Trade 1: ORL sends Vuc, Fournier, Ennis to DAL
DAL sends KP, Tyrell Terry, James Johnson to ORL
Trade 2: ORL sends AG to MIN, MCW and Gary Clark to NOLA
MIN sends McDaniels to ORL, Beasley to NOLA
NOLA sends NAW and Bledsoe to ORL
I think each team gets some of what they're wanting...defense, shooting, positional depth, financial flexibility, in each direction.
Maybe we can unload Aminu by adding a second to a team needing solid vet PF, we'll be deep at PF. There would be room for Cole to get time at SG as well. Bamba buys himself more time to develop and take pressure off of KP. Imagine an occasional frontline of Isaac, KP, Bamba?
Next year ORL...Fultz/Bledsoe/Anthony
NAW, Terry
'21 high lottery pick, TRoss, Bacon
Isaac, McDaniels, Okeke
Porzingis, Bamba, Birch

I like what you’ve done here. I don’t think NOLA give up NAW, unfortunately. I think he’s part of their future plans.
With the future lineup I’d be fielding Bamba/KP/Isaac as the front court. Good luck trying to score against that if they can all stay healthy. They’d just need a superstar in the backcourt to pull it all together.

NAW is the big mystery piece...it's not like he was a high pick and it's not like he's even really done much yet. For me, I guess it's the SGA similarity (assumption) that makes me think he's something. Doesn't start. Doesn't play a lot of minutes. Numbers are pretty pedestrian but...something. I like Hart too but NAW seems like the bigger prospect.

Rumor is NO is high on NAW. Part of the reason they are listening to offers on their guards to get him more playing time.
I don't think this trade is too far off AG = Mcdaniel + Beasley = NAW + Bledsoe. Actually that is too much for AG. I am not even sure Beasley + AG straight up gets it done, and that is knowing they need a defensive minded 4 ....Maybe, but Beasley is really showing some scoring abilities this year. If we could move AG to Minny I think we should just cut NO out and keep Beasley.
Ironically, former Magic legend Jarred Vanderbilt, is starting look ok at the 4 for Minny.
I doubt the Magic make a move until the offseason.wolves_89 wrote:jonbob17 wrote:Skybox wrote:

I don't see any chance the Wolves would trade Beasley for Gordon straight up let alone add McDaniels (who has been really good on defense and looks like can shoot the 3). Any Gordon to the Wolves deal is extremely unlikely to include Beasley, McDaniels, or Vanderbilt.
