    If we could throw bodies at Green/Pachulia/West @ GSW, we could tire them out on their offense.
    http://www.espn.com/nba/tradeMachine?tradeId=y845oxnn

    Anderson and Williams could net us some big bodies on expiring contracts, that will not wear our the big bodies that we currently have on our roster, ie PJ/Nene. Johnson can play as a starter in limited minutes with his funky 3PT shot (though Ryno is better obviously). Booker can play backup 4/5 to spell Nene on alternating nights the same way Black does now, and we can let Black sit back in the 3rd reserve role he should be in.

    Mbah A Moute can jump into the backup 3/Small Ball 4 based on matchups with GSW, in which we will need to match up. He can play against Klay or Iguadala.

    WIth CP3 and Harden's increased offense to the starters, Ariza/Johnson/Capela will present a stout defense and Johnson should provide enough offense and enough movement on that end. Now CP3 and Harden can have their own pick men on their respective sides of the court for pick and rolls without worrying about Anderson body taking a beating and getting injured.

    Plus Johnson's been at the top of the East heap with Boston for years and we could use some of the tough mentality come WCF time.

    Maybe that’s referring to Cash Considerations who we traded to Portland?

    Is Morey dumb then? According to cyberx, he doesn’t view Anderson as all that integral or impactful either.

    Would you pack with a first round pick and take Zach R and Vince C from Kings?

    So since we are more than likely not going to trade Anderson, because you know, his contract is terrible for the production he provides, will Tilman Fertitta have to go to locker room after every game and give Anderson a hug and a pep talk like he did for Green?

    some of you may take everything cyberx posts literally. that's not the case here. dont make it seem like everything he posts is 100% correct and happening. I replied to Deuce previously about this very comment he posted

    I just looked up Appela. We can get one for less than $200. A bargain! Let's get this done.

    JJ Reddick Anderson straight up works. Would Philly take that?

    This would gut our team... why the hell would we give up two of our most important pieces when we can straight up sign Lebron this summer?

    yup, and even if he could, that trade still wouldn’t be able to go through due to salary cap restraints

    I'd give that up for Marvin Williams alone, I'd think he'd be great for this team and can play full time PF.

    Ya i remember that, it was ryno. Although he has shot it a little more the last 2 games.
    Still feels timid whenever he does shoot it, and with this new news it shed a little light on why. If i had the feeling i was on the trade block the year my team has an ok chance to win a title i wouldnt be happy either.
    Maybe he is trying to drive his trade value to the sewers.
