Rush and S. Jones for Sessions works. You are working with pretty small salaries in any trade of Rush for (Sessions/Hill/Augustine)trades. It shouldn't be that hard to find insignificant pieces to make these trades work under the CBA if teams agree that the basic exchange works.

MN/Utah deal is the TPE+2 1sts for Al.

Sessions will need to be a quick cap clearing move+future minor asset. Incredibly heavily protected pick with the cap clear might be what we are looking for.

by "we" I mean the wolves, I do not like the trade. Sessions is a very, very good young pg. He just is not a fit in this goofy triangle because his lack of outside shot.

Wasn't my intent to cast these guys as equals. Hill is worth more than Rush in my opinion and I'm not sure how you would add the requisit additional value. But right now Spurs are really thin on the wing and Rush could theoretically be this generation's Bruce Bowen.

Augustine isn't the first guy to implode playing for Brown. Think Jalen Rose under Brown and the turn around his career had when Larry Bird took over. You would have to believe in some upside with him.

I'm not sure Sessions for Rush is that far off.


I'd like to keep Rush and move Mike Dunleavy Jr.


Yes, I can understand the preference but, now the list of potetial point guards has completely changed so that salaries can match up. Or you are using someone's cap space. That's a whole new set of considerations.

Ridnour gone as well...jus signed with Minny...Bobcats interested in Sessions now. If that happens we might as well forget it. Collison aint getting traded either...especially if Chris Paul gets traded to Portland or Orlando.

Could the Pacers think they could get into the discussion of a Chris Paul trade? If New Orleans makes a move in this direction one would think they would want to move Okafor too. In return they would want cap flexibility and young assets. We have both.

To this point Portland and Orlando have been noted as potential trade partners. I can't see how Orlando gets this done. They have no young assets to give and Okafor would be a terrible fit with Howard. Portland, on the other hand could make a pretty strong offer. What does everyone think Portland is prepared to give and could we compete with a Portland offer?

Sorry, there's not anyone on the roster currently who is worth less than 0 enough to trade for Calderon. Better to just run TJ Ford out there 35 minutes a night all season long until AJ Price is healthy near the end, and run with a clean contract slate in the offseason than to deal with Calderon for 3 more years.

I might think about Calderon for Ford if Toronto adds sweetener. Calderon and Davis for Ford or Calderon and a #1 in 2011 or 12 plus $3 million. Now I'm saying I'd think about it not do it. 8-)

Toronto would definitely give you Calderon. Probably for just about anyone on your roster.

However, I HIGHLY doubt the Raptors would dump Jack. His salary makes him more valuable to Toronto. Toronto's either dumping Calderon or packaging Jack to get back as much talent and promise as possible.

Will Bynum! Let's go for it!

Guy is legit, better than Stuckey arguably. They might not match.
