Any team interested in him at all? I'd take back basically anyone not a total albatross contract who made any sense. Can add McGary/Huestis/seconds. He managed to make my Christmas slightly less merry.

They'd lose a ball handler, but I think I'd do that.

Waiters and Novak for Stuckey. (http://espn.go.com/nba/tradeMachine?tradeId=oojv4kb)

Thunder basically got a new Waiters but a bit more reliable. Stuckey is on a really cheap contract considering massive cap jump that is about to happen. Pacers basically got a new Stephenson. Pacers do this trade with hope Vogel could turn Waiters into something useful.

I'd even say Morrow is available if the value is there.

Is Waiters as bad as he looked yesterday? That guy is useless-I think he is salary filler at this point-what a terrible #4 pick

Waiters & Augustin for Calderon if the NYK want to dump Calderon. OKC gets a shooter,open up a roster spot &
save about $7.3K. And no to Novak instead of Augustin because NYK would only have 1 PG (Grant) & 1 combo G Gall
to play the point.

By my math OKC saves a pro-rated $700k in salary and another $700K in tax -- tho if they use the roster spot those savings go away. And of course they take on Calderon's contract next year. I don't know that $$$ savings is something the Thunder get here.

Pondexter, Denver 2016 2nd, Philly 2017 2nd for Waiters?

OKC gets 2 high 2nds and saves money and take a flier on Pondexter.

NOP takes a flier on Waiters and dumps Pondexter's deal.

That would be the price to pay or they can keep having Waiter chucking away. Also they have 4 players they are not playing.
That's 4 roster they all not using. They would just have to wait & fill it when they can use 10 day deals.

Pondexter and Singler is quite a bit of money and 2 rosters spots tied up in guys you never want to play. Makes the 2nds less valuable as well due to less developmental spots available.

I feel like 2 2nds to dump Pondexter is about right value-wise, but I'm sure its correct directionally. I don't see a lot of value in Waiters for them.

i'd do that in a heartbeat. Pondexter is one of my favourite roleplayers: Knows his limitations and plays to his strenghts.

Umm, we don't have Den's pick or our 2nd next year to do this. Welcome back Ish

Edit: Okay, and I have no idea why my reply is above your comment.

Why wouldn't you want to play Pondexter?
