      Bima,

      Seriously - there is no need to run off like that, we just disagree about Nene, big deal. Please don't avoid writing that piece for Clutchfans, your contributions here are important, and I don't want to be the cause of you not contributing. Buck up young man, this is just a simple disagreement, it is not that important.

      However, on a private note. Don't you think a deal including Dally/Martin/Scola/Lowry for Dwight and all their trash is a very attractive deal for Orlando?? Attractive enough to force the Lakers to offer both Bynum/Gasol and/or the Clippers to offer up Blake/Deandre?

      Call me crazy but I think we are in serious contention to acquire Dwight if Orlando decides to move him. And I think they are most likely to move him West rather than take that crap NJ deal.

      I saw that but I can't find it in anything to do with the CBA. Can't find the language pertaining to the 2012 dates in the CBA.

      Hey, answer a dumb question for me. When is Dally eligible to be traded and where do you find the answer?

      Quick question Bima,

      How do you know all this information about the CBA and the NBA's system? Lol.

      No. Amnestied players claimed on waivers cannot be traded until July 1. For instance, the Clippers cannot trade Chauncey Billups, since he is in the last year of his contract and will become a free agent on July 1.

      Bima,

      I posted in the NBA dish section, but my thread quickly got bumped down the chain, and this is really just a quick question that I trust you would know.

      Q: Is it possible for an under the cap team that wins an amnesty auctioned player to immediately trade them?

      ex: The Kings win the Billups auction with a bid of $5m/yr and then immediately shop him to the list of teams he is willing to play for, asking a relatively small return (2nd round pick, low level prospect, cash etc.)
