Gordon can be great off the bench scoring if we lose jr or even add more if jr stays, and thomas is just another big with,kmart,sheed and kt all gone. Still athletic and a willing shot blocker.. For the bobcats neither one plays really and amare if nothing can put some fans in the seats over there,,, Stranger trades have happened.

Chandler, Novak, and Felton for DeAndre, Caron, and Willie Green.

Rondo
Parker
Love
Aldridge
Faried (would Denver match a max offer?)
Marc Gasol

Will be some hard decisions come the offeseason. I think they will need to explore the possibility of trading anyone (including Anthony and/or Chandler) to get better. Unlikely that Anthony will be dealt under Dolan's watch...but I would not be surprised if the team at least considers trading Chandler.

Trading Chandler would be a huge step back. So huge that, it potentially bumps us out of the playoffs. I don't see that happening. Melo will never be traded unless he pulls a Marbury and starts eating vaseline.
We have Shump, Camby's contract and '13 first round pick to make moves. The mini-mid level will only get you a bad young player or old veteran. You ain't adding a future piece with that.
DISABLED PLAYER EXCEPTION -- This exception allows a team which is over the cap to replace a disabled player who will be out for the remainder of that season (it can also be granted in the event of a player's death). This exception is granted by the league, based on an application from the team and a determination by an NBA-designated physician that the player is substantially more likely than not to be unable to play through the following June 15.
If this exception is granted, the team can acquire one player, via either trade or free agent signing, to replace the disabled player:
•The team may sign a free agent for one season only, for 50% of the disabled player's salary or the amount of the Non-Taxpayer Mid-Level exception, whichever is less.
•The team may trade for a player in the last season of his contract only (including any option years), who is making no more than 50% plus $100,000 of the disabled player's salary, or the amount of the Non-Taxpayer Mid-Level exception plus $100,000, whichever is less.
Teams can apply for this exception from July 1 through January 15, and cannot apply after January 15. Once granted, the exception expires when a player is acquired, when the disabled player is traded or returns to the team, or on March 15 of that season, whichever comes first. This exception is granted on a season-by-season basis -- if the player will also be out the following season, the team needs to apply for this exception again the following season.
This exception can only be granted to the team for which the player was playing when his injury or illness was known, or reasonably should have become known. A team cannot trade for an injured player and subsequently apply for a Disabled Player exception for that player.
If a team's application for a disabled player exception is denied, the team must wait 90 days before submitting another request related to the same player, and then only for a new injury or aggravation of the same injury. Whether the application was approved or denied, the team can apply again (including for the same injury) the following season.
If the disabled player comes back sooner than expected he may be activated immediately, and the replacement player is not affected.
