They might even get Zo back for a few more games this year.

Hm...that is if they're lucky. He had a pretty bad injury last year; could have ended his career.

The team medical report says that he should be ready by training camp and that he expects to come back and play maybe 2 more years.

OMG I just saw the latest rumor running around that the Heat are going to Trade D Wade to Chicago for the #1 Pick which would give them both Beasley and Rose. That would be a decent team in about 5 years if they could manage to keep their confidence up.

They're both Power Forwards, so I don't think they would make good Centers.

O'Neil could play center. Bosh is a forward type anyways. I was actually thinking of trading Bargnani and Ford for O'Neil and Rasho could come off their bench.

Perhaps O'Neal will go to the heat for a draft pick.

Sure, Ford can steal but doesn't always assists. He hogs a lot of time, gives turnover and if you compare Calderon and Ford. Calderon would be better. Calderon hardly ever turns over the ball and a possessions can always make a difference in the game.

Oh wow... I don't think they should do that. Wade is still young and I don't think he has hit his full potential yet, but then again if they both got those 2 young players, Heat would be really set for years to come.
I don't think they should do it though.

Who the hell is Marreese Speights
Sixers are trying to grab him. It says that he's not ready for the NBA, but oh well, Philly picks are rarely ever good

Wow, that's something to thing about. First off, if Wade leaves, then Rose and Beasley would have to be the franchise players for that team. With Wade, Miami was the worst team last year, and now, with Marion, added, getting both Beasley and Rose wouldn't fit in.

Also, the last thing that Chicago needs is another shooting guard, Ben Gorden is good enough, but i heard he might leave Chicago

Also, Chicago needs a good big man, to replace Ben Wallace, and Beasley should do it.

I've never heard of him from the NCAA, but he seems like a decent player.

Watch out Wizards fans. New Rumors has it that Washington could very well trade the 18th, 47th and next years 1st Round pick for Oneal. Could you imagine a back court of Arenas and Butler to work with a front court of Haywood, O'Neal and Jamison. This could be a turnaround that would make Bostons this year look dismal by comparison

And Oro on that I am pretty sure if they ditch Wade for the first pick and draft both Beasley and Rose that it will be a pretty much given they will dump Marion as well. They would probably gut the entire roster and give the 09 season up to teamwork and familiarity.

I think that's probably a good pick.

Which O'Neal, Jermaine or Shaquille? Jermaine O'Neal is the only one out of them that would be plausible, but he's already been traded by Indiana Pacers to Toronto Raptors for T. J. Ford, Rasho Nesterovic, and the 17th pick. Shaquille O'Neal has far too hefty a contract and was just signed, which makes it very difficult for him to be traded, and Washington Wizards probably wouldn't benefit from that.

New Orleans Hornets traded their 27th pick for cash, which might be good at their level.

It was for Jermaine but when I posted that last night the deal was not official for the raptors. I would have much liked to have seen him go to the Wizards though.
Just 2 more hours until the draft begins

I would have preferred getting the deal with Jamal Crawford.
