Trade Identification Exercise

[Chef]

Got an idea. Let's all work together on making a list of tradeable players that we could get here.

Rules:
1. do not post the actual trade so it goes into Def. Trade Idea thread
2. list the player you think is available
3. give only the most valuable piece we send back
4. must be realistic ie don't write wade: our number #1 unprotected because wade isn't available and if he were we don't have enough assets to trade for him anyway
5. other team's picks also count

we then vote approval (thanks button). first seven ideas that get 5 "thanks", the game stops and we then go player/pick by player/pick and try to make a legit and fair trade.

i will start

tyreke evans: detroit pick

Is the goal to get the 7 best players, 7 best deals, 7 best....

seven best deals that are most likely to happen, fair to both teams and are logical for our team.

basically, we work as a unit to come up with good deals that are likely to happen.

Derrick Williams :: Gerald Henderson

[isguros]

Reggie Williams :: James Johnson


Great thread idea btw

Drew Gooden :: Gana Diop

Before anyone slaughters me I'd of course have more incentive coming our way.

...and I probably still wouldn't like it.

Tyreke Evans/ Hendo

How do you see this trade going, what do we add, what do they add? Sorry for these questions in this thread but this trade intrigues me.

[Plowright]

I have been thinking about Tyreke for Hendo a lot to be honest. I am a massive fan of Evans, I know his game doesn't fit any system and he doesn't have a position but didn't people say similar things about Kemba? I think Dunlap would go back to Evan's rookie year and break down the tape to see his strengths, much like he did with Kemba at UCon.

I keep hearing Evans is on the block (along with Jimmer and James Johnson). Plus Sacremento doesn't really have a good defensive two guard, they have however recently given Thornton a 7.5 3 year contract though, but they are bringing him off the bench at the moment, my guess is he got a contract and got lazy- he seems to fit that character from what I have seen of him. Hendo could also play some 3 for them as at the moment none of their small forwards are anything to write home about ( Salmons, Outlaw, Honeycutt, Garcia).

But anyway, ontot the trade. Somethin like:

Hendo/Sessions

Tyreke/James Johnson

This would allow us to play with Tyreke as ball handler and let kemba play off the ball (like we do with sessions) but gain in the the height/ rebounding/ which would help us quite a bit. Tyreke would pretty much just fill the role Sessions has now but give us more on the defensive side and give us some more ft attepmts (Dunlap's own form of Viagra it appears).

James Johnson is a decent defender and gives us another PF who can do some good things, I have always been impressed with him when I have seen him play. But I am sure theres a reason he has never cracked a rotation in SAC and been on 3 teams in 4 years.

Feel free to give or take from this trade, even add another team in if you want but I like it

Only negative is we could lose Tyreke to FA for nothing...

LOVE. THIS. TRADE.! I agree on almost everything you said, especially the part about how good James Johnson is (he is really really good).

I don't know if Tyreke is best suited as a shooting guard/point guard though, he did great when he was a rookie, but last year I thought he struggled a bit. I believe he's more a small forward than a point guard, but maybe that'll change if Dunlap does his thing. Just to make it clear: I LOVE THIS TRADE!

Not at all a fan of Tyreke as a fit between Kemba and MKG and he doesn't seem like the type of player Cho would target
