Report: Lue for Bogans?

[aaprigs311]

BTW outside opinion but with Bogut hurt and Redd done, I think you trade Jefferson for young talent/picks and play the young guys and let the year run its course from there.

If it were only that easy..

Yeah Lue isn't our answer to Nelson. Lue is our answer to third string pg duty.

Nelson goes down, we need another PG. Redd goes down, you guys could use another SG. We are willing to trade Bogans. You guys are willing to trade Lue. Trade

The question is are you willing to take Gadzuric and a 2nd round pick for Tony Battie as part of the deal. He's not much of an upgrade, but at this point we'd take any upgrade we could get at the 5.

Not that you or I could swing deals for our respective teams, but opinion-wise, do you think a Gadzuric, Lue and our 2nd round pick would work for Battie and Bogans?

I doubt it because our bigmen after Battie are...... Gortat and Foyle

Deals done according to RealGm. We get some cash as well.

I personally wouldn't add on Gadzuric I like Battie. I mean, they are both back-up bigs, but I know what I have in Battie and I think he does his role just fine and he is happy and content with that role. Does that make any sense? Idk much about Gadzuric and a 2nd rounder isn't enough to entice me to trade a guy I'm comfortable with for an unknown.

The trade is official now via wiretap so that won't happen either.

Does this make it official?

Oops. Guess I'm a minute or too late. Sorry.

We drafted Bogans and traded him to Orlando for Cash on draft day. Bogans to make his return to Milwaukee and have the best 2nd half of the season of his career.

Now if we could only get back another one of our past 2nd round picks like Flip Murray for Malik Allen. Allen is a Skiles type player, so doubt that happens and Murray is a valuable piece for Atlanta.

I just want Sessions to move back to the PG position, so I'm all for any trade that makes that happens. Getting a SG that can down a three would certainly be a nice addition to the lineup. Bogans and a healthy Bell would allow Sessions to return to the 1, especially if we trade Lue.

Getting Ramon back to facilitating the offense is an important part of his maturation process and we are getting away from that by having him play the SG position. Any trade that gets him back to the 1 and becoming a distributor of the ball and facilitator of the offense is a good trade.

Ramon can work on improving his outside shot during the off-season.

Did we send them CV?

I can understand that and now know it won't happen because the trade is official and they were not part of the trade and neither were any draft picks.

I don't know about Lue being a mere backup for you guys though after reading this:

The Magic organization believes Jameer Nelson should have surgery and not attempt to play through his shoulder injury.

Dwight Howard echoed the sentiment as well.

"I think the likelihood of Jameer coming back is slim and none," Howard said.

Magic fan here. All I know is KeBo is the man and Im said to see him go. He was our Bruce Bowen. He plays hard all the time. He just got hurt. And couldnt get back in the rotation.

Just for a barometer on bucks feelings on Redd:

Lets say hypothetically you have to have Redd on the team the next 2 years at his current salary. No trades.

Would u replace Redd with Bogans, meaning:

1. U pay Bogans what Redd will get the next 2 seasons
2. U dont have Redd for the next 2 seasons
3. Trade value is not accounted for, just the player playing for the bucks
4. assuming both are healthy at the start of next season also
