    Yeah...I don't think it will happen.


    But....Orlando could take Exum at #3 and have Wiggins dangling at #4. Then Orlando can get MCW (they need a PG) plus #10, and #25 for #4. They may do that if Exum is gone since they've already got Oladipo dug in at the 2. (I said "may".)

    What, you don't like regurgitated information? Perhaps a little BS here and there (e.g - Dwight having second thoughts about leaving L.A, which he tweeted)

    I'd rather see the Rockets get involved as a third team in a Kevin Love too GS or Chicago deal pawning off Asik and Lin to make the money in the deal work while getting back a young role player with a much cheaper contract like Green/Barnes, Butler/Dunleavy Jr and then having all that cap space to upgrade the PG/PF starting spots and the MLE and BAE for the bench roles.

    Welp, there is a considerable difference between those 4 and "somone else" because outside o those 4 (and the couple of theoretically FA but realistically never gonna go anywhere else guys like Dirk ) the best FA after those guys are Lowry (very unlikely given history.) Monroe / Bledsoe ( RFA that will most likely be matched anyway.) and Rudy Gay / Paul Pierce / Pau Gasol / Loul Deng. I suppose Deng is potentially worth a look but given how Morey lines up his contracts I really doubt he'll sign a long term contract this summer of major money (aka more than the MLE) for anyone that isn't a clear star, and obviously those 4 guys either aren't or no longer are clear stars.

    It is a possible trade if we're really in play for those guys, but like GSW did last summer it's basically a trade proposal you keep there and only pull the trigger in a S&T type trade. But it seems extremely unlikely that Morey would just dump first and hope for a FA, this ain't the summer of 2012.

    Also, as this trade deadline showed, moving that final year's payment is a real issue with most owners, so the odds of any one team taking both seems to be dubious at best.
