A strong offer from the 76ers

[SparksFly87]

Philly trades Evan Turner and Spencer Hawes

For

Derrick Williams, Jose Barea and Greg Stiesma.



Timberwolves get a big young shooting guard with a allaround game with a desire o be great. HAwes a young skilled center who is very coachable.

[[RCG]]

Yes please. Even though I really like D.Will.

[The J Rocka]

Sounds good to me. Hawes' contract will be off the books after next season too and he serves as a solid C off the bench.

[Devilzsidewalk]

I like the value. I'd be worried bringing in Hawes at 6.5 mil gives the Wolves an excuse to let Pekovic walk though.

Nope centers are premium.



Both sides agree done deal!

[rugbyrugger23]

Trade doesn't move mountains for me...which I think Kahn needs to do for many reasons...rather then debate that here, I will say yes to this trade.

I think Wolves would seriously need to consider offers for Pek if they did this trade. Find an uber athletic 4/5 and depth at SF for Pek.

[Klomp]

Even better than my Pek deal!

who plays PF AK or CJ?

[jade_hippo]

Pek and Hawes could share the court no problem. Hawes is like Love-lite.

[The J Rocka]

who plays PF AK or CJ?

AK & Cunningham can fill in until Love is back. No question.

When healthy:

Pek/Hawes/CJ
Love/Cunningham
AK/Budinger/Jello
Turner/Shved
Rubio/Ridnour

[AQuintus]

Pek/Hawes/CJ
Love/Cunningham
AK/Budinger/Jello
Turner/Shved
Rubio/Ridnour

There's one player in that starting lineup that I'd trust to consistently hit an open jumper, and he'll be recovering from a broken hand.

It's not ideal, but if that's the best offer we can get for Williams, I think you have to pull the trigger. Of course, Kahn should be exploring for better options but we're not going to shed any tears losing JJ, DWill, and Steamer if we're getting Turner back. I'm more of a fan of the 2014 FA so Hawes wouldn't be an issue.

RA can sub in Shved & Budinger as well. Move Turner to PG and let he & Shved handle the ball, instead of Ridnour/JJ.

Honestly, if that's the best we can do for Williams, I'd probably do it, but I think I'd try to turn it into a 3 team deal where Turner goes somewhere else and a decent 3 point shooter goes to Minnesota (Reddick? Danny Green? Dudley?).

I kind of doubt that Williams to Philly trade would ever come up in the real world, though, since they already have Thad Young.

Yeah not sure what Philly would do with Williams. A 3-way deal would make the most sense.

I think I've changed my mind. The Philly room is talking about trading Turner for a sack of potatoes. I don't think I like trading Williams for a .480 TS% ball-dominant wing unless his defense is very good. I would rather trade Williams or even Williams and a pick for a Dudley then take on an inefficient scorer who's value is being a ball dominant passing wing
