most easy guess and logical trade would be KMart to Wolves for someone on that roaster not named Kevin "Douchebag" Love. Kmart and RA and meant to be together, he thrives under Adelman's system. We might end up with a risky Beasley who have his mood swings to control. I think Lee is ready to start for this team, he did start for the Orlando team that went to the Finals.
Pacers should just trade Granger for Courtney + someone else (Flynn, Hill, Thabeet) so they can develop Paul George at his natural position. Courtney would be a good fit since plays both sides of the ball and he's a hometown kid.
Lee Not going to Pacers Indiana Pacers acquiring guard Leandro Barbosa in a trade with Toronto Raptors - so looks like Lee not going to Pacers.
Any reports how good of a defender Granger is? Don't much about his D. Well if he is a mediocre one.... him next to Martin will be our death sentence.
Don't understand why we're talking about Granger at this point. We don't need him. We got a 2nd rounder making about $900,000 a year manning the SF position just fine and showing loads of potential. Granger is not a shooting guard and he's a mediocre defender at the 3. He'd be terrible defending the SG. Just doesn't make sense. We could probably trade martin for him but no reason to unless we could push him somewhere else for a serious upgrade in the paint.
I think we are targeting Pekovic. Dalembert is neither the long term nor short term solution at C. Presumably we have players Adelman would want- Martin, Budinger.
Adrian Wojnarowski @WojYahooNBA Reply Retweet Favorite · Open Several teams say New Orleans is getting more realistic on asking price for Chris Kaman. "They won't get a 1st for him," one official says. Boom! Get'er done Morey.
A Pekovic for Martin + fillers would be exactly what we need. While this may look like a long shot for us, never underestimate the bond between father and son. Hopefully, they will want to be reunited.
rockets won't do jack… all these "assests" we have and no one wants the doo doo… i hope Morey's stock plummets in some of your heads after today… and if he pulls off a trade that actually makes us better, and i mean better, not a side step trade for more "assests" either.. i will eat crow and enjoy it..
Adrian Wojnarowski @Twitter: Several contenders chasing Ray Allen. Some offering a good young player, some offering 1st round pick. If Celts get both, they may move him. I would offer Martin + 2nd round pick (T'Wolves) to get Ray Allen ...
What trade rumors has Patterson been named in? I thought he was considered untouchable by the Rockets?
