Sonics Trade: Ronald Murray
Timberwolves Trade: Michael Olowokandi 2006 Minnesota First Round Pick
Sonics agree...get a pick, and get bigger. Plus, Olowokandi becomes trade bait.

Interesting.
Yeah, you get a pick, but it's virtually worthless. In fact, since it's 4-year guaranteed contract it would have negative value in my book.
Candi's the better player, but his contract situation should be interesting in the offseason. And he's older.
For the wolves, they basically fill one hole and create another (while losing the guaranteed 1st rounder in the process). It all depends on if he can get someone in free agency. There are comparable centers in free agency if he can get one.

I did this deal because I feal that it will be easier to ship Olowokandi out during the year than Murray with his contract. So, I look for it to be at the end...Murray for a couple of picks.

Interesting...
Rafer and Flip are a nice PG/SG combo (a little small though), and the Wolves were missing a SG... But the only center on the roster is now Jake Voskul. Big hole a center now, unless another move is made.
Sonics get Kandi and a late pick, but want to move Kandi (who is a nice defensive option at center)
Cannot wait to see what else you guys have under your sleeves...

Yeah, that JRich contract is terrible. Well, thats just punching man while he is down... Actually, wo of the best things about JRich... with him, I will always be in the top 10 of the league in rebounding, since he is a SG that averages 7 rebounds a game. And he hit 45% form the field, which is not too shabby for a guard.. If his outside shooting goes up, he will be a great offensive player. but his contract still sucks..lol

Well, I dont mean to hit below the belt. JRich warrented a big contract because he is a good, if not great. THis is a way you could make sure you kept him. In your situatuon, I probably would have done the same.

Just kidding... I knew I would have to pay him, especially after he made the All-Star team... He is a 2nd tier shooting guard now, but I knew I would lose him in free agency... Almost like what he and Troy did this year for real in Golden State.

You did the right thing. Who cares about cap space, if you are winning.

Lol. Ouch. I don't understand why anyone would want to inherit that team...but what surprises me to most os our KnicksGM's lack of trading. You'd think some contenders would be looking at his roster.
