There is no way that Faried is worth the #5 pick in this year's draft even with Portland's future pick

[Karmaloop]

If I didn't know any better, I'd think the OP was a Nuggets fan. Somehow Lawson, Faried, and the PDX 2016 1st are wroth Mudiay, Stauskas, and Winslow.

You forgot to add that Henny gets fired immediately for doing such thing and Denver makes out like bandits

Seriously though there is no way that trade happens, I am a Faried fan and don't think him/his contract is even worth a 1st rd pick.

(Strictly talking Faried) Maybe just maybe if Henny see's him working well with Vuc (which I and many posters will disagree on) Denver can ask for cap space a prospect and a second rd pick.

Something along the lines of...

Faried

for

Ridnour (Fully un-guaranteed/waived)
B Gordon (Fully un-guaranteed/waived)
Harkless
#51

Business could also be had if Denver really wants Mudiay and swap picks with Orlando.

#7
Faried

for

#5
#51
Ridnour (Fully un-guaranteed/waived)
B Gordon (Fully un-guaranteed/waived)

This is why you shouldn't do mocks with trades. They are impossible to predict and most end up with really lopsided trades.
