First let me start by saying, I know a bunch of you are very passionate about keeping them. This is not intended to make you upset. Put your passions aside and acknowledge that this is just a trade exercise and not a place to debate heatedly why we should or shouldn't keep them.

Put your GM hats on! Let's make this a game!

The goal is to find a trade deadline deal for Evan and/or Vucevic that you think could help this team. Simple as that.

If you like a trade idea that someone posts, then simply give that post an And1! Bad ideas should be left alone and laughed at.

There's no time limit for judging, but you should find satisfaction if your post receives a bunch of And1s. The trade ideas with the most And1s will be later shared in the Trades and Transaction forum for further opinion.

Now go show Henny and WeHam what's up by proving that you can do a better job than they were/are capable of. Evan and Vuc are valuable, but just how valuable???

Well on the general board there was talk about some rumor about Clippers trade Jordan for Tristan Thompson.

so Lets say Id trade Vuc+DJ or Mack+Mario(for salary purpose) for Jordan
relatively Vuc+Ross would work also

Fournier for Dwight Powell + Barea
Vuc for Danny Green+ Lauvergne
Barea would be a seamless fit running our 2nd unit and closing out games and adds playoff experience.
Green is the ideal 3&D guy either in starting line up or off the bench and he is also proven himself in the playoffs.
Powell and Lauvergne both provide depth to the big men off the bench. Start Biyambo and see if he can prove himself without having Vuc putting pressure on him.

fantasy land
Schroder and Ilyasova for our 1-2-3 combo fail Payton-Fournier and Mario

shush maybe they would think its still a day after we drafted Mario

Vuc+Fournier in one trade
For Cousins+filler overpaid Hill and our beloved Nelson we give up way to much just to end up with Hill contract though risky trade

Paul George for Fournier and Mario. It works on espn trade machine. I know it's risky but atleast we could make a run at the playoffs this year and get some valuable playoff experience for our young guys. If George walks well atleast we got one of the longer contracts off our books in Fournier.

Sent from my SM-G930T using RealGM mobile app

Vucevic and hezonja for maker and snell

Vuc/DJ/Mario for Jordan/Thornwell

Fournier for Alec Burks/Ekpe Udoh

Elf/Mack/Iwundu
Simmons/Burks/Thornwell
Ross/Afflalo
Gordon/Isaac/Speights
Jordan/Biz/Udoh/Birch

We would really upgrade defensively

Vuc, Dj + 2nd
For
Cousins and Nelson

Vuc for Terry Rozier + salary filler

Nola could consider a trade like that if they feel Cousins was gonna walk.

If I were New Orleans I’d rather let him walk.

Fournier for Gasol + Dejounte Murray

Vuc nor Fournier have great value. I'm looking at fit and salary cap going forward.

Powell and Barea know their roles. Fournier thinks he is a star but he is a glorified roll player who would not take the back seat to a younger player with more potential.

Deal 1
ORL: G.Hill + Z.Randolph
SAC: Jordan + Augustin + Mario
LAC: Vuc + Ross

Deal 2
ORL: Hood + Burks
UTA: Fournier


ORLANDO
Biyombo/Speights
Gordon/Randolph
Isaac/Simmons
Hood/Burks/Afflalo
Hill/Payton/Mack

There's $50M tied up in Hill + Randolph + Biyombo for the next 2-3 years, so this is a real 'win now' move that's done nothing invest in more youth other than Hood (due for an extension) and Burks (injury plagued).

But whatevs. I'd watch that team.

Some interesting scenarios so far...

What about this:

ORL gets: D'Angelo Russell / Timofey Mozgov

BRK get: Nikola Vucevic / Elfrid Payton / Mario Hezonja

Works on the Trade Machine. http://www.espn.com/nba/tradeMachine?tradeId=ydz5wwv4

ORL gets Russell who could be out of the season (or at least most of it). They also have to eat the 3 years left on Mozgov's deal. But a future of Russell, Isaac and Gordon could be lightning in a bottle. ORL throws in the OKC 1st if that helps to seal the deal.

BRK gets Vucevic who could replace the scoring punch they lost when Russell got hurt + Elf and Mario who could flourish in a change of scenery.
