3 Way HAWKS,SUNS, BUCKS Not Imminent 

Post#1 » by Superiorblogman » Thu Jun 23, 2011 2:56 pm

Hawks get Bogut and $4.3 million trade exception from Phoenix

Suns get Josh Smith and Zaza

Bucks get Gortat and Pietrus

Why Atlanta does this, because we get a legit Center

Why Suns do this, because Josh Smith is better at the box office than Gortat and is better on the floor than any SF/PF they have, plus they get Zaza who is a Center.

Why Bucks do this, because they may have legit health concerns about Bogut and they would save money, plus Gortat is a pretty good legit Center himself and they get another guy that can play 2 and 3 with an expiring contract which is always helpfull

This is a great trade proposal but I dont see the Bucks doing this unless somone takes on a one of their bad contracts, sry I should have said that when u posted this on the last thread I just forgot. My apologies.

Suns would have to take back salary from Milwaukee... Josh don't think Gortat has value like that..

In the middle of next year, when the honeymoon's over between Gortat and PHO, this will be a good trade idea.
But not now.
Now, PHO wouldn't take anything near Gortat's real value.

In the middle of next year Gortat's trade value will be higher than is now.

The Bucks have a deal in place to dump 2 of their bad contracts to Charlotte (Maggette) and Sacramento (Salmons) respectively. Not sure how this info plays into this rumor, but I just thought I'd share that.

This Hawks-Bucks-Suns is an actual rumor?

I actually really like this trade. I have been wanting to target Bogut, and Phx is a good fit for Smoove, and Gortat is someone Phx can part ways with (bc they have 2 centers), and Gortat helps fill the void bogut woudl leave in Mil. I would just say that Mil was one of the worst teams offensively last year, and instead of Pietrius, they could use a legitmate scorer. Maybe you could bring in a 4th team to exhcange Peitrius for a secondary scorer.

And someone might have to sweeten the deal by tossing MIl a 1st round pick.
