It seems the Wolves found some poor, dumb bastard to take not only Ricky Davis, but also Mark Blount off their hands in the Miami Heat. The Wolves picked up 65-year old guy who never stops shooting Antoine Walker, who was awesome at Kentucky and on Coach K for the Genesis, Michael Doleac, and Wayne Simien. The bad news is that these guys are all worthless. The good news is that there is a first round pick coming the Wolves direction. It's conditional, which probably means protected in some way, and they don't say what year it is, but it's a first round pick. So that's very, very good.
The even better news is I remember watching all three of these guys in their college days, so if they just trade away those high school kids (Jefferson, Telfair, and Green), foreigners (Jaric), and Theo Ratliff (who watches wyoming?), they'll have the perfect team of people I watched in college. Using the espn.com trade machine, I've figured out what must be done:
Trade Marko Jaric to the Hawks for Al Horford, Acie Law IV, and Salim Stoudamire.
Trade Theo Ratliff to the Nuggets for Marcus Camby
Trade Al Jefferson and Gerald Green to the Hornets for Chris Paul
Trade Juwon Howard and Greg Buckner to the Grizzlies for Mike Miller and Hakim Warrick
Trade Mark Madsen and Sebastian Telfair to the Bobcats for Emeka Okafor
(all of these work under salary restrictions)
Which would give you a roster of:
PG: Chris Paul, Acie Law IV,
SG: Randy Foye, Rashad McCants, Salim Stoudamire,
SF: Mike Miller, Corey Brewer, Ryan Gomes
PF: Hakim Warrick, Al Horford, Chris Richard
C: Marcus Camby, Emeka Okafor, Craig Smith
Sweet.

W, you must have made a mistake since you traded away Mark "Maddog" Madsen in your trade hypothetical. We all know you watched him in college. Christ, he's the namesake of one of your lame friends.
I don't like Stanford.
Nate, I hope you were not serious in thinking that anyone other than Kevin McHale would accept those trades, yes they work money wise but you certainly dont think other teams will go for them? it solidly proves you to be an utter loser and homer just looking for something to dream about.
I completely meant all of those trades are possible and I think they are fair and balanced, no sarcasm at all, just like the rest of this blog.
Who is the anonymous guy who posted the comment two up from this one? You know my real name, so I must know you, but I can't figure who you are in real life. So, who are you?
Yo mammy boy!
Hey, I was awesome in that game.
Sincerely,
