What could GM Mitch Kupcake do to help my Lakers B4 the trade deadline?

Get fired. Trading Shaq for the guys they got was STUPID. Signing Kwame Brown is one more reason.

no. arenas, jarrett jack, jwill and terry are all more complete than starbury. honestly, nobody on the knicks is worth picking up except jamal crawford. and you can bet starbury won't be traded. nobody in their right mind would take that nasty contract on in the middle of the season. what could that possibly accomplish? jet, gil, and jj will prove perfectly effective in giving you steals and dimes. stick damp in your lineup and find a decent rebounder to help boards at the F or C position. Maybe jeff foster or something.

if your league is set for Commissioner Review, then just click on the trade and kill it...\nif your league is set for League Review then you can't kill it alone, you need to get the other managers to veto the trade..\nor you can email Y! requesting them to veto the trade, change the league to Commissioner Review or both...\n-nny

No one...they should just let this roster gel, and let Brian Cook develop into that second scorer that we need...we have no one that is really that valuable besides Kobe to trade, so we just need to wait until the next draft.

well it all depends on what you need, if you want Def. stats dont do the trade, last year Kirilenko led the league in blocks and he is a heck of a rebounder too but than again Rashard Lewis is a very good Off. player but not as good on the Def. side as Kirilenko, as for Gasol he isn't expected back til Jan/Feb so if you do the trade dont drop him at least you'll have him in the second half of the season but remember what do you need? Off or Def.

Delonte will be a great player but not at pg. Trade Wally to the trail blazers for their 2007 draft pick (greg oden!!!) then trade their pick for a veteran. The Cs already have a bunch of great young players. West Green Ghomes Jefferson Perkins Allan. Just to name a few. We need more veterans to lead the team. Pierce cant do everything. can he?

First of all, if I was the Lakers, I would keep him just because of that move he put on Shaq in January! But he was just a rookie, and what he needs is more minutes cause even Kobe didn't play that much his rookie year, but he got better. Besides, no one is as sorry as Kwame Brown!

He's out of Minnesota for sure......but where will he go???  I say LA....they definately need a low post presence & that will allow Lamar Odom to play on the wing more. He is a great player but the knock on KG has been that he disappears late in big games (crunch time)....no worries, Kobe will be the man in the final minutes anyway.  Lakers are the perfect team to make a run at him.  As for the guy above that mentioned the Chicago Bulls....NO WAY!  The Bulls have made it obvious that they're building with youth, they have several good young players with a load of potential, not to mention the #2 pick in this years draft....why would they break them up by trading for a 30 year old vet in Garnett who hasn't shown he can lead a franchise anywhere?  KG is a Laker come the '06-07 season, watch & see.

Get Ben Wallace from Detroit.  He's disgruntled with Flip Saunders, and he'd love Kidd who'll work to get him easy points (dunks) under the basket.  Plus you can them move Kristic over to the forward position, his more natural position.  That'd make for a great team: Carter, Kidd, Jefferson, Kristic, Big Ben.  Wow.

Mention that Larry Brown needs to balance out his lineup with a solid big man.  They have the guards to win games but nothing up front.  Mention that drafting Tyrus Thomas, Glen Davis, or Shelden Williams would be a good idea because these are all formidable big men.

Do what the Red Sox did. Fire the coach from last year, trade your best player, and get a long haired guy to bat 1st.

You'd might want to get rid of Fisher and Harpring in favor of similar players, since you seem to be in a small-ish (9-10 team) league. \nOtherwise, Paul and Camby were good picks and West was a great free agent pick up. I wouldn't want to go against you.

Out of that bunch, you may be best served trading Randy Johnson and Ryan Dempster. You have two strikeout guys in Santana and Kazmir and occasionally a third with Buehrle. \n\nGetting a taker for Johnson should be easy, look for a younger starter like SF's Noah Lowry, or Anaheim's John Lackey or Washington's John Patterson. I know Patterson is injured now and won't be back for another two weeks, but he looks like a keeper.\n\nIf you package Chipper and maybe Beltran for a superstar outfielder, that may also work.

The Lakers should give up half the team for KG if they have to. I've been waiting for this trade to go down for two years already. Plus Kobe and KG...together?...how sexy is that!?!

I wouldn't panic just yet. Pretty early in the season unless you are not playing head to head. Might try dangling them to other owners but a lot of people won't be apt to trade this early. But there are people out there that give up on players as soon as they have a bad week or two so you might be able to get a slow starter for em. Personally I would just ride it out for a week or two more.

Easy ...drop him and pick up another center. Offer him in a trade,see if someone will bite and pull the trigger. He is hurt, not in a hurry to come back and most important is he isnt a good fantasy option now even when he is healthy, he saves himself for the playoffs. Dont get me wrong, Shaq is a great player but fantasy results and star power often dont go hand in hand. Shaq is brutal in a couple of categories and will cost you as many points in those categories as he will earn you in others.
