MCW and a future 2nd for Kyle O'Quinn and Jerian Grant?

The Pelicans have the perfect player to fit next to Monroe in Davis, so they basically turn the expiring Anderson and eating Meeks into a chance to see if Monroe and Davis can be as god of a big man tandem as I suspect. If so the Pelicans will be very, very interesting.
The Pistons make a push for a run at the playoffs by getting a legit scorer off the bench along with upgrading to Anderson in the starting line up which allows Ilyasova to move to the bench to give them great depth. The cost for this is their 1st along with having to eat Young's deal.
The Bucks turn Monroe into a decent 1st and pursue a better build next off season.
The Lakers decide to swing for the fences for 2016 free agency by freeing up over $12 million in additional cap room.

Honestly, what center is AD not a perfect pairing for?
Asik.
You can think of a better PF to put next to Asik?

I have noticed that on many Knicks fans saying this. Are you guys having some kind of paranoia seeing Giannis traveling all the time?

Ummm....they are called euro steps and usually he only needs two to get from the arc to the basket.

Monroe is a better player in the low post, and a better passer, he will do better with a star-studded case. Mayo will thrive in his ideal role as 6th man, Westbrook slides to a more natural 2-guard spot.
Kanter and Henson pair well, EK can't protect the paint, but can guard opposing centers, shoot with range, score in the paint well if needed. Henson has limited range, but provides good defense, rebounding.
Your rotations are pretty far off, but I don't hate it for OKC. Have a hard time seeing why MIL does it though.

Waiters I think could be more interesting in terms of potential compared to OJ Mayo who is a finished product. Should there be compensation added to make up for MCW? Maybe, though it's hard to say what his value is. ROY, but has he improved? What teams would he start on ? (aside for PG starved Knicks). OKC would only fit if they can move a dif point guard to 2-guard (their weakest position)

Kanter isn't any better of a fit than Monroe and Waiters is hot garbage. There's not a chance the Bucks do it.

He and AD complimented each other nicely for team USA. I'm just not sure what deal would work and if NO would really be heading in the right direction. Truth is AD is not a great defender. And Asik is a very large contract if we are talking backup.
But if the price is right, I am on board no doubt.
I'd have to imagine Asik is in the out box if this deal happens? I mean Evans and Asik for Monroe wouldn't be okay for both clubs.
I'm not taking back Asik or Evans...Ship them to the a third team if we are dealing here.

Milwaukee trades:
Monroe
Milwaukee receives:
Myers Leonard
The Bucks get a 3 pt shooting center who will be a restricted free-agent and cut $13 million or get a TPE of the same amount.
New Orleans trades:
Tyreke Evans
Alexis Ajinca
New Orleans receives:
Greg Monroe
Allen Crabbe
The Pelicans get Monroe who is a nice compliment to AD and as a local a good marketing asset. Crabbe provides much needed 3pt shooting.
Portland trades:
Myers Leonard
Allen Crabbe
Portland receives:
Tyreke Evans
Alexis Ajinca
I think Evans would be a very good fit alongside either or both McCollum and Lillard. Portland even saves some money in moving up towards the salary floor.
