MIN - DEN 

Post#1 » by shrink » Sat Oct 11, 2008 3:48 pm

I was just wondering what ou guys thought about this -- it'd be our part of a proposed Tinsley trade.

MIN GIVES: Collins (exp)

DEN GIVES: Steven Hunter + Chucky Atkins


Steven Hunter
2008-09 $3,862,600
2009-10 $3,696,000 (player option)

Chucky Atkins
2008-09 $3,240,000
2009-10 $3,480,000 (team option)

Collins
2008-09 $6,200,000

Hunter is a banging defensive center, and Atkins could be our third PG. Is it worth taking on the additional salary, and giving up a roster spot?

This would likely mean the end of the Ollie and Ahearn era's in Minny, which would be horrible, lol.

If they are both up before the 2010 FA period and if that is indeed what we are shooting for, I see no issues with this deal. I assume Denver's incentive is the expiring deal combined with AI's expiring would give them about $26 mil M.O.L next year.

I would pull the trigger personally
