2012-13 Around the NBA thread

What exactly do the Wizards have to trade if they can keep all those players and picks.

They have lots of picks from trading jamaal (or is it Jordan) Crawford and they can trade okafor and ariza just keep the first this year and trade future firsts and you have yourself a playoff team.

I'm just curious to see if Chris Bosh gets traded now. What if the Wizards got Bosh, along with Beal, Wall, Nene, and their draft pick of Porter/Bennett/Oladipo. That would be a very good team.

Bosh isn't worth the salary he's getting. There is a reason why there is talk of the Heat moving him.

When Bosh wasn't on the Heat and he was with Toronto, he was widely considered as a top 10 player. He goes to a team with two top 10 players, both clearly better than him and one who is the best player in basketball, so Bosh didn't get as many opportunities since he has two ball-handlers/scorers so his stats were never the same. I think that if Bosh goes to a team where he is the only big name or a team that that has only one name, we can see him return to his Toronto form. The Wizards are one of those teams.

Top 10 players don't score as many points as you and me in game 7 of the NBA finals... If the Wizards get Bosh they will just be Atlanta. Make the playoffs but never actually make a run or win anything. Plus the Heat won't trade Bosh for picks, they would want a player that could help them win a championship now. They probably will not even end up trading him.

?? He had a couple of double doubles and was going against Tim Duncan. And he did have some clutch moments too in this finals series and was drawinging praise from everyone on the ESPN panel (even Bayless who ridicules Bosh, and praises Tim Duncan).

I actually did thing he played well, he just did not play like a top 10 player. There is a huge difference between the two. I think Chris Bosh is a great player. He just is not top 10. Too many other great players. I just wouldn't build a franchise around him. Toronto tried to and it did not work out that well for them. He is a great 2nd option though. You just won't win championships or even make it out of the first round if you try to build around him.

I dont want Chris Bosh anywhere near the Wizards.

Quick note on Timmy Duncan, #1 most boring player of all time.

Alex Len may go #1 overall, with Dipo at 2 to Orlando.

Going to be an interesting draft if it shakes out like this.

I wonder if the Wiz have serious interest in Oladipo, especially if he is there at number 3 and say Porter isn't.

Alex Len isnt worthy of the number 1 pick IMO. I honestly hope he is picked before us though because we know how happy Grunfield is when a European big man is available.

We've heard the Deng and Wiz rumor right?
