’s Michael Beasley and Mario Chalmers were also discussed along with Utah’s Kyle Korver.
Its always Roger Mason (Jr.) time!
I think they make exceptions for trades in progress.
Or something like that. So trades can be finalized as long as they’re initiated before the deadline.
The way EG explained it today
As long as you get the trade into the NBA office by 3, you’re good. It then goes on a docket and they spend the rest of the afternoon on calls completing trades.
You know you'll get devoured by Cheaney, Wallace, and Juwan Howard.
McGuire to Sac?
Kings to acquire Washington’s Dominic McGuire for a future second round pick and cash
