Trade Redd for Randolph
Both have expiring contracts but redd's is insured saving them $14 million.

Grizzles side: You now package the 12, 25 and 28 for the Timberwolves 4 and draft Demarcus Cousins(giving the Twolves 5 1st round picks, netting them according to the latest mock draft Luke Babbit, Paul George, Kevin Seraphin, Craig Brackins and Larry Sanders).

Bucks side: Huge potential for next year

Timberwolves side: Not enamored with anybody at their spot, and SF is a position of need, only question for them is, is Luke Babbit, Craig Brackins, and Larry Sanders more valuable than Wesley Johnson?

This deal makes sense for everyone.

Gives Memphis a core of
Gasol
Cousins
Gay
Mayo
Conley
In about 5 years look out.
They'd be free of any overbearing contracts next year.

For us
Bogut (Thomas, Randolph)
Randolph (Ersan, Mbah a Moute)
Mbah a Moute (Delfino, Draft George or Damion James)
SG (we'd probably bring back Salmons, Stackhouse back up, Draft Henry or Anderson)
J (Ridnour or sign back up)

Have an 8 man rotation of
Bogut
Randolph
Delfino
Illysova
Mbah a Moute
SG
Stackhouse
Jennings

With a back up PG , Thomas and Number 15 getting 5-12 each

Minnesota
Jefferson
Love
Rookie (gomes)
Rookie (Brewer)
Rookie (Flynn)
Possible incumbents in parentheses
Most important for Minnesota a true rebuilding process

How does having 5 first round picks ever make sense, especially when none of them are high. This could only happen if we had deals in place for the incoming picks, which is unlikely.

Counter offer: MN gives you 23, 45, and 56 for #12.

It sucks don't it.

You'd have to include Gasol. Otherwise it's not fair. :lol:

Sorry you didn't catch my point of view. The 12, 25 & 28 aren't anywhere near the ballpark for 4. If you go to the Grizz board where the Bucks fan first posted this tripe, I pointed that out. It's unrealistic across the board. So don't take me to task, it's the OP's garbage.

I didn't get the impression that he was directing his response at you, but at Fearthebucks.

Yeah, I think he was referring to the OP. He may have missed that it was a Bucks fan that proposed it. Terrible trade and this thread should just die.

I'm just saying that I gave a lot of contributions to his campaign to get him elected and we had a non-spoken arrangement for certain deeds to be done on my behalf. Killing TheFranchise21 was a good start, but his job isn't done yet...

I almost locked it but I thought I'd go the passive-aggressive route first and see what happens.

Good idea. I'll lock it instead.
