Baron Davis / LA Clippers trade discussion

[dnbman]

Eric Motherfucking Gordon.

Or switch DJ for Najera.

What about picks?

[SCBobcat]

For those who care about reality, I think Deandre Jordan would be added in with Baron to make it more even. We need a youthful center. That evens out the youth swap with us sending DJ, the Baron's contract is evened out by Hammer and Diop (to whatever extent you think).
It is almost certain that we will not be getting a sweetheart deal, so don't waste your time thinking about Eric Gordon.

That...and another PG (besides Davis)....a young center...two turtle Doves and a Partridge in a Pear tree....happy season all I got my Xmas gift early...

If we got DeAndre Jordan + a 2nd round pick or the unprotected Minny 1st round pick (and the cap space + 2 open roster spots) it gives us a number of opportunities for future moves.

Thabeet is on the block, Memphis is looking for a player that can push them into the playoffs. Stephen Jackson for Thabeet and OJ Mayo works. Or we could use the open roster spots to bring back Flip + a center from the NBDL.

As long as this isnt the last trade/move we make I am fine with it.

Jeff Adrien is a FA I believe. He was with Golden State earlier this year and played pretty well. If we end up with room on the roster I think he would be a solid addition.

Assuming the basic trade is in place -- Baron for DJ, Gana, and Carroll-- what else should reasonably be added to make this beneficial for the Cats?

MJ considering selling to Posthulos or however you spell his name.

What cap space do we open up? Paying more for 1 player than 2 means we add salary. Not to mention that we'd have to add EVEN MORE when we sign a new player.

I could also see the FO floating info like this in order to entice NJ, Denver, Sacto or whoever else to move a little faster if they want to get a DJ, Harris, or other PG-related deal done. That may be giving to much credit to the Lollipop, but whatever.

I can't see MJ adding salary either SWedd so the Clips idea makes no sense to me...and I'd really rather keep Davis and Jax (if we have to keep him) apart...I'd see a trade for Davis (at this point in time) as a real step backwards for the 'Cats...

If we just do the trade straight up we save a little money according to ESPN trade machine, and every penny counts for MJ.
If their is a CBA that leads to contract re structuring Davis will fall in line with that as well.
