    +1

    David Lee (6'9), Shawn Marion (6'7), and Dejuan Blair (6'7) is by far the smallest PF/C rotation. Arjun is going to need to trade for some size if he wants to compete.

    It's usually like this when no trades are being made.

    RocketsRed what do you think of this as a hypothetical deal?

    spooner out Kevin Love, Brook Lopez, 8(#21)
    spooner in Andrew Bogut, Andre Iguodala, Elton Brand

    rockets red out Paul Peirce, Andrew Bogut
    rockets red in Kevin Love, Shawn Marion

    Da_juice out Andre Iguodala, Elton Brand, Kendrick Perkins, D.J Augustine, Thabo Sefalosha
    Da_juice in Brook Lopez, Paul Peirce, Jrue Holiday, Dejaun Blair (8#21)

    Arjun in Kendrick Perkins, D.J. Augustine, Thabo Sefalosha
    Arjun out Shawn Marion, Jrue Holiday, Dejaun Blair

    I would decline. I like klove but Marion does not interest me one bit. Also, Paul pierce is pretty much untouchable at this point.

    Spooner benefits far more than anyone else.

    There's no way Da_Juice agrees to this. His starting SG is Kevin Martin. He needs Iggy to compensate for defensive purposes. Pierce can't come close to replacing Iggy's defensive impact. And not only that, you're also removing Sefalosha, a serviceable defender.

    Sefolosha is a pretty good defender.

    really tough one, but I gotta go with Ramon Sessions.

    I'm also looking for another 7th round pick or a higher 8th round pick if anyone has an offer. I have the 20th pick for the 8th round.

    Would you consider an Odom-Bogut type swap?

    Classic Morey-move. Treating players like assets already.

    If we decide to do that, we need to re-randomize the draft order for the coaches round. It's not fair for the people with the very top players to automatically get the top coaches too. Everyone needs a fighting chance.

    I say yes to coaches if there is a 9th round following the same draft order :)

    Well, we're gonna be devising the basic coaching strategy anyway so coaches shouldnt make much of a difference
