Wow. If I am a Memphis fan I am going nuts right now. Rudy Gay and OJ Mayo in the same backcourt? Not a bad way to start a franchise...

Love will be a very good player for Minnesota, but Mayo is something special. Putting him with Foye and Jefferson would have done damage. They're starting to build a terrific inside game with Jefferson and Love, but I really think they will regret giving up Mayo here. He has HOF talent (not predicting that he makes the HOF, just saying his talent is up there to do so).

Minnesota also got Miller and Cardinal I think, and Memphis got a couple bums and Walker added in the deal.

How do Memphis/Minnesota fans feel about the trade?

As a Wolves fan I am pissed! Mayo will be an allstar and would of been a huge part of a rebuilding process for the Wolves. Love isn't going to be a star, probably an above average player at best. When your team sucks as bad as the Wolves, you need stars not average players. Target Center will be empty again next year, Mayo would have stirred fan interest and filled some seats. Minnesota fans are pissed and fans are talking about not renewing their season tickets.

I'd rather play in Minnesota rather than Memphis. Minnesota has at least had prior success and would have been closer to building another contender with Jefferson and Mayo.

Mayo will be able to get pussy wherever the fuck he goes, so it makes no difference where he goes. Yes Mayo does care about championships like most pro athletes do.

And also, last I checked Mayo wasn't the GM either making the trades? Maybe things have changed, but I don't remember teams letting players that have been on the roster for 3 hours call the shots. The climate in each city has nothing to do with this trade and you're an idiot for even bringing it up.

I rarely say shit about people over a forum because everyone is entitled to their own opinion and they aren't idiots just because it isn't the same as yours, but everything I have seen you say here is moronic. You truly don't understand what you are talking about and it shows.

The word "hate" doesn't really come up in professional sports very often. There are many disagreements and dislikes, but hate -- not so much. While Willis McGahee never used the word "hate," his feelings about Buffalo are becoming more and more obvious as each day passes.


"I couldn't wait to get out of there," McGahee said about Buffalo.​
So how did the former 1,000 yard back act when he heard he was being traded? Quite simply and admittedly, he acted like a child.


"I was yelling and [stuff], running through the whole house, screaming, 'Yes! Yes!'" McGahee says. "It was such a relief."​
I'm pretty sure the feeling was mutual by coaches, players and fans alike. McGahee had become nothing more than a whining, babyish cancer. He was no more valuable to the Bills than a jewelry box is to Michael Vick.





Ah guy...Its becoming more and more obvious that your hatred for me is making you really really stupid. Are you still that hung up because you faded me on that Spain Vs Russia OVEr play and lost your money?


Am i seriously going to get in a conversation with some ignorant buffoon who thinks Black people like cold weather? Seriously do you want us to get in a debate about that? Let me ask you this, have you ever ever heard even one single player pick one of those butt fAcking cold ass northern states as the place he would like to play and sport? ( and i only mean when said state was not getting first or second pick in that draft. Because most players will bite the bullet. Take the paper and "survive" then transfer as soon as possible.

Do you know how many times people have made posts bashing their teams for drafting athletes from warm weather states to play for their teams on this very forum?

Quit with this childish bullshit you bonehead..This shit has gone far enough.

Get over yourself!!! JEEZ what a dweeb!!!

And then you have the nerve to call me and idiot and you type out this shit..

Yes you buffoon. The gm made a choice to pick arguably the best player in the draft and then traded him for what will ultimately be just another warm body in the NBA!!!

That makes so much sense. Matter of fact its genius!!

Those of us with common sense probably understand the trade was made with alot of nudging from Mayo. And he was probably dancing like a kid when he got the news he was leaving the official dick shrivel state of the USA!!!

damn canadians!!! Bout time we invade that shit and take their oil!!!
