Possible Toronto trade 

Post#1 » by Twolfboy21 » Wed Jun 27, 2012 7:11 pm

Thoughts on this trade?

TO MN:
Calderon
Ed Davis
DeRozen

TO Toronto
Webster
Miller
D WIll

MN gets their starting SG, backup C/PF and Calderon to use to mentor Rubio.

Toronto gets an upgrade at PF with DWill, gets rid of Calderon salary, drafts a SG in 1st round.

Don't like it. Derozan is better suited to play SF, Davis suited to play PF, and we take on another PG without getting rid of either Barea or Luke.

Unless the #8 in included in that scenario it's an easy pass for Minnesota. We'd have 4 point guards: Rubio, Ridnour, Calderon, Barea. That makes no sense. DeRozan isn't a good fit either. The wings in our system need to be able to shoot, not one of DeRozan's strong points. And Ed Davis... is okay but no reason to cap-space or Derrick Williams for this package. Its a Raptors dream trade, they clear salary, get a young, talented big and can draft a young guard.

Let me revise this...

TO MN:
Bad contract (Calderon)
Junk (Davis)
Ok wing with a broken jumper (DeRozen)

TO Toronto:
Nice partially garaunteed contract (Webster)
Nice partially garaunteed/retiring contract (Miller)
Young SF/PF, former #2 with loads of potential (Williams)

Minnesota fills some holes with average players and depletes their cap space.

Toronto... you got this part of it right.


In summary... you've got to be kidding me. Include the #8 and maybe we're onto something.

I think we had talked Davis and DeRozen for Williams and Ellington. I would consider that a little more even, but think we'd need a sweetner. I like Derozen at SG more than most though.

What's the probability on this "possible" trade?

Toronto is getting robbed here, they will say no.

1. DeRozan & Ed Davis alone is probly worth as much as Derrick Williams.

2. Miller is retired, and Webster is a free agent.

however i would do a trade with Toronto, but more along the lines of Derrick Williams, JJ Barea & Malcom Lee for Demar DeRozan, Jose Calderon & the 37th pick

I'm not sure if you're serious or not...

anyways: Miller is not retired, he's going to retire and Webster is under contract but has a cheap buy out. By trading for these two players any team is esentially getting free cap space.

Why do we want a SG that can't shoot, and isn't a ball handler? That's a very daft trade.
