Griffin can rebound but has average/short standing reach/Wingspan to alter shots.

Spencer Hawes can block some shots and shoot but his defense is no way near Jordan's.

I can see Knicks going for him... Maybe Stoudemire, Shumpert, Hardaway for Jordan, Crawford, filler.

Suns may have some assets but they won't trade to a division rival and not without fleecing the Suns.

It wouldnt be the first time we fleeced them for an upcoming free agent. Situation was different with Bledsoe before since we werent much competition and he hadnt proven himself like DJ but still they traded him to us and took the risk

The Suns/Bucks/Clippers trade wouldnt of happened if Bucks werent willing to give Reddick..

From Suns perspective ... yes Suns fleeced them because they got Bledsoe for Dudley..
But Clippers point of view, they got Reddick and Ducley for Bledsoe.... the way Bledsoe turned out, they'll feel bad.. but had they kept Bledsoe, Bledsoe wouldn't be producing the numbers he does due to being a backup...

But Clippers have learnt and would ask for the farm for Deandre Jordan if they trade with the Suns, they dont want to strengthen their rival.

Dream Front court (current of course)
Ibaka and Cousins
or
Davis and Gasol

All time would be
David Robinson, Charles Barkley lol

Brook Lopez with 16 points 8 rebounds 3 blocks 7/8 FGs in 18 minutes so far...

Lopez next to Len and playing some backup minutes at the C would be a massive upgrade to Len/Plumlee....

No trade for Roy Hibbert. Dragic says he's the easiest player to a finish a layup over. Says he doesn't jump very high, lol.
And here's the whole article if you are bored and want to know more about the Dragon brothers.

I still would make a run for David West. The sake of letting Warren team up with West would be worth it alone. (mentor, etc.)

Yeah, thats a bit like having the girl next door in your wildest sex fantasy, but hey, each to his own.

Both good players, even complement each other, but not even top 5 at their positions, I'd say.

It wasn't a fantasy, it was a realistic dream.

http://espn.go.com/nba/tradeMachine?tradeId=nreptzu
Suns- Anthony , Love, Amundson

Knicks- Dragic, tucker , waiters, suns 1st

Cavs- bledsoe, Morris , Morris

Thomas/ennis
Green/Goodwin
Anthony/ warren
Love/ Amundson
Len/ plumlee

Now that is an offensive team!!! And a dream

Fo-Real · Post #76 » by **Fo-Real** » Sat Jan 3, 2015 2:56 pm

No way the Suns gut thier team for an injured Melo (talked is shutting it down for the season) Love who would almost definitely leave this offseason, and I dont even have to put a reason or comment for Lou.... We are looking for positive tweaks... not complete overhaul. Something around either Dragic or Bled.. only if its great return.... easily can see including Tucker... and with how the team and the Morris boys have interacted, I think they are close to untouchable. They are becoming the heart and soul of this team... a
Backbone.

But why? I think you might be asked to leave.

Post #78 » by **Qwigglez** » Sat Jan 3, 2015 3:09 pm

That would team would be so scary to watch. I can't imagine having both Thomas and Green start. Then throw in Melo and Love. It would be horrendous, lol. Everyone would be chucking threes on iso plays all day long.

@SportsWhispers: #Clippers are considering a shakeup to their roster. They would absolutely consider trading Jordan or Crawford

If true, this is a great opportunity to get an All Star C. Jordan is a C like Tyson Chandler, perfect for a team with an strong backcourt, he doesn't need touches and he is a monster at the boards. If we trade for him, we will have his bird rights so we can sign him easily after this season.
Len can play backup C and even play some minutes with Jordan at the same time. Plumlee gone.

Good Lord, can Horny teach him how to shoot a FT? A career 42.5% FT shooter? Ouch... Jordan needs to hire that one dude who used to shoot FTs underhand way back in the day. Claims he can improve anyone's FT% within a year or two. The player would just have to overcome the taunting and jibes he would take from other players, but heck, if he's making the NBA Max, he'd be able to tell just about every other player to go 'pack sand'. 42.5% I just can't get over that...I'm sure there is worse somewhere, but I haven't seen it.

Anyway, even with that horrendous FT%, you can't teach nearly 14 rebs/gm. He'd be a force for us, and yeah, if Len could handle playing 8-10 minutes at the 4 relieving Kieff/Marcus, and the other 14-16 minutes in relief of Jordan at the 5, everybody gets their minutes. Here's two options, one with Crawford, and one without. (Why is Crawford deemed 'untradable'? His contract isn't that bad. Anyway, if it is a tough-to-move contract, might help us sway them)

http://espn.go.com/nba/tradeMachine?tradeId=onyewgo

We trade 4 (Double Dragon, Green, Plum) players to their 3 (Crawford, Jordan, Douglas-Roberts)...they can dump one of their guys to make it work.

http://espn.go.com/nba/tradeMachine?tradeId=n5ckhh8

Jordan for Plums and IT...we can add picks if needed.

Trade 1 leaves us with:

IT/Ennis
EB/Crawford/Goodwin
PJ/Warren/Douglas-Roberts
Kieff(25min)/Mook(15min)/Len(8min)/Randolph
Jordan(34min)/Len(14min)
