Idea: Heat/Blazers

Bentley2002 · 12-22-2006, 11:36 AM

With the Heat continuing to struggle without Shaq, I think they need should consider a move to keep up in the EC. I mean the argument there is the EC is very weak but the Heat need to make a small change relatively soon, or right after the All-Star Break.

To Miami
-Jamal Magloire
-Juan Dixon

To Portland
-James Posey
-Michael Doleac
-2008 2nd round pick

Why?
-The Heat need a starting centre and with the aging Mourning, I think its necessary to bring in Magloire even if its for the remainder of the year. With the emergence of Dorrell Wright, I think it makes Posey expendable and Doleac has been on and off the block for sometime. I think the key here is Dixon who is in a crowded young backcourt but can provided strong minutes ona contender off the bench. The Blazers get the starting SF they need as Posey is a decent defender and slasher capable of starting. Doleac has a PO at the end of this year so it gives the Blazers some flexibility at the 5 spot.

The heat would no doubt do it but I dont see why the Blazers would want to do this deal...

why do Portland want Doleac and Possey? they must get youth in return in Magloire's trade! both Miami and Portland contracts expire in 1 or 2 seasons! trade must include Miami's 2007 pick to Portland!

I prefer Magloire to Raptors for A.Williams's contract, D.Martin, Tucker and 2007 pick. Raptors upgrade center position and Portland get a nice pick (among 10 and 15) and expiring contracts.
