I think this could be possable. I could be wrong but can't they both be FAs this year if they opt out? Anyway if not Bucks have plenty to get it done.

Plenty of possabilitys

Could Trade Redd or Mo for cap relief
Could Trade Yi and Simmons or Gaza for Brand
Could trade Mo, Redd, CV, Yi for Davis
Could trade 1st round pick for EB or BD or cap relief
So many possabilitys


Davis, Brand and Bogut would be a great core. We could rise to the top next season like the Celtics did. Brand would be the perfect compliment to Bogut.

How could we trade Mo and Redd for cap relief? I assume you're talking about this upcoming season

Impossible to get both. We'd be lucky to get one.

It would be awesome to get Davis, but I doubt it will ever happen.

If the Bucks traded for them its very possable cap wise if they wanted to do it. Reason I brought up Brand is bc I heard throughout the season how the Clippers love Yi and it was brought up lots of times.

Yi/Redd/#7 for Elton Brand and Cuttino Mobley.

Mo/CV/Simmons/2009 1st for Baron Davis and Kellenna Azibuke

Baron Davis/ Sessions
Charlie Bell/ Mobley
Desmond Mason/ Azibuke
Elton Brand
Andrew Bogut


I guess that would be possible...

We could trade Mo, our first, and Mason for Davis possibly then next year have him opt out and we could sign Brand. There we had both!

Redd for Baron Davis straight up works fine

Yi + Simmons + Gaza for Elton Brand also works. Bucks could also throw in the #1 pick or something diffrent.

Brand and Davis are both FAs this year if they don't exercise thier option which looks like neither of them will do. So Im sure you can get them alot cheaper since both teams could end up with nothing.

1. Because the Warriors would be jumping all over that!

2. With the pick? Possibly. Without it, we stand no chance.

Could go Redd and CV or our #1 pick. I know the Warriors like CV. Maybe Redd, CV #1 for BD and Brandon Wright or Pietrus. So many possabilitys.

I rather have Brand though then BD. I think Brand would be as perfect as it gets for a PF with Bogut. Also Love Sessions like most and with a deep PG draft we could have two good potential PGs next season.

I love Brand's game but I wouldnt be a huge fan of aquiring him at this point.

He is an aging player comming off a serious knee injury and even if he comes back strong he is only going to have a couple solid seasons before he realy shows age.When you factor in that while considering what you would have to give up to get him I say no.

Unless there was deal where we would be robbing the Clippers then sure.

Im just a bigger fan right now of starting from scratch and bottoming out.

Keep Bogut,Yi & Sessions and try to mover everyone else for young talent,cap space and draft picks.

Let Bogut,Yi Sessions and our new lottery pick develop and be the main players on the team and find what they got or get an iidea of what they got moving forward.

In doing that you win 20 games and get another top #5 next year.

Sign some solid role players over the next 2 years while your young main guys develop and by 2010 we have a rock solid young team ready to contend for the next 5 to 8 years.

We got after an Elton Brand or a Baron Davis now we win at best 45 games over the next 2 or 3 years then end up rebuilding anyway.

Im all for rebuilding with our young talent aslong as Mo and Redd are long gone. I was just saying that could be a good win now team.

Brand is coming off of an achilles tear, not a serious knee injury. How old is he? I think he would make a great addition to the team unless hes already 32 then he would only have a few years impact. Anything younger than that and I say it would be a solid add.

I could see Brand being a possibility.

If Brand is going to leave LA anyways, and is coming off the major injury I am guessing he could be had for Redd. The Clippers would get something for nothing in their case, since Brand is going to leave no matter what.

Baron Davis would be tougher IMO, GS is not looking to add on cap as they have Monte Ellis and Biedrins coming up as FA's soon. They don't want/need Redd when they already have Ellis and don't want cap killers like Bobby/Gadz. Mo-Yi don't match up salary wise.

I would play Mo at the 2, Sessions at the 1 if I could trade Redd for Brand and then draft BPA.

Curious if this happened what we have left ? Bell at SG? I think the pick was dealt. So no Mayo. So its Davis,Bell,not sure if our sf were dealt,Brand,Bogut
