Hawks/Bucks

[Bentley1225]

If the Hawks can't retain Horford, ill offer this idea for them to stay competitive in 2016, create flexibility in 2017 while Bucks get a veteran backcourt player and a future asset

To Atlanta
-Greg Monroe

To Milwaukee
-Thabo Shefelosha
-2018 Minnesota 1st round pick (1-14 protected, 1-14 protected in 2019, or 2nd round picks in 2020 and 2021)

Why?
-Atlanta gets Monroe who can be potential short term C who can opt out along with Milsap in 2017. Given all the wings Atlanta took in the draft, this make Shefelosha expendable.

Schroder/FA/FA/
FA?/Hardaway/Patterson
Korver/Prince/Bembry
Milsap/Scott/Muscala
Monroe/Splitter/Tavares

-Milwaukee gets further flexibility to try and add a different type of C to mesh with other parts while getting a short term SG/SF off bench as well as a future pick from Adrian Payne trade. They can add key veterans at the PG and PF with remaining cap/exemptions.

MCW/Ennis/FA?
Middleton/Vaughn/Brogdon
Parker/Shefelosha/Inglis
Giannis/FA?/O'Bryant
FA?/Henson/Maker

Pass. I would rather just sign Dwight, Noah, Zaza or Speights.

Throw in the rights to Cordinier and you got yourself a deal.

Or don't and you still have a deal.

If Monroe brings back a 1st and a useful player, I'll be really surprised. He's been on the block for a while now. That said, teams give away 1st round picks for guys like Vazquez, Bargs, and Bellini so I'm done making definitive statements.

Are you not in the 95% that loves Cordinier from our board?

I know you're in the 50% that would trade Monroe for a new basketball lol.

I mean obviously I'd love to have his rights but its certainly not a deal breaker to getting a useful player, a first round pick and $13 million in cap space.

If we are getting both Thabo and future 1st, I would even be willing to take back Splitter if Atlanta was looking to dump him.
