Colangelo is batting 1000 since coming aboard:
- Lands the 1st overall pick (I know he had nothing do with it, but it happened during his tenure)
- He trades Araujo for an equal donut, but at least we don’t have the terrible smell of taking Araujo over Iguadala lurking in the wings
- Lands Nesterovic for Eric Williams, Matt Bonner and a 2nd round pick in 2009.
He also apparantly pulled this deal off without affecting the salary cap, which means we still have $10 million to chase a couple more pieces.
Rumour Mill:
Rumour 1: A purposed trade of Ray Allen for the 1st pick and a couple players. I would do it!� Don’t think about it.� If it is a real deal, go for it.� That being said, I would try to work a larger deal to include Wilcox if possible.� Ray Allen has 3-4 years of solid basketball in him. A deal like this, I would imagine being Allen for the 1st pick, Joey Graham and Maybe MoPete.� Seems a bit steep, but MoPete and Graham aren’t as good as Allen combined, in my estimation anyways.
Rumour 2: Magloire and TJ Ford for a group of players.� Sounds intriguing, but� I don’t know how this would work with Nesterovic in the mix.� I assume we would lost Villenuava, 1st pick, and maybe Joey Graham.� This would however create an interesting front court of Bosh, Magloire and Nesterovic.� Move Bosh to small forward, and you have a front court that would give a lot of teams some problems.
