NBA teams ready to play 'Let's Make a Deal'

[JES12]

The Bucks, who are apparently open to dealing Charlie Villanueva, Bobby Simmons, Charlie Bell or Dan Gadzuric, will have a plethora of options besides Pietrus. That

[JES12]

Yeah, um...only Charlie V is better than Pietrus out of that group. Charlie Bell will always be a role player and Bobby Simmons has a history of injury. They may be able to get Randolph, Hughes or even Ben Wallace with that group.

[HMFFL]

Yes, for us Charlie V would be the only one worth mentioning. While I like Charlie Bell, we need to stay away from adding the smaller guards, but Charlie can be moved down the line.

I highly doubt Dallas makes a trade now that we are playing so well, even though I would lke to see them go after a player like Villenueva or Simmons (if we traded KVH back to them)

I read the blurb in hoopshype this morning, and thought the same thing that the rest of you are thinking. Charlie V might look pretty good in a Mavs uniform. Don't think he's ever going to be an all-star, but he's a decent young big man. Could play center if we go small, can play power forward behind Dirk. Depending on what we had to give up for him, he would be a nice addition to our c/pf rotation (Damp, Diop, Dirk, Bass, Charlie). That would be a pretty versatile group. It might create a minutes crunch, but that's not the worst problem in the world to have.

Wonder what it might take to get him?

[JES12]

He is paid $2,715,000, which is within our $2.64 mil + 100K trade exception and since Bass can be traded using the min player exception, a trade of Charlie V for Bass + TE works salary wise and position wise, but how much of an improvement is that? And would either team bite?

I like Charlie's size, but it is meh to me.

[FGump]

No thanks. CV is widely reputed to be extremely lazy, apathetic on defense, and undisciplined. That makes him hard to play with and explains why Toronto would trade a young big like him, and then Milwaukee the same. I'd rather have a hard worker like Bass who is just as talented, and they already know his role here.

I like Dan Gadzuric but how is his contract?

[elwudl]

We do not need CV and we do not need Gadzuric.

[HMFFL]

I like Dan Gadzuric but how is his contract?

Pretty bad considering how injury prone he is. It would be a long term investment of around 7 million per year.

[JapanAir21]

Only reason I asked is because if Diop or Dampier gets hurt, we'd be in trouble (ala, last year). But I didn't know he had such a hefty contract.
