Revamping the Guards 

Post#1 » by Southern Piston » Tue Jan 28, 2014 2:16 am

Bynum, Datome, and Jarebko for J Lin. I think Houston does it Jarebko and Singler are both good role players which they need, Bynum is enough of a replacement for Lin, Aaron Brooks is already out of the rotation there.
They would get better, we get a point guard that can push Jennings, a smart guy who can draw a crowd and fit our needs replacing stuckey.
Then we trade Stuckey for Afflalo.

Jennings Petrius Drummond
Afflalo Singler Smith
Lin Monroe
KCP Harrelson
Billups Mitchell
Siva

i don't get why people think orlando's content with a salary dump return for afflalo. dude is tearing it up right now and is on an extremely reasonable contract.

and lin's contract is backloaded. i'd want no part of it. he wouldn't really solve anything for us.

I agree with the first part but Lin's contract is only back-loaded for the owner, it counts the same every year against the cap, $8.5M I believe it is.

If orlando dosent get a trade thats worth it to them I can see them using AA as a trade chip to move up in the draft.

Lin's contract is not backloaded.

Lin's contract is pretty much the same as Jennings, except it goes against Gores on the last year which shouldn't be a problem since he'll make it in jersey sales from Asia. It goes around 8.4 mil a year when it's all said and done. Plus, he was tearing it up before his injury and he's slowly coming back to form. He really is a solid player and was in the running for 6MOTY before his injury.

I think we need a good defensive PG, not Lin, but I take Lin over Jennings over and over again, he's got a better BB IQ by far.
