    Kobe Bryant, John Wall, Ben Wallace, Von Wafer, Tony Allen

    for

    Eric Gordon, Tony Parker, Marcin Gortat, Kirk Hinrich, Anthony Morrow


    If you changed your mind. Salaries should work.

    Addresses a ton of your needs and Gordon is still a top 10-5 shooting guard.

    You could trade Gortat for Mcgee and get more value for him as well (if you really still want Mcgee over Gortat)

    I do want a more solid team, and that is why I will decline.

    Hey this might work well for both you guys. I'm not sure how much cap space you have, but salaries are close.

    Kirk Hinrich, Chase Budinger, JJ Hickson

    Jeff Green, Austin Daye, Joel Anthony

    I feel like that would be a downgrade for JMC.
    Bud>Daye

    My reasoning was that Kirk is a better backup PG over Chalmers and he can also play SG. That would move Chandler to SF full time, with Bud backing him up. Bud could also play the 2. Hickson is a pretty good replacement for Green considering he would log most minutes at the 4 anyway.

    Only trying to help:)

    VGB out David West, Greg Oden, Mike Conley, Ian Mahinmi

    Torque out Andrew Bogut, Anderson Varajao, Goran Dragic
    Torque in Marcin Gortat, David West, Mike Conley

    RedNation out Tayshaun Prince, Channing Frye, Javale Mcgee, Gary Neal
    Rednation in Roy Hibbert, Kirk Hinrich, Greg Oden, Chase Budinger

    Jmcballer out Marcin Gortat, Roy Hibbert, Kirk Hinrich, Darren Collison, Chase Budinger
    Jmcballer in Andrew Bogut, Channing Frye, Goran Dragic, Ian Mahimni, Gary Neal

    VBG you could start Brand and have Varajao, Mcgee off the bench.
    Collison
    Brewer
    Tayshaun
    Varajao
    Mcgee

    You could aslo give Tayshaun a bulk of the minutes and play Granger at the 4. You would have tons of options.
    Collison for Conley makes the salary work and are about the same level, Collison is better imo, but just my opinion.


    Torque loses Bogut, but Gortat is a very good defensive center.(his PER is actually pretty close to Noah's.) David West is much better than Varajao so it evens out IMO, Mike Conley is an upgrade over Goran.

    RedNation gets upgrades at center and a big upgrade at backup point guard. Bud is a decent replacement for Tayshaun, and would work well with Wade as a starter.

    Jmcballer loses some talent, but lands Bogut and a couple of serviceable players.

    Eh...don't think that trade is worth me downgrading from Bogut to Gortat. I think you are underrating Bogut's defense...he's a complete stud.

    That is an interesting trade. My team would become really flexible.

    Would you be interested in a Jordan + Varejao for West + Mahinmi deal?

    Nope. If I had a scoring center, sure but with Noah not really.

    I am aware of how good Bogut is. Look at how much JMC gives up for him. Judging by your proposals to VGB you are severely underrating West. I just don't think you have the pieces on your bench to land him. Do you honestly think Jordan + Varajao = David West?
