    Utah doesn't exactly have a need for 4 more big men.

    Lets say they dont, and just sign him as a free agent this Summer. Then they can move 2 PF's(maybe Morris & 2Pat) during draft day to improve their position, acquire future picks, or acquire a high upside young wing to groom for a few years.

    Dmo, Aldrich, Smith, NY 2nd rd picks for Gortat and Brown

    Suns can tank for Noel/Shabazz/Zeller/McLemore, cut the payroll, and acquire prospects in Dmo and Smith. Aldrich is salary filler. They need to rebuild badly instead of making band-aid moves.

    We can use our cap space to shore up that 4 spot with a legit P&R player (because Asik and Ppat are terrible at it) while still remaining potentially big players in the 2014 free agency. We can showcase our team to big FAs (Lebron) and get our young core team playoff experience. Brown is a spark off the bench.

    Lin/Douglas
    Harden/Brown
    Parsons/Delfino
    Gortat/Morris/Jones
    Asik/Ppat

    Aldrich, Patterson and Morrris
    ..For..
    Marcin Gortat

    Do you think the Suns would do it? Gortat's contract is up at next season's end plus he is not happy there. They get a look a Aldrich, The whole Morris brothers thing, plus Patterson. We may want to add Smith or a pick to get it done.

    alright, alright. Ppat, morris, one case of lex industries imported wine for manimal? he can't stretch the floor but he will give us defensive energy.

    Why the nuggets do it? Because houston needs a PF

    why the rockets do it? the nuggets get a physical specimen in Ppat. Tough as nails, just look at his shoulders.

    Amir Johnson

    Toronto does it to give Ed Davis more playing time.
    We do it to get a starting PF.

    Hou- out Ppat, Delfino
    Tor- out Amir, Acy

    We have to trade Delfino to get Tor to bite? Morris, Anderson, Acy try to backup SF minutes.
