    GAHHH I think so too I just hate to lose Ray...I'll think some more about it.

    Paul / Dragic
    Lee
    LeBron / Odom
    Millsap / Odom
    C Bogut / Varejao

    It's a nice trade for my depth certainly...

    Nah doesn't seem like anything would work..only guy I want is Wade. Accept my offer...it provides you with serious upgrades and a great replacement for Wade in Lee.

    No thanks. Varejao and odom aren't worth wade. If I wanted that I would just trade jmc gortat and odom and sg for wade.

    Spooner any way you can work a trade where I get Odom but don't get Ray Allen? I'm having too tough a time letting him go.

    Currently you have no one in the post. Jamal Crawford and Courtney Lee are pretty good if not great 3 point shooters (ignore the numbers with Crawford because he takes bad shots. On these team he will never have to take a bad shot).

    Millsap and Odom can space the floor and can also provide post scoring. Pretty the best change of pace big man in the NBA.

    Plus defensively, only Millsap is not an amazing defensive force

    I just think I have enough spacing when I have Ray and Paul on the perimeter. Yes, you're right, I don't have someone to reliably score in the post...but I mean, I have the two very best playmakers in the game on the same team, and the best shooter - I don't think scoring will be a problem.

    Plus, my current starting lineup is obscene defensively. I mean, who is going to score on me?

    Not really. Sorry.



    Very true. But you do lack any sort of interior offensive presence. Maybe Im focusing too much on this years playoffs but Ray Ray really disappointed me. Your team is obscene either way.

    It's just a question of how obscene haha.

    Just can't give up Allen. Sorry. How can I get Odom otherwise. He's out of position for you - You should start Iggy at the 3.

    Dude Torque, I think that is a really nice trade for you. I was trying to be as objective as I could. Courtney Lee defends and puts in a high percentage what more would you want out of your 5th option? I think he would get a TON of open shot's with the inclusion of Millsap in your offense. I am worried that people will say your one weakness is post O and Millsap would spread the floor beautifully for Paul/Lebron. Believe it or not, I think your spacing would improve. Varajao and Bogut, would allow people to help on penetration with their bigs. Now they can't and that is scary. Courtney Lee would have less pressure on him than Allen would, so I would expect very good results from him. He is already a great shooter and a better defender over allen.


    If you changed your mind, I would keep Crawford and give out Murphy. That murphy contract is ugly. Then you would have Crawford, Odom, Varajao off the bench. That is rediculous. You could do many combo's at the 3, 4 and 5 then.

    I was trying to be objective as possible, as I don't have a team and thought this would work. You are getting a TON of tallent for Allen. Just trying to help:)
