and throw in both firsts?

When I read this yesterday, I figured there was no way in hell New Orleans wants to part with Gordon, even considering how he begged them not to match Phoenix's offer sheet. Sure enough, New Orleans is listening to offers. I would do that trade in a heartbeat, Gordon is a perfect fit for us. I also would be willing to throw in both of our first round picks, but I think we could get it done with one. Hopefully use the other on a PG like Trey Burke.

Are any of the Utah beat writers this intelligent, objective, or honest?

The beat guys are told not to give too much opinion, they are paid to cover what the team does, not what the team doesn't do. And they are all much better writers than this. Yahoo's contributors page is one of the worst blog sites, which is strange because Yahoo sports has the best paid writers in the biz.

Nice try, Locke.

I'd do this. I might be willing to throw in a 2nd-round pick as well. Not sure if the Clippers would though.

I would do this if Minnesota would give us their 1st-round pick this year. Problem is, I'm not sure Josh Smith would re-sign in Minny.

Any trade with Minnesota where we don't get Rubio is a waste for me.

You mean rich man´s Jamaal Tinsley ?

I would do this. The Clippers probably would too. Not sure if Boston does it. They may need to get a pick back in the deal from the Clippers.

Yeah, that's not how life works. They'll have a top 10 pick this year.

I almost puked. Rubio can get steals, beat his man, rebound, and can actually shoo....ah nuts, he's only 30% from 3 and 40% from 2. Welp there goes some of my love for Rubio.

Yeah...they won't give us that pick for a rental of over-rated Josh Smith and one of the worst point guards in the WNBA as it stands.

Rubio is the face of the Wolves's franchise. He's not getting traded.

I know I know.
The rest of that team is crap though so any trade with them is lateral unless we get a pick. Maybe Shved is good though, but I didn't like him when he played us. Too thin for SG, too slow and non-cerebral for PG.
