im tired of all the stoudemire/bosh talk…keep the team…give up crawford or bellinelli to get a big, but if not, keep the team as is

as Bosh big headed girlfriend stay away from it all good than. lol And keep AR too.

Our bigs would be Bosh and Wright? LOL

Crawford+Randolph+Wright+Morrow+Pick

Next year for Raps

Calderon-Banks
Crawford-Morrow-Graham
Randolph-Kapono-Graham
Bargnani-Wright
FA-Pick

None of those players will ever be as good as Chris Bosh, not even Anthony Randolph. Chris Bosh is one of those few players that can single-handedly bring his team to the playoffs (as he has for the last two seasons, his teammates have been absolute garbage). He’s a Top 15 player, at least.

If he does get traded here, we can be a perennial playoff team. And if we find a way to trade away Crawford, Jackson, or Maggette for depth/upgrades, we’d be able to go far into the playoffs.

This is how you build a team, folks. This is the big kahuna we need to build around. He’s not a 6’3" tweener guard, or a cocky jump-shooting rookie forward who can’t play within himself, or a tweener big man with a very limited offensive repertoire. Chris Bosh is the real deal. We may have passed up on Kevin Garnett, let’s not make the same mistake again.

We lose:

Our best player this season.
A player with the potential to be as good as Bosh.
Our only solid big man off the bench.
The best shooter on a trigger-happy team.

We get:
1 all-star for 1 year.
Kelenna Azubuike starting at PF, backed up by Corey Maggette.

no thank you, folks.

I want to atleast see how THIS team plays first before we destroy it. I say wait until this summer and try and make a deal then if things dont look promising. This trade reduces are bigs which were already short handed with.

I wouldn’t be too bummed if this went down. that’s a LOT to give up for Bosh though. he’s good, I don’t know if he’s that good though.

+ we’ll botch re-signing him.

Fact: The team that gets the best player of the deal in the trade always comes out ahead.

I dare anyone to prove me otherwise.

In case you haven’ t heard, the Raptors traded Jermaine O’Neal to the Heat for Shawn Marion.

The Raptors have the complete team now and are done with trades.

Put Tom Abdenour at SG and Nelly at PF.

but man its a hard decision…..if we’re patient…. in 3 years monta, randolph, biedrins could be pretty amazing….

but then again its never safe to ‘wait for future’…. u never know when some1s gonna pull a sprewell and forces you to blow it up (extreme example)

Biedrins + Randolph together is alot better then Bosh. Basically because in 2 years Randolph might be better then Bosh. Biedrins is already borderline all-star. Dont do it.

This is typical of something the Ws would do, trade away the future for an uncertain one: I would not trade Randolph right now for Bosh unless it was a 2 for 1 deal: because AR has such potential to become a star type player, he’s freakish in the way he moves for his size and his quickness to the ball is amazing, give this man a chance to develop: on the other hand BW and AB with Marco would not destroy us if we had Bosh with the rest of the mix, but if we don’t have any kind of guarantee that he will stay with the Ws then forget it: this seems like the curse of the Ws, always trying to get to that elite level and never quite being able to do it, and just when they have a nucleolus that has some potential they scrap it all only to find out later it was the wrong move: better to stay pat and see what this team can do when all healthy than sacrifice everything for one player that may up and leave anyway: can u imagine another 3 or 4 D league guys with what’s left after we lose AB, AR, MB, RT; a 20 game win a year team with discontent and drama all year:

Choose one to trade, not both.

But I’d all down for:
Beans, Wright or AR, Belli, 1st rounder

The most important aspect of any trade for Bosh would be the ability to re-sign or extend him past 2010. Would Bosh agree to an extension? If the trade went through, should the Warriors just throw the max at Bosh? If he were to leave town, the W’s would have some cap room in 2010, but I doubt they would be able to get one of the top 5 free agents that year.

The second most important factor would be the loss of depth to a team that’s already not deep. Knowing Nellie, what would be the individual MPG stats?

Jax 44
Crawford 42
Bosh 41
Monta 39
Maggette 37
Azubuike 24
Watson 10
Wright 3

This team would run out of gas by the all-star break and could basically afford no injuries.

I think this is a great trade for Toronto considering Bosh is unhappy anyway.

ya if Morrow could just improve his defense he could eventually be our starting 2 guard in years to come. I would do this trade if we subtracted turiaf, but ONLY if that happens we cant lost both our centers

just throw in some picks

These are the very same arguments people were making against trading for Kevin Garnett.

“He’s too skinny.
He can’t play center.
Biedrins is going to be an All-Star.
We’d be left with no big men.
We’d have no depth.
He’s never done anything great on his former team.
Let’s just wait and see what happens. We have a good team!”

blah blah blah

And just how are the Boston Celtics doing nowadays? Who are their other big men besides Garnett? Big baby? Perkins? Leon Powe? Scalabrine?!

And who comes off their bench? Eddie house? Tony Allen? Wow, they must suck! They’ve got no depth and no other big men! Hopefully we never end up like the Boston Celtics. No, please, Warriors, don’t trade for that superstar big man!

i would probably give it a no

The fact that bosh’s contract expires in 2010 bugs the crap out of me. I’d rather trade monta over biedrins and find a point guard than to rather have crawford/monta/jackson/wright/bosh with maggs/kelenna/cj coming off the bench. That’s like the we believe era revisited with no true starting point guard. With that we definitely won’t make the playoffs this year and probably won’t next year especially if we lost our 1st round draft pick for 2009 in the trade. People are forgetting how injury plagued we were the first half of the season.

I say we ride this year out and rebuild this team in the offseason. Probably deal away either maggette,crawford,randolph and/or 1st round pick to the thunder for one of their future first round picks like we did for jrich for bwright. I do understand that yes bosh is an all-star, but last time i checked, the raptors and the warriors had a similar records compared to us, so what are the chances of them giving up a current all-star power forward for a starting center/back up center/potential forward/potential guard/first round pick? I’d say 50/50. If the raptors were any smart, they’d be interested and back away. If I saw this trade, I’d probably do the same.

Our record is horrible this year, but no one ever said we’d be playoff bound anyways especially with baron gone and monta injured being the two biggest headlines out of the multiple issues we’ve had this season. We have a game on wednesday vs the lakers of last years western conference champs (i say that because bynum is gone again) I say if we don’t play a close game, then hell why not do the trade, but the way I see it, we’re gambling just as much both ways.

It’s either we lose 5 good players (i say that because either 2009/2010 will end up in a first round pick depending on which one we give away) and get an all-star, or we keep our 5 and let one of them develop into an all-star. We need to stop being gung-ho on trading, i know our record is bad but damn, one all-star is not gonna turn this franchise around (unless it’s lebron/kobe/dwight/wade….. you get what i mean)
