Brown deal done?

Savory Griddles · by **Savory Griddles** on Tue Jul 12, 2005 1:40 pm

I just read on another board that ESPNews is reporting the Brown for Butler deal is done. Can anyone confirm this butt raping?

This better be some sort of cover up. The deal just doesn't seem plausable.

Mitch is being tested right now.

Xtra Sports AM 570 said the trade is in the works...so I guess we are looking at getting Brown so but whatever...

This is what I saw too on the Hot List but from what I was hearing from the host he said the L.A. Times was reporting that it was done or something like that so...but yeah that's what I saw too Guru so...

ESPNnews just reported something about kwame and caron, I was listening the the radio so I didn't hear what they were saying.

The Laker Link · by **The Laker Link** on Tue Jul 12, 2005 2:00 pm

Ok Hot List just said now that the L.A. Times is reporting that the trade is in talk...and AM 570 said the same thing...so it is just in talks...so little false alram people...the trade isn't done yet...we still have a chance to back out and everything...

That's weak! We better get additional players for Butler. Brown hasn't done jack.....Caron has, and has proven himself on a consistent basis.

Mitches 1st big mistake of the 2005-2006 campaign if this happens

It said Lakers and Wizards are talking about a sign and trade between Caron and Kwame, that was about it.

TomSeaver · by **TomSeaver** on Tue Jul 12, 2005 2:03 pm

Thats a bad trade. Kwame Brown stinks. ugh

Guru, you can bring out the "Thank You Caron" thread and avatars you created back during Boozergate.

GuRu · by **GuRu** on Tue Jul 12, 2005 2:06 pm

Caron is redundant dime-a-dozen junk, Kwame is heartless unproven junk

Pick your poison!

I can confirm that, HotList just said the same thing.

Again, why are people so worried about losing Caron? LOL! It's CARON BUTLER, folks! NOT Kobe! NOT Odom. CARON BUTLER.

I think we may be OVERHYPING Caron Freakin' Butler here.

Caron is cool, but if you have a shot at getting an athletic, young, skilled 7 footer and you'll be only giving up a 6'7 swingman that is also your 3rd scoring option, ALL WHILE YOU NEED FRONTCOURT SIZE AND HELP AND HAVE CAP ISSUES AND THERE AREN'T THAT MANY AVAILABLE BIG MEN...YOU TAKE THAT SHOT!

Caron isn't like losing Shaq or Kobe...it's CARON FREAKIN' BUTLER, FOLKS! LOL!

stigmaXXL · by **stigmaXXL** on Tue Jul 12, 2005 2:07 pm

not a bad trade IF we get the first rounder... dammit i dont want caron gone... hes soo good and has tons of potential...

lakerholic · by **lakerholic** on Tue Jul 12, 2005 2:07 pm

A) It can't be Kwame for Butler straight up, the numbers don't work as Brown is restricted and would have to be signed and traded to us

B) Since other players would have to be involved (hopefully from the other side as well), let's cut Mitch some slack before hanging him... and I'll be the first to make the noose if this screws us, by the way

C) BUTLER HAS TO BE MOVED. If Simmons, a journeyman until this past year, gets huge $$$$ from the Cavs, what do you think Butler will command next year? THE MAX. The Lakers won't be in a position/won't want to give him that and we'll end up losing him for nothing.
