    Nothing makes sense until and unless we get a monster center that can control the defensive paint and boards.

    Well that is OK with me, I don't think they care for Montrezl either. But they are deep in a lot of spots it seems so where is the sure place they want pieces back?

    If I had to move dekker or trez to a 3rd team i wouldn't care. As long as the package is basically the same. I would love a cheaper price but I still think it takes a 1st. It works brew/kj/1st for Gallo straight also and I would prefer that but I don't mind moving dekker in order to obtain Gallo, similar to how I didn't mind trading Harrell for Ibaka.

    This. This is what we are missing from the forward position and why dekker has been productive despite not being able to shoot because he can slash and put the ball on the dribble.

    Gallo is just much better at these skill sets. He provides added wrinkles to the offense and added efficiency.

    He's been my top trade target for a while now.

    Yep, that's also true (kinda forgot to say it there but i metioned in another post
    ).

    And obviously if it works without trading Dekker/Trez would be better lol

    I wonder what offers the Nuggets are getting for Gallo though, should be lower than Ibaka but who knows...

    I honestly think it should be similar packages if only slightly lower. They seem equal talents

    I believe so. I'm sure Houston/Morey are hoping Dunleavy is free at the last minute.....or after trade deadline buy-out. I feel Dunleavy wanted to come to D'Antoni system at time of trade to Atlanta from Cavs.

    Reposting this here since it's maybe more relevant...

    Speaking about the MLE, what kind of player do you guys think will be available for that price though? I'm not really sure it has that much sense to operate over the cap when guys like Mahinmi and Biyombo got a 16/17Mx contract last summer...i think this MLE would be good for Euro player coming over but i'm not really sure you're going to sign a good bench player with that money, unless it's a special case like Nene...

    Speaking about Euro player btw, aside for Sergio, this guy should also be an interesting target, especially for the MLE.

    Cavs can't trade K Love to Knicks with D-Rose; But if Rose gets moved (somehow) look for Love x Melo.

    Probably Melo to Clips will be the move x Austin Rivers/Crawford......probably why C Lee is available.

    RoLo is our answer

    RoLo and Grant for our first, our second plus Brewer and Ennis works
    Then
    Casspi (and 2nd if we can get it) for McDaniel

    Clean house and gain depth at the 5, 2-4, and 1 in two moves. We need the other teams to say yes now. LOL

    Brewer gets 15.7 mins a game while Dunleavy gets 16.1 mins a game. Dunleavy initially refused
    to show up to the Hawks. They talked him into playing as a way to build up trade value.

    Maybe he is happy to be there now......or maybe he wants to get a release to join a fun...run and
    gun Rockets team that has been pursuing him for years. You say no chance; but I've seen stranger
    things happen. His contract is less than $5 mil this year & non guaranteed for next year. We agree
    to disagree.

    How many mins are you looking for from a pick up at Center. Boban averaged 9.7 mins last season & 7.2 mins
    this year. I'm not against getting Boban just FYI.

    I think Boban can give us 25 and Nene 20.

    Usually this site blocks the player from being used if they are not eligible to be traded....I.e. Bobby Brown.

    Just picking your brain basketballholic. Not trying to be confrontational. Do you see reason for both
    Boban and Nene? Would it be as insurance in case Nene gets hurt?

    Ok....I did the same with RealGM and it allow the trade. Is it possible that he was traded in time. Because
    I questioned the same symbol on another player and it stated the mark meant the player could refuse the trade.
    I would have to look at the earlier post on the said player.

    You're the silly one. Dunleavy can be traded at any time up until the deadline.
