    Which players?

    A direct trade like Jones+Brewer for Tucker and Teletovic or something with Booker would be nice.

    Harden + Dwight for Curry, Green, and Thompson.

    This would be a good step forward for us.

    Anderson may help but this team has problems at PG. Plus with harden on team doesn't matter about PG bc he holds ball on all plays. The offense is snagnet .

    Honestly I'm over Lawson. He just doesn't do anything to help this team. I would try to trade him ASAP for a player who can help. Hell I would do a trade for Jack straight up. At least he isn't afraid to shoot, he's a leader and plays solid defense.

    I really wish Andeson was attainable too

    how about this trade


    http://espn.go.com/nba/tradeMachine?tradeId=hlfelfu


    Houston In: E.Llyasova/G.Vasquez
    Houston Out: TJones/Ty Lawson

    Detroit
    In: M.Morris
    Out: Illyasova

    Phoenix
    In: JBayless/TJones
    out: MMorris

    Milwaukee:
    In: Ty Lawson
    Out: G.Vasquez/Bayless


    Houston gets 2 shooters that have Career 36+% from three. Ideally Id want bayless but to make the money work, taking Vasquez works out. Also, Vasquez is 6'6 which gives us some height. Llyasova is a perfect fit in our system. We still end up with capflexibility but not as much as letting TY just expire.


    Suns do it because they want to rid themselves of the other morris

    Detroit does it to make the Other morris happy

    Milwaukee does this because they need to increase their pace. They have a glut of PG's and they end up with and additional 3M in capspace at year end.

    Not bad, the Rockets have expressed interest in E.Ilyasova/G.Vasquez before.

    BTW, the Bucks gave up a 1st round pick to get Vazquez from Toronto. Baffling trade.

    I feel like it is a fair trade for all parts but i might have beer googles on.

    Rather have Bayless then Vasquez. Send Vaquez to the Suns with Bayless coming here and I'd like that deal.

    Don't see the incentive for the Pistons though, Markieff isn't a stretch 4 and they need on in SVG's system.

    Bayless would be great. Vasquez has been terrible this year, but he ought to bounce back. Neither are great defenders but Bayless would be my preference.

    I can DEFINITELY see why we would jump all over this, just as I can see THEM laughing AT us to submission! IMHO this trade is truly lopsided.

    GET'R DONE MURPHY!!!

    i agree i want bayless but his contract size wont allow us to get him in the scenario.. someone can change it and move other players around but this was the cleanest way i could think of.

    Actually checking it, you have it backwards, the original trade you proposed doesn't work. But if you swap Bayless to the Rockets and Vasquez to the Suns then it does. That is the cleanest way for all teams involed.

    Vasquez makes 6.6 mill, Bayless only 3 million.

    But again, I don't see the incentive for Detroit. They love Sova, he is a perfect fit for their system, he is a high cost for risky Markieff trade. I don't think they bite, possibly if the Suns and Rockets threw in picks. At the same time who knows how interested the Bucks would be, they might not want Lawson and may value Bayless alone more. Need Malakas input on that.

    This makes sense on all front except Lawson to Milwaukee. With Kidd having autonomy over the team, his track record has shown that he values length and defense. Lawson is the opposite of those things.

    Like the idea, but I feel like Jason Kidd would be an anti-Lawson type of guy.
