    George would be a dream signing, but it's not gonna happen. I've really liked Granger for a long time and hope he recovers and resumes a stellar career. But at this stage he's not who we need, as other posters have correctly noted. Yes, Granger+Parsons > Parsons, but that doesn't say anything. You could fill in the blank for Granger.

    Parsons + Cap space > Parsons + Granger

    how does trading for Granger free up more cap space for 2014?

    We need a 4 who can bang, defend and score in the paint.

    BECAUSE HE EXPIRES NEXT SEASON.

    Sorry for posting in caps, but it's been said over and over and over again in any sensible discussion involving trading for Granger.

    He expire next season. If you want to sign a Granger level FA in 2913, you need to offer a multi-year contract, thus eliminating cap space in 2014.

    I don't really understand going after Granger. I mean we have a younger & cheaper version of him in Parsons. Maybe its a buy low sell high opportunity, kind of a better version of Marcus Camby situation last year. Get Granger for a bench player & a 2nd rounder trade him off in off season for a protected 1st rounder.

    If you think about get Granger here and move Parsons to the 4 cause Patterson only weighs ten pounds more than Parsons
