How about a 3 team trade? Minnesota: Beasley+Pekovic+1st round pick (need to negotiate protection) to New Orleans New Orleans: Okafor+2nd round pick to Denver, Jason Smith to (tbd) Denver: Aflalo to Minnesota, filler+pick to (tbd)
Oops, sorry guys forgot about the roster chart. I'll try to do it tomorrow so there are no confusion with line-ups.
Alright. We just need to make salaries match and I need to work out pick protection with New Orleans. As far as the Denver pick, how do you feel about a 2013 1st round top 20 protected, roll over to two 2nd round picks alternating years (2014 & 2016)
Alright. I can take Jason Smith and about $6M more if the Nuggets need to make money match Minnesota receives Aaron Afflalo and 2013 1st Round pick (top 20 protected, or two 2nd round picks) from Denver, Jason Smith from New Orleans Denver receives Emeka Okafor and 2nd Round pick from New Orleans New Orleans receives Michael Beasley, Nikola Pekovic, and 2013 1st Round pick (top 10 protected, top 5, no protection) from Minnesota Ubigman just waiting on your approval and it's a done deal.
Raptors ~ Jonas Valanciunas & Linas Kleiza's crap contract ...for... Donatas Motiejunas, Hasheem Thabeet (expiring to make the money match) & NY's 2013
You have a shorter contract? I can do 2 or 3 years, but I think Al for 4 years might be a little much. If you don't have a more movable contract how about a 2012 2nd round pick and we can add a top 45 or 50 protection to the possible 2014 & 2016 2nd round picks.
If you take Al I can remove protection on the first rounder and you can take the 2nd rounder I get from New Orleans.
Nuggets roster: PG Andre Miller SG Dwayne Wade SF Danilo Gallinari PF Kenyon Martin / Udonis Haslem C Emeka Okafor / Chris Anderson
