MEM get: Mehmet Okur, Jason Hart, and Charlie Villanueva

MIL get: Pau Gasol

UTA get: Andrew Bogut and Damon Stoudamire

Would you do this?

The only Grizzly I want is Rudy Gay. He's a straight up freak. I'd love to see Redd get traded for him.

I don't even like Pau's game very much, but yes, yes I would. We win the talent in this one.

Edit: And Pau's unappealing no-defense pouting wouldn't be any worse than anything we're already dealing with.

Yep. When Yi develops you have a nice trio of Redd/Yi/Gasol and you can still add a 2008 lottery pick to that.

In that scenario, you can finally argue Redd as your second best player. Hopefully Yi would push him to third best.

Any trade has to include one of our crappy contracts....we have lots to choose from depending on your price range...

Plus Memphis is one of the very few NBA cities a player could leave to come to Milwaukee and not be totally depressed/unprepared for what the NBA here is really like

The salaries on this deal don't exactly work.....but could be fixed with some other minor players being added....

Bogut and CV for Pau from our perspective?

Yeah....sign me up. This is one of the more creative 3-way deals since I could see it making sense for Utah and Milwaukee. Memphis I'm not sure on......
