Why for CHA: Get an upgrade over Mullens in Anderson.

Why for DEN: Buyer's remorse on Gallo and McGee, an experienced All Star like Gasol can make them contenders. Taylor is already a good role player on a very nice contract.

Why for LAL: Get younger with Bargnani, Gallinari and Fields, the last two having already played under MDA. Get rid of Blake's contract.

Why for NOH: GM's favourite McGee is a better partner next to Davis than Anderson or Lopez, Blake adds needed depth at PG.

Why for TOR: Free up cap space while getting a one year look at Mullens. Finally get a reliable SF in MWP.

I think the Hornets should consider pairing Davis with a C, but I think they could get better value for Anderson.

I also don't think Denver would make the deal because they'd get older and still wouldn't be a top contender.

I don't think the Bobcats want to try to improve now, although I guess they'd take this for the good value.

Bargs and Gallo are such similar players that I don't like the fit for the Lakers.

I don't like this at all for Charlotte.

Pass.

Charlotte passes.

Denver says no... Giving up two long term pieces for someone who won't push them over the top.

Gasol doesn't fit their offense.

Wow, I think this is pretty great for Charlotte. Andersen is better then Mullens.

Toronto and Denver look bad. Toronto specifically.

KOTB -- no for me.

...but not at the cost of Taylor. We won't consider him a throw in.

Great trade for CHA here, sending out basically nothing for Anderson. It's too good for them honestly, they are simply sucking value here and would get cut out.

It's not bad for DEN, it would make them better right now, but is it the direction they want to go?

This is a total Kupchak-type trade to make, where they get good pieces and send one seemingly good piece
with some miscellaneous crap. It's too good for them really but Mitch seems to get these deals done regularly.

This makes a lot of sense for them to do, McGee and The Brow might combine for 10 blocks a night with their ridiculous athleticism.

This part of the trade has absolutely no shot of happening. MWP=negative value and Mullens and Diop are simply warm bodies. Bargs may need to go but at least dude can light up a scoreboard. Gotta give them something for him.

I'm not sure what I think as a Hornets fan. I don't really like it to be honest. I don't feel McGee adds so much more than Lopez that we need to take on his salary. And Ryan Anderson is such an important part of the team. Not to mention the personality difference going from such a good guy in Ryan Anderson to such an enigma like McGee.

I think the value is fine and well thought out, I just don't personally like it for the Hornets. I think we're better off sticking with Lopez and having the offensive punch of Anderson.
