Absolutely not.

Love pissed at his teammates after Suns loss. He should be pissed at himself for shooting 4-20 :lol:

. And I don't think many understand the value of the Memphis pick. That pick could easily be a top 10 pick for us next season.

I thought it was top-ten protected.

It's top 5 protected and also protected 15-30 (which is in our favor), so we get it if it's between selection 6-14, which seems very likely given the state of the Grizzles. This protection holds true through the 2018 season, after that it becomes unprotected. We are basically guaranteed a lotto pick unless you think the Grizzles make the playoffs every year for the next 5 years.

Grizzles have to make the playoffs or completely bottom out next season for us not to get that pick, I don't see either of those things happening.

It is our most valuable pick at the moment, in my opinion.

Koufus is so overrated on RealGM.

Koufus is so overrated on RealGM.

His contract is only $3 million and he is great insurance in case AV goes down. Now that we are all in on this season, we need another big as insurance. I'd rather deal Jack & Clark and a pick for Asik, but I don't think that would get it done.

I agree we need a centre but not in this deal. Like fart said this could be our most valuable pick.

What would guys give for Asik. I think everyone is unanimous in that we would offer Jack & Clark. I imagine that Houston might look for an incentive beyond that.

jack and clark are crap so im sure houston would want more. Asik was pretty great as a starter last year. Not sure what i'd give up but we could do a lot worse than Asik.

Still waiting for another trade Mr. Grant.

Just looking at the standings today. Not sure why we are even talking trades until we get above the 6st spot. We are still a ton away from worth discussing. The next week will tell us a lot.

Just in case, anyone know if Deng can be traded again at the deadline?

I heard someone say he can be traded individually, but cannot be a part of a multiple player package. And I think we still need another trade for a scoring big to be legit.

I think a Gasol trade may be revisited closer to the deadline. The Cavs are looking strong. Add in Gasol into that mix and you've got a tough team.

Niko23 · Post #1017 » by **Niko23** » Sun Jan 12, 2014 9:14 pm

I am not sure how the salaries would work in a Gasol trade though......I do not think we include AV in a Gasol deal.

Jajwanda · Post #1018 » by **Jajwanda** » Sun Jan 12, 2014 9:46 pm

Not sure why you wouldn't. It would bring a different dimension to the team. You can make it a three-way deal and get value for Varejao from a third team. The other possibility is Jordan Hill who would add quite a bit to the bench at C.

fart · Post #1019 » by **fart** » Sun Jan 12, 2014 9:56 pm

I still maintain the thought that Varejao is a top 5 starting center in this league. He is far from a throw in.

Dupp · Post #1020 » by **Dupp** » Sun Jan 12, 2014 11:13 pm

Yeah I'm not including Varejao in a deal for gasol. Varejao is playing great post Bynum and I'm not that into gasol anyway.
