    Anderson NEVER EVER was clutch..especially in the playoffs he was a near no-show for Orlando while he was there.

    Asik for Bosh anyone? He would be good spreading the floor for Howard or possibly a nice offensive option off the bench.

    I also forgot to mention... Ilyasova has shot a ridiculous 45% from 3pt range the past two seasons. That's better than Ryan Anderson's overall FG% the past two seasons.

    Miami would not go for that.

    Correct. Guess you could hope Portland or Minnesota want to trade LMA or Love. Or the Lakers are interested in dumping Pau for a bag of balls.

    How about we give the twin towers a go until the deadline and then get LMA when they are desperate!

    Be real. Miami's not giving up Bosh.

    Asik and Lin for Bosh and Chalmers would be a possibility as it addresses miami's weaknesses and the Rockets' too.

    I like Ilyasova a lot, but I don't thinm the Bucks would move him. Morey has had interest in the past if I remember correctly.

    I'm fine with all three options honestly, but I don't expect Asik and Howard to be on the floor together much. The Rockets probably start Garcia or Parsons as a stretch 4 next to Dwight and give Asik 25-30 minutes off the bench.

    Asik for Ilyasova and any of Sanders, Udoh, or Henson would be good value. I'd take Ilyasova and Udoh if we sign Dwight outright and decide to move Asik. Then save Jeremy for another rainy day.

    Thats what I was thinking. Possibly sweeten the deal with a second round pick we got from Portland. And if Bosh doesn't work out he comes off the books anyway, doesn't he? Miami certainly lacks a defensive presence in the middle that was exploited against Indiana and San Antonio. Sooner or later it will cost them by not being able to match up in the paint.

    Hate him or not, Bosh is a good fit next to Dwight, and Chalmers is a good fit next to Harden. Doesn't mean either team does it.

    Will the Bucks even consider trading Ilyasova? He would actually be a pretty good fit here as well.

    Correct, the entire big 3 has the ability to opt out in 2014.

    Ilyasova would be a good pick. Can space the floor, but isn't soft. Plays some defense. He wouldn't be a 3rd star by any means, but it seems that most 3rd stars play reduced roles anyway.

    I'd love to get Sanders too.

    They just won back to back championship.

    If they had lost to the Pacers, then I would have had some hope.

    Always liked Ilyasovas game, is he a free agent? haven't heard his name being tossed around.

    Oh, I'm not saying Miami does it. But they won game 7 without getting anything from Bosh. And it would make both teams better.
