No Rumor or anything even out there- but i know the Wiz are going to try and unload him with Wall and Heinrich on their squad..

Wiz need help down low and we could unload Diop and Diaw on them..

PG: Arenas - DJ

SG: Jax - Henderson

SF: Wallace - ???

PF: Thomas - Brown

C: Chandler - Nazr

If the Wiz need help down low then Diaw and Black Shrek aren't going to do much for them. Diaw is more of a point forward and Diop is well, Diop. Bobcats Baseline had a very similar trade as one of their offseason scenarios, and I have to say that I don't like it. I'd rather wait out Diaw and Diop than put faith in Arenas' knees. Besides, what happens when Jackson finds the guns that Arenas has in his locker?

We would be a billion bucks over the luxury tax with Arenas's huge contract.

if we clear Diop and Diaw- Arenas' contract would be fine.. anyways, i kinda agree that I would rather hold onto Diaw than gamble on Arenas- even if it means getting rid of Diop

No it wouldn't. Arenas will make $17,730,694 next year. Diaw and Diop together will make $15,478,600 next year. The difference in those two salaries, assuming we re-sign Thomas, would push us into the luxury tax.

    • I’ve rarely ever been more sure of anything than losing out — but how can anyone say with a straight face “Bryce hasn’t improved, but Canales has and he’s masks his flaws”. You have to be so out of touch with reality to put one way above the other when discussing those two. 
    • Last night was the classic example of a visiting team just holding on through the wave of emotion a home team has at the start of a big time game. Bama’s first two kickoff returns really set them back as far as playcalling and allowed OU to dictate field position. The emotion of the home crowd fed into what OU was doing at that point, and it felt like Bama would not be able to overcome that.     Once the kickoff returner was told to fair catch every kick, the game shifted, as Bama wasn’t starting each drive inside their own 15. It was then that Bama was able to make some plays, outscoring OU 34-7 the rest of the way.  I think the last 3/4 of the game proves Bama was the better team. OU was just able to ride the initial wave of emotion to a big lead, but Bama held on just enough.  However, had OU blocked the punt on Bama’s second drive and scored a TD (vice a FG on the ensuing drive), things likely would have been different.  Anyway, Roll Tide!
