dont know if anyone has seen this already, but trade 1 looks pretty good to me. Very well thought out.

[spectre]

I think they'd move Love before Jefferson...but I'd probably do Mek + 12th for Jefferson. IMO Jefferson assuming he's healthy has more value than a pick swap.

Would you guys swap Mek for Love? Rumor had it they were trying to move him for the 2nd overall (assume Thabeet?)...but Love is also supposedly like McHale's son.

I love Monta, but that trade won't work financially nor do I think LB would get along with him too well.

Well, with Love tweeting that McHale is out, maybe Minny feels like dumping both father and son? Diaw and #12 for Love and #18? I'll take that. Love is just as good a passer as Diaw, and a better rebounder and will be a better scorer in the future. But Minny would be crazy to do that swap.

So Minny gets rid of a log jam at PF by moving their best player to us, just to give us a log jam at the same spot? Boris is too good with this team to be a backup.

Not Ellis, no.

Yes to Jefferson, but highly unlikely.

No to Love-Okafot swap. I'm not comfortable with Diop-Mohammed center rotation, albeit Nazr can get only better.

Meks name keeps coming up, in trades . But i don;t think the Wolves trade Jefferson and a switch of picks. But if we had a chance at all to do it id jump on it.

A trade like this kinda puts legs on a Dally trade rumored the other day. Not thet im to sure about that one. It does replace MEK with bad contracts. Brown could handle AI he should be able to handle Dally.


Felts , DJ,
Bell, T Williams
Wallace, Diaw
Jefferson, Diaw, Alexas
Dally, Diop
Two second round picks to fill the gaps

It is interesting??

Jefferson would be a good addition and his contract matches up with EO50...that said...Diaw wanted out of Phoenix because he did not want to come off the bench...so this trade would set up exactly the same scenario (just pointing that out)...

I'm not sure why the FO would want the second trade? If they have an interest in Ellis why not just pick Curry since Ellis has shown (at best) he is a liar and wants to dictate who/what position your team can draft...not clear why any team would want that but I'm not our FO...

[dav7z]

You could start Diaw at the three and bring Wallace in as a sixth man . Talk about instant energy off the beanch. Wallace and Diaw both could play in three different positions
Both loging over 30 plus mins a game. Jefferson could play some center all so . It could really cause some match up problems.

if we could swap mek for jefferson, i would poop my pants. we would have a strong offensive frontcourt. we would have to work on 2 things at that point 1. LB would have to coach the crap of jefferson to get him to play D (his D is atrocious and combined with boris we would be very weak defensively) 2. draft or trade for a strong defensive PF to play with jefferson

[BRNC]

dav...great idea but I personally have doubts about Diaw's ability to guard other 3s...I would not be opposed though since from an injury standpoint (Crash) it might actually help him...and it would make our second unit stronger...Crash (lucky for us) is a great dude that just wants to win so I doubt it bothers him because I'm sure he'll still get his minutes...the improvement (bech standpoint) might be enough to off set the decrese of "D" at the three...I would hope that Jefferson comes back strong from the injury but I've not heard he had any problems with his recovery...I'd do the deal but I'd do it and still keep the 12 and not swap positions...(I really want T-Will)...
