Gallo, Mozgov, and Randolph would be the only ones I'd have even a little interest in. Is Brewer and the Memphis pick enough to pick up Gallo? It would be nice to pick up yet another '08 Draftee.
Essentially my goal would be to destroy Denver, and get another star out of the West, thus helping the Wolves. That reason alone would make me tempted to overpay in the trade.
Help me get it done without destroying our core. shrink?

Carmelo is going to be traded no matter what we do. I won't believe he will stay unless he signs a contract. This is why I would only make a trade if it improves the team in the future.

OJ Mayo is one of the best defenders in the league, hes a two way player and hes a great passer and playmaker.

Krapinsky wrote:Vazquez isn't worth anything people.
Has even given any indication that he wants to play in the NBA? No.
Is he on the rookie scale? No.
Does he have a buyout? What his's buyout? Probably a fair amount.
Despite the fashionable pose, Vazquez remains a small-town man at heart. He comes from a village of 2,000 people in Chantada, nestled in the Galicia region of Spain along the northwestern coastline. It is part of the Spanish Outback called Espana Profundo. Agriculture is the main industry.
His father, who died of skin cancer in March 2004, painted cars. His mother is a domestic worker. Although Vazquez has traveled throughout Europe for competitions, the United States was foreign territory.
The frenetic energy of Manhattan overwhelmed him.
"Yes, I was a little scared," he said, looking back. "It's not just changing cities, it's changing countries. I was thinking I would have to adapt as quickly as possible to a different lifestyle."
"Manhattan shocked us quite a bit," Toral said. "Everybody was running down the streets, and we were just looking at them [wide-eyed]."
They would come to Central Florida a day later, staying overnight at the Westin Grand Bohemian in downtown Orlando.
Vazquez seemed pleased to be in Orlando, less overwhelmed after the madness of Manhattan.

I don't particularly want to take on a high priced player like Iggy until we see what we have with Johnson, Webster and Beasley. I don't want to spend our cap space until we know what we need.

You got this all wrong, jerkstore. Word on the street is that they can get a first for Chandler.
DENVER doesn't like one or both of Gallo and Randolph -- however it will take both of them to get Melo. Both have a value that is higher than a mid-late first + Brewer. Indications from WT are that NY has found takers for either Gallo or Randolph that would give Denver a player/s that they prefer.
Thus, if MN is on that ^^^ type of deal, we would be giving up someone like Beasley for Gallo or Randolph.
Where MN can really help is absorbing Eddy Curry's contract, which would put Denver under the lux.
Consider --
Denver OUT: Anthony
Denver IN: Brewer + Gallo + Telfair #1 (via Chandler deal to anonymous 3rd team)
MN IN: Curry + Randolph
MN OUT: Telfair + Brewer
NY OUT: Curry + Gallo + Randolph + #1 (via Chandler)
NY IN: Anthony
According to Alan Hahn, a top priority for the Nuggets in any Carmelo Anthony trade is to shed enough salary to avoid paying the luxury tax this season.
Denver projects to be over the tax threshold by season's end.
"Bottom line is the Knicks have to find a way to work out a deal that results in Denver coming out of this with immediate financial savings (read: they get under the luxury tax threshold)," Hahn wrote in a Web chat. "That I know for a fact is a top priority for the Nugs."
