Look like magic/hawks/celtics primary tank candidates in the east

Don't forget Philly....I don't see the Celtics being a part of that unless they make more moves including getting rid of rondo

dont forget about the Bucks. Sanders might be their best player heading in next season....

GSW aren't trading away any of their young players. Their goal is to play all 3 with Dwight. They're probably only offering picks to take on those expiring contracts.

Would you guys take on Bogut for a future 1st? Maybe 2? I'd do so cause there's still a chance they don't land Dwight. We could easily flip Bogut at the deadline for another asset as well.

Overall, I don't think they move anyone.

I don't know, I think they have to. They can't trade their 2014 1st apparently. If they can dump 20mil+ in salaries without giving up one of their young guys than just give their GM executive of the year already.

well then they wont get D12. Nobody is going to do GSW a favor by just taking some worthless high 20's draft pick. Barnes will most likely have to be in the deal. You can still be contenders with D12, klay, steph & Lee

GS will have to give up a quality player just to dump Jefferson and Biedrins, no way teams take on those 2 worthless players

For the picks in next year's draft, absolutely. Still really good assets in return.

They can't trade their 2014 1st. Actually maybe they can. The Steipen rule only applies to future drafts so they can trade their 2014 1st.

No way they get someone to take those contracts without giving up something . I'm sure they are gonna act all tough but in the end its who do they want more Barnes/Thompson or Dwight. We can get one of those guys

i'll take bogut and a 2014 first for TPE
then we could flip bogut at the deadline for something else good

i doubt we're making any more moves or facilitating any trade or signing. as much as it would be nice to steal barnes or bogut, i think the roster we have now is the roster we're starting the season with for the most part.

May not have to wait that long. Big men are a premium in the league, and Bogut had a hell of a playoffs. I could see a lot of teams showing interest in Bogut. We could get a really nice return for him.

apparently they cant trade their 2014 1st

Yea they can. Steipen rule only applies to future drafts.

Ok so people think they will trade Bogut and a first round 2014 pick for our TPE? Goodness **** gracious...

Of course they would if it meant they were getting Dwight.

I'd try to trade with the Warriors as well. I would try to trade AA and BBD for some expirings. We'll have a lot of cap space next off season if I remember correctly, but this will give us more.

I would like to see the Magic try to go for Paul George.

Um, Ok. Are people that drunk today? Does anyone really think that they CANT and WONT do better than a TPE? I mean you guys understand getting Dwight would mean championship or bust right? And that also means they will need warm bodies on the bench and not a TPE?

why is that so outrageous? Bogut means nothing to them if they get dwight and the pick would be late 1st round
