Others would have to be involved but I guess a Haywood for Joe Johnson swap would make some sense for both teams

Not sure if the salaries match up perfectly but something like

Mavs
out: Haywood + Caron
in: Joe Johnson (maybe something like a Zaza for Stevenson too)

Hawks:
out: Johnson
in: Steven Jackson and Haywood

Bobcats:
in: Caron
out: Jackson

Jason Richardson has a 14.4 mil expiring contract.

Stop defending it, there's no chance it would ever happen.

And Joe Johnson for Eddy Curry, Landry Fields, Wilson Chandler makes sense?lol

Nobody is taking the Joe Johnson mistake off your hands. Deal with it, teams are calling for Josh Smith and Al and that's it.

$9,800,000

$10,600,000

$11,400,000

$12,200,000

Nice investment coming off your bench.

Joe, Josh, and Al combine for $42 million dollars in salary next season. So unless you have a plan to dump one of those or pretty much every other player on the roster then that just isn't going to work.


Sure. I'm saying we need to make some space, whether or not that requires trading Smoove. How? Not sure. But Marc Gasol would be perfect alongside Horford and against the big centers of the East.

Even with the mistake called "turk"... We have had one of the hardest if not the hardest first 21 games in the nba schedule with the most back to backs games. Look it up. And we are still 8-9? Let us not forget who won when the suns and hawks meet. Go ahead and win your 45 games this year. But we both know that you guys will taken out in the second round by either the magic, heat or celtics. Heck, even the Pacers look better than you guys.

Anyways, Hedo is more of a tradeable piece than Joe Johnson.. Hedo can do pretty much the same things that jj is doing now. And he's 82 mil cheaper.. So, enjoy your team now, cause as much as the hawks fans want to deny it. Josh Smith is going to be traded. So enjoy Smooth, cause he's gonna be traded. Book it!

You came all the way here from PHO just to show how much of a troll you can be? Isn't there a Justin Bieber concert you can go to?

Shouldn't you change your sig, seeing as your team opted to let Amare walk so it could pay a bunch of small forwards the same amount of money?

It won't happen.
NYK wants Carmelo, so they need to keep Curry as expiring if they make a trade.

They can have Felton/Joe/Anthony/Stoudemire, but they need to not trade Curry.
Felton/Joe/Stoudemire would make 42M in 2011-12, so it leaves enough for Anthony, but they would need to trade all their current contracts, and no expiring.

Or they have to be sure they will be able to make a sign-and-trade for Anthony, which is a possibility, DEN certainly would prefer to get Galinari and Turiaf for example than nothing (if all the other players under contracts are traded).
