We trade #3 and Ruben to Utah, and get the #6, Kirk Snyder and Gordan Giricek, and the we swap the #6 and DA to the Lakers for #10, Chucky Atkins, and Vlade Divac, who will be immediately waived.
Also heard that it the Utah deal will include Zach and Carlos Boozer.
I can understand the Utah deal, but not the LA deal. Maybe we save a little cap space by waiving Vlade, and get rid of DA, but Chucky Atkins and #10 for #6 I don't know. I really believe that the Blazers want to sign euro stud Jasikevisus, to be the PG, and allow Telfair a few more years of seasoning. Why trade for Atkins if you are going after Jasikevisus??
