Monta Ellis to Chicago for Luol Deng
Warriors fan here.
GSW are dangling Monta Ellis to the Knicks for PF/C David Lee. Lee is terrific in the offensive end but erratic defensively, plus the Warriors are crowded in the PF department with Randolph, Wright and rookie Ekpe Udoh (same built too). Warriors are thin at the SF with the departure of Corey Maggette to the Bucks. IMO, Warriors should trade for Luol Deng and Joe Alexander for Monta Ellis. Current PG of Warriors is the fast rising Stephen Curry, so that makes Ellis expendable.
Old Warriors starting lineup 2009-2010:
PG: Stephen Curry
SG: Monta Ellis
SF: Corey Maggette
PF: Anthony Randolph
C: Andris Biedrins
New Warriors starting lineup 2010-2011:
PG: Stephen Curry
SG: Reggie Williams
SF: Luol Deng
PF: Anthony Randolph
C: Andris Biedrins
Off the Bench
PG: Charlie Bell
SG: Anthony Morrow/Kelenna Azuibuke
SF: Joe Alexander/Kelenna Azuibuke
PF: Brandan Wright/Ekpe Udoh
C: Ronny Turiaf/Dan Gadzuric
Lineup may change as the franchise is up for sale. If the rumored would be new owner is Larry Ellison CEO of Oracle, then more changes will ensue in the next few months prior to training camp.
The Knicks and Amare Stoudemire have reportedly agreed on a five-year, $100 million contract.
Free Agent Shaquille O'neal has been offered a Mid-Level-Exception worth $5.8 Million on a 2 year bond by the Atlanta Hawks. Sources said that O'neal's agent is still negotiating with New Jersey for securing a 3 year deal worth $5 Million annually.
Draft Wishlist:
PG Michael Carter-Williams / 21 yrs. old / 6'5
PF Livio Jean-Charles / 19 yrs. old / 6'9

Orlando signs Chris Duhon 4 yrs $15 million.
So the knicks now are after Tony Parker or Monta Ellis to run the PG position and either D-Wade or LBJ or Melo or even two of these 3!!!! what a team it would be if things went their way.
That's great but why should the Bulls do this trade?Originally Posted by GoldenStallion87
We don't rid ourselves of Deng's contract, we're merely replacing it with Monta's while downgrading on talent. Not to mention that Ellis is a terrible fit next to Rose because he's a mediocre shooter and needs the ball in his hands to be effective.
In my opinion, the Warriors should've tried getting Salmons, he's better than Maggete and probably would've been cheaper.
durant signs an extension contract

Bulls sign Carlos Boozer to 5 yr deal.
Interesting. 5 years, $80,000,000. According to this report, the Bulls still have enough money to overpay somebody with a max contract.

Raptors sign Linas Kleiza to 4 yr $20 million offer sheet.
It looks like Lebron might be heading to Miami. If that's the case, they'll be a party on south beach for the next decade.
Yao, is injury prone. I would rather keep Shaq than have Yao.
Yeah, and Heat fans would brag till that big three dies. Man, I can see the NBA getting so unpopular because everybody knows there's not going to be much competitive spirit in these NBA players because of that big three in Miami. I could also see everybody in the world hating Miami people because they would be so cocky.
The Kings of South Beach
Kleiza will be good for any team. If the team already has superstars, he'll help. If the team is mediocre or bad, he'll help.That's the way the rumors are going right now. Even ESPN is saying it now. Hopefully, this is just a trick to get more people to watch his TV special tonight.It looks like Lebron might be heading to Miami. If that's the case, they'll be a party on south beach for the next decade.
Jermaine O'Neal is leaning toward Celtics. A good fit, has size and can rebound against the Lakers. I think he evens the loss of Rasheed and Perk.
I hope Jermain will sign w/ the Celtics. Looks like the East are getting stronger and stronger again.
Roughly 7 hours to go before LBJ announces which team he is playing for.
Keep The Faith | Where to Buy a Watch
Miami has made an offer to Mike Miller for 5 yrs $27-30million, they've given him until tonight to decide with assurances that Lebron will sign with the Heat.
do you have a source for this? I didn't think that was possible unless James, Wade and Bosh all take significant pay cuts.
