Monta is just as capable as Harris. Dont you think Monta can give us 25ppg.

We should use that to our advantage and package together a big contract (e.g. Jackson, Ellis, etc.) and ship them somewhere for a difference maker.

Find a super-star, call the GMs, start proposing some deals, find out who is shopping, find out who is questionable………….are the Blazers going to extend Aldridge now? How long will that take? Is that going to be like Roy’s extension and the delays that accompanied that?

Is Toronto willing to maybe let Bosh walk next year without getting something in return this year?

Is David West a part of the future of the Hornets? What about all of the front line help they seem to be pursuing?

Are Al Jefferson and Rudy Gay a part of their respective teams’ futures? Do the Grizzlies have enough young talent now to maybe shop Rudy Gay?

We should be asking ourselves this.

This is how those blockbuster deals get started.

Here is a deal that works well:

Monta Ellis and Anthony Randolph for Devin Harris and Brook Lopez.

Here’s who we start in 09-10:

1. Harris
2. Jackson
3. Maggette
4. Lopez
5. Biedrins

New Jersey would never make that deal because they’re short at the 5 where Lopez plays…….but you never know.

Even though Lopez is not really a 4……a front line with him and Biedrins should just about grab every single rebound there is.

If Randolph is as “GREAT” as Warrior fans think he is…….then GMs around the league should think he’s “GREAT” too, right?

That means that other GMs should offer some pretty good talent for AR.

You’re telling me we can’t win 50 games with Devin Harris at 25ppg and 6apg, a front line of Biedrins and Lopez and young bench play from Curry, Wright and Morrow?

We would easily improve our team with that deal.

New Jersey would probably get worse though……they’re short pretty much everywhere, including 2, 3 and 5.

Rose is the 4th quarter go to guy, Rose is the difference maker, Rose is the winner.

Anthony Randolph for Derrick Rose any day of the week and twice on Sundays.

Anthony Randolph for the folllowing people any day of the week and twice on Sundays:

1. Carmello Anthony
2. Pau Gasol
3. David West
4. LaMarcus Aldridge
5. Yao Ming
6. Kevin Durant
7. Dwight Howard
8. Tim Duncan
9. Combination of Brook Lopez and Devin Harris (Stephen Jackson included in this deal)
10. Al Jefferson
11. Rudy Gay

Not for Boozer or Stoudemire……..but any guy on that list above, I wouldnt even hesitate for 1/2 of 1 second to make the deal.

I like Beasley a lot. Granted I havent see Beasley A LOT, but the few games I saw last year. I thought he stood out.

I would still go with AR because I think he is better defensively. Also I think AR has a higher ceiling.
