It’s all coming together now. Changes will surely happen in New York, and Larry Bird is feeling betrayed by Ron Artest, so you know something is definitely happening there.
“I think enough is enough,” Bird said. “I think Ronnie will do fine but not here.”
“I don’t know if this is the right wording, but I felt betrayed,” Bird said of Artest. “We’re disappointed. Things happen; maybe it’s a good thing. He’s a very talented player. I always liked working with him and how he went about things on the basketball court. He’s a top-12 player in the league, but we’re in a situation where we have to move on.”
Larry’s not the kind to just say things like that. Artest is moving. Lots of teams want him. The NBA landscape is weird right now and the trade rumor and speculation is running all nuts really early. We’re not one to spread rumors unless it’s about Steph saying he loves balling more than he loves his family, so we’re going to sweep up all these trade scenarios into the biggest, most effective trade ever. Read on to see the first ever 23-team, 30something-player trade.
To Denver: Ron Artest
To Seattle: Kwame Brown, Michael Doleac

This all works under the cap, too. Except for Ron Artest playing for three different teams, it’s toally claen and makes sense for everyone.

Your trade is totally unrealistic. There’s no WAY that Isiah is letting a trade of that magnitude go down without the Knicks acquiring a couple overpriced SFs.
The Cavalier,
This trade would never happen. Sacramento is not moving Peja, and they’re not firing Coach Adelman, either.
Ask Geoff Petrie.
He’ll tell ya.
Totally unrealistic! Artest must go to at least 5 teams.

The American Roundie will have been God.
