    Bev/Canaan
    Harden/Garcia
    Parsons/Casspi
    Melo/Jones
    Howard/Smith

    Oh man, the Melo angle just made the initial Asik trade infinitely more attractive

    :eek:

    It is possible but I think the fact other GMs are more aware of Morey....makes it harder....

    Mitch Kupchak got Gasol for Kwame and an unknown Marc.

    Melo would be an awesome addition to this lineup. A three team deal with nuggets that involves The Manimal, Imam Shumpert, Lin & Asik could be on the cards, although with the way Lin is playing I don't want to lose him...but for Melo??? Hmmmmmm.

    Lin is probably not on Melo's level and that is good in the way that Lin isn't a high volume chucker.
    He can still improve while Melo will be Melo. So I will stick with Lin for now.

    This, this, and this again.

    Stop it.

    About the best they can hope for is Millsap, Ilyasova, or Anderson.

    Stop with the Aldridge, Love, Bosh talk. That isn't happening during the season. Even in the offseason it's extremely unlikely and you're not getting them for Asik alone.

    To get those guys you would need to trade our other center.

    Turner and Hawes would be great, but I don't know if Philly would do that. They are still gonna suck with those guys sooner or later, and those guys can be players around whoever they draft.

    The ONLY way that you get a player like LMA for Asik is if LMA declines and tries to either force a trade to Houston or we're on a short list of teams with him trying to force his way out.

    If the only options are Anderson, Ilyasova or Millsap,
    I prefer win flexibility
    and take a draft pics and expirings contracts.

    next year we can land cheap in FA a PF like Gasol

    No need for Reggie Jackson on this team....useless to our squad....also we dont need 3 or 4 playes for 1 and we dont need to give 3 or 4 players for 1. Asik straight up or add Brewer.

    Talk about moving Parsons, Lin, Brooks....RIDICULOUS. Our season just started and we dont need to restart again.
