Bargnani on the block (Rumour)

[BC4CB4]

I read that the team might try and move Bargnani

With all of the sources and insider information kicking around this place, if it was written somewhere to be read, we would have already seen it, I'd think.

"I think I read somewhere that the Heat might try to move Chris Bosh at some point in the indeterminate future, but I'm not sure if what I read was made up or just a rumour from an alleged source. I'm also not sure if I read what I think I read, or if I hallucinated the whole thing."

Instant RealGM thread!

Exactly. Where did he read this rumour? Bah! Rubbish.

Bargs and Jose for Redd and a 2012 1st round pick. Saves the Raps $40 million over the next two years, and then another $21 million in Bargs' final two years. Ridiculous $ savings.

That's actually one of the more novel and well-constructed ideas that I've seen. Not sure whether Milwaukee would do it...not because of the talent involved, but Kohl has been luxury tax-adverse, and that brings them to the threshold prior to the CBA rewrite. Still, really like the idea.

"Don't know if that was made up or a rumour from a source"

.. I think his own quote speaks for itself

[Parataxis]

its one of those things, he read it somewhere, which he did; he just read it on this thread and then posted on his chat, i know this defies linear time but its the only possible way

He heard a rumour that Bargs was going to be traded for nothing.

In seriousness though, of course BC is listening to calls about Bargs - doesn't mean he's likely to say yes, but he's not the sort of guy who wouldn't consider making a big move if it helped the team.

[PdiC]

This is fantastic! An unsubstantiated rumour from a guy that read that the team might try to move Bargs and the board lights up. I Love it.

[Yeezus_]

We will find out in three hours I guess.

I don't think Scott Skiles would see it that way.

you like the idea of us giving up bargs just to unload two years of jose and get a pick in the 8-13 range? I think this is a terrible trade for us.

Joses value goes up next year anyway. he will be a valuable commodity as he can play, and will have only 1 year left on contract.

why are we are worrying about saving 21 million in bargs final 2 years?? how does that help us at all?

We end up getting a guy like donatus with the pick.
bargs and jose for donatus? terrible deal, doesn't help us get better short term or long term.

Any trade for Bargs with Bucks have to involve Jennings. Keep the 2012 1st round picks and give us Jennings and Saunders for Bargs and Jose.

Trading Bargnani for money doesn't make sense.

I'm up for making him available, but I'd only trade him if we can get a scoring 5 back which is pretty doubtful- If those Euro-loving Kings(and Tyreke?) are fed up with Cousins, though, I'd cough up anything other than DD/Ed for him with Bargnani as the featured player, taking anything back.

u dont think scott skiles likes the idea of pairing bargs with Bogut? they compliment eachother well. It would cost skiles nothing... out to lunch dude.

[Yeezus_]

I would love to have Jennins and DeRozan on the same team.

[Schad]

I don't think Scott Skiles would see it that way.

Heh, I'm not sure that they'd take Skiles' opinion into great consideration at the moment...he might be an off-season casualty unless they rally in a big way.

It's a 2012 pick that he suggested, not 2011, and that's going to be a really deep draft. And yeah, I like the idea of trading Bargs and Jose for a pick and salary relief...depending on the structure of the new CBA, cap space in the first year of its implementation could be extremely valuable.

[KingstonRaptors]

It's official, Bargs/Jose for Jennings/Redd. Quick, someone with a blog should post this.

Bogut + Bargnani would be a deadly frontcourt. What a gift to Milwaukee!

Kings do have a lot of desirable bigs I highly doubt they'd be willing to give up cousins but if they're willing to give away Hassan Whiteside for Bargs sure in a heartbeat.

if we give milwaukee bargs for redd (doesnt even play) milwaukee competes for playoffs next year, and the pick they give us back is even worse than the 2011 would be. I know some of you guys think bargs is useless but he would look great next to a C like bogut.

salary cap space is overrated, has never done anything for us. THe only way we have a chance at an FA is by overpaying. The new CBA could improve the value, but it might not...

bad trade

What happened to bring this on? BC not getting extended?
