Tweak up the J. Terry trade Hou in: D. Williams 2 2nd rounders Tor in: Terry, D. Mo Sac in: Hopson, Powell and/or Gee, and Fields
My concern is that Motiejunas takes one more year to truly flourish (in 2015-16) and we give up on him. I do think he will be an above average pf.
He needs to correct core. When he jumps, I see back bends so he loses full reach on some effort plays for rebounds and attacking the basket.
Yea I fell u in order to contend one of dmo or jones will become expandable with that being said I think D Mo potential and height will be more intriguing
re-work the terry trade as follows. Houston out: Jones, capella, gee, hopson, powell, pellies pick Houston in: Dragic Sacremento out: terry, nyk2nd, sac2nd Sacremento in: Gee, Powell Denver out: Gallinari Denver in: tj warren, jones, capella, hopson, nyk2nd, sac2nd phoenix out: dragic, tj warren phoenix in: gallinari, terry, pellies pick Follow that up by acquiring ilyasova via the TPE. for canaan and a future 2nd. Basic 7-man rotation Dragic/Beverley Harden/dragic Ariza/ilyasova/harden Ilyasova/dmo Dwight/dmo End of rotation 8- troy daniels 9- joey dorsey 10- jeff adrien End of bench 11- garcia 12- ish d-League Johnson Covington black
Uhmmm. ... Because they have 4 quality pgs, and absolutely no wing talent. They receive a star level wing and a guaranteed lottery pick for one of their many pgs. One who will likely leave at the end of the year. I thought for sure any resistance would be from Denver, but Phoenix?
3 team trade Gee, Hopson and Covington to Kings West and Hill(TPE) to Rockets Jones, Powell, Canaan and 2 seconds to Pacers Sign O'neal with BAE PG: Hill, Beverley, Smith SG: Harden, Daniels, Garcia SF: Ariza, Papanikolaou PF: West, Motiejunas, Adrian C : Howard, O'Neal Inactive: Johnson, Dorsey
Alonzo Gee has been (or will soon be) traded to Sacramento in this Jason Terry deal. Along with either Josh Powell or Scotty Hopson, I believe. Besides, Indiana isn't throwing in the towel anytime soon. If they are looking lousy in January/February, I can see David West and George Hill shopped around but my guess is that Larry Bird overvalues both of these guys.
PJ and TJ?? As for SG, Suns prefer to run 2 point guard system hence all the ones and combo guards on roster.
I don't think you guys realize how perfect Ricky Rubio is for this team. He can't shoot whatsoever. We don't need that though. He can set up Jones, Harden, Howard, Ariza, all our bench players and that's something we don't ever have. A passing point guard. Also bringing Rubio helps us lure Llull over. Trade some pieces and get some quality backups and the team looks like this: Trade Jones and 1st (NOP) and fillers for Ilyasova and Greek Freak Trade other picks to Phoenix for Miles Plumlee Rubio Harden Ariza Ilyasova Howard Bench: Beverley Llull Antentokoumpo Motiejunas/Adrien Plumlee Rest of rotation: Dorsey Smith Covington Daniels Capela
Also find a way to fit in Rubio in that trade for Ilyasova. Honestly, we'd have to give up some quality players, maybe even DMo. Which I'd be okay with because Adrien put up solid numbers in Milwaukee.
Gee, Hopson, Powell to Kings Terry, Jones, Capela and Pelicans 1st to Celtics Rondo, Bass(TPE) and 2 seconds to Rockets Sign O'Neal and cut Smith PG: Rondo, Beverley SG: Harden, Daniels, Garcia SF: Ariza, Papaniko PF: Bass, Motiejunas, Adrian C : Howard, O'Neal, Dorsey Inactive: Canaan, Johnson
