Ideas to get involved with Minny & Cleveland as 3rd party? 

Post#1 » by HMFFL » Fri Jul 11, 2014 9:42 pm

Cleveland needs a third team finger involved so they can keep Wiggins. I believe Wiggins will need to be involved in any trade regardless.
However, if we can become a third party, we can possibly benefit, but how so?

Personally, no way in hell I help Lebron, Love, Kyrie, Wiggins be a team we have to face for years. I don't beleive there is anything we could get from either team that would justify assisting in making a superteam.

They only way I could see the Hawks benefiting is if we could somehow get Dion Waiters to come to Atlanta without giving up Teague,Millsap, Horford, or Krover.
I don't see how that happens. because if we are involved I know Minn would demand at least one of Sap or Horford to be included especially if they are not getting Wiggins.

So I would say Cleveland would have to give Wiggins and Atlanta could do a sign and trade with Mack and maybe Mike Scott. unless we trade Payne (I do not want to do that).
so it would be Wiggins, Mack, Scott going to Minn. Love going to Cleveland, and Waiters coming to Atlanta.

I'd love any move that got us D Waiters. He's young enough to be considered a prospect for the future, but able to contribute now.

it'd cost us a draft pick to accomplish. But I'd be okay with Jenkins and a future draft pick to get him.

It's worth noting that the draft rights to Bebe Nogueria would be very helpful in a trade of this nature. As would the expiring contract of Louis Williams.

For the record, I'd be more than okay if we included Millsap in trade talks for Waiters. We get a productive young player, and with the extra cap space could pursue a young Center like Monroe...

There is nothing in this for us and Minny should not do the trade without Wiggins. They have better offers. Love really does not have the leverage people claim he does. All he can do is not sign an extension.

Harrison Barnes and David Lee has been reported.

Boston has been reported to offer a mixture of young players and multiple draft picks which could offer more.

We can offer more than Waiters and extras.
