He just doesn't help anywhere and is a total fantasy wasteland. Haywood would be a much better option, if only for the blocks. james, if I were you, i’d drop collins and forget about him for the rest of the year.

We won't deal. We'll slum it a center until Yao gets back and hope our stud guards can carry us to some W's. What do you guys think of Collins? Haywood's available. I'm thinking about it. But my partner has eyes for Vlad Radmanovic. When Yao went down, my partner and I settled (after some debate) on Jarron Collins as a replacement. We won’t deal.

I'm all about trading high, but Billups is just on another level right now. I'm usually against big trades like this where it doesn't seem like you clearly come out better. As for the first deal, I think it's going to be tough to deal AK47 until his status is cleared up a bit. And I'm still not sure that I'd do the deal. I mean, sure, Kirilenko could be out for ages, but that could happen to Webber, too. And Diaw, like most guys who aren't Nash/Marion on Phoenix, is running hot and cold. Trades are fun, but they don't always help. I think the second scenario isn’t going to work out. I’m all about trading high, but Billups is just on another level right now.

This was before he left the road trip, and the owner pulled the trade back. But if i reoffered it, I think i could swing it. Thoughts? I was also offered Cassell and D. Howard for Billups and Ilgauskus. I turned it down and countered with Bosh in place of Cassell. I know that's asking a lot, but I'm from Detroit and Chauncey is just too damn good. He finally offered Cassell, Howard, and Bosh for Billups, Big Z, and Chris Paul, who I consider untradeable. Help me out here boys... I was offered Webber and Diaw for Kirilenko.
