Flynn
Hollins
Wilkins


Different approach. We've seen the Martin for Love/Al swaps. Why not do the more logical approach of Flynn for a SG? While I'm not a fan of Martin at all as he seems to be a 1 way player made of glass this approach would be great for MN. Check it.

Al/Dally
Love
Iggy
Martin
Sessions

MN:
Dally improves the front line play.

Sessions is a good player MN won't get full value for him in a trade and with rubio 1 year away Flynn is a luxury for the team. MN could certainly get a good return on flynn with the way he has played this year.

Plus MN still has a decent shot at wall. Let me run down the possible draft lineups with this trade.

#1 pick
Al/Dally
Love
Iggy
Martin
Wall/sessions - (Rubio in a year)

#1 pick + trade Rubio for rights to someone in this years draft
Al/Dally - Aldrich(from rubio trade)
Love
Iggy - Johnson(or from rubio trade)
Martin
Wall/sessions

#2 pick
Al/Dally
Love
Iggy
Martin/Turner
sessions - (Rubio in a year)

#3 pick
Al/Dally
Love
Iggy/Johnson
Martin
sessions - (Rubio in a year)

#4 pick
Al/Dally/Aldrich
Love
Iggy
Martin
sessions - (Rubio in a year)

I like this scenario if we land wall...
#1 pick + trade Rubio for rights to someone in this years draft
Al/Dally - Aldrich(optional from rubio trade)
Love
Iggy
Martin
Wall/sessions

Most fans would give expirings + pick for Iggy + Dally. This would eliminate cap space next year. Why not search for an additional upgrade since capspace will be gone anyway. Would anyone give Flynn for Martin knowing we have other PG options a very capable PG in Sessions, Rubio overseas, and a decent chance at wall?

Kevin Martin:
-on a good contract even by new contract standards... if he was ever healthy enough to play.
-works great in our offensive system as he would play well with al, love, and iggy.

Iggy
-been discussed in many threads no need to rehash

And it only costs us 40 million in salary next year for those 3.

I would rather just get one stud wing, and then wait for the ping pong balls to determine who we get. Hopefully we could get a nice shooter, and Evan Turner to be a stud. I wouldn't want all that money locked up in Martin and Iggy and then draft Turner or Johnson..
