Discussing Other Teams' Moves Part 4

If they do and he get's flat out cut or bought out and hits the open market. I hope the Wiz take a look at him at a cheap price. Sanders on a 1 or 2 mill deal for the rest of the season would be an amazing upgrade over kevin. Plus we have decent leadership here, could be a decent place for him. But I would never take him in a trade, not with that contract.

Meh, contract or no contract - I'm not particularly interested in a guy who may not even want to play anymore. Let him be somebody else's headache.

we have enough leadership here, I'll take Sanders at a couple mill over Kevin all day every day. I think he might be ok here and if he's not we just cut him, it's not like we are heavily invested in him.

Congratulations to Michael Jordan on winning the Charlotte Business Person of the Year award.

The Hornets have appreciated in value. The name change helped. On the court the team has recently hit a hot streak.

Wow, Kobe embodying the "shoot until your arm falls off" cliche. Fans, of course, still vote him as an All-Star starter.

NOP signs Wolter's to another 10-day contract, insurance for Jrue being out.

If Sanders gets bought out, I'd definitely put in a lowball bid for him, hopefully something under $3M a year with a team option for 2016/17. Basically, a contract like Blair's. If Sanders gets it together, we have either a center for the future or a great bargaining chip. If Sanders continues his problems, we cut him in 2016 and no harm done.

The only problem is that we have no way to sign him for anything more than the vet minimum.

Sanders is going to come out of this on-top, the Bucks will ride this out.

Yeah IMO, that is why we cut rice to take advantage of situations like this. We might be the best team that would be willing to give him a chance placing him behind Gortat would be really nice. He's not the only or best option, but he's a nice option.

Hassan Whiteside with the triple double, points, rebounds and blocks.

So, looks like Detroit doesn't make it and Miami does...

They Have spencer dinwiddie, and Augustin. They might be Ok, they could bring up Tim Frazier or Seth Curry, Bryce Cotton or David Stockton. A lot of nice guards in the D league right now.

Jared Zwerling: Person familiar w/ OKC's coaching situation says front office/players behind Scott Brooks. Focus on potential trades, maybe Reggie Jackson. Twitter @JaredZwerling

Apparently they almost dealt Jackson to Denver, but no info on what they would have gotten in return. He's due to be a RFA in a year where there aren't many marquee names available, so his value could be artificially inflated and that would mean whoever acquires him would have to pony up to keep him. It'll be interesting to see what OKC ends up getting for him.

So is their front office Owner/GM considered idiots for adding old broken down players ?

http://hoopshype.com/salaries/dallas.htm

Wonder who they would move.

They are 5th in the West and arguably one of the better teams in the league with the 7th best record.

Man...

That would be a great move for them.

So there are rumored to be 7 teams in the running, not just LA, NY and Miami.

I tell you what, a scary thought would be Dragic finding his way to Indiana, just as they get Paul George back. Indy is only 2.5 games out of 8th place. Add Dragic and Paul George, and that's not a team I want to play in the playoffs. Dragic is really, really good.

Apparently PHX wants a big. I doubt they'd want a plodder like Hibbert, but maybe David West. But he's really be the heart/soul of that Pacer team IMO. Does subtracting him then diminish the impact of the Dragic pickup?

[nate33]

Indy wouldn't have to give up a big to get Dragic. Dragic has announced he is leaving and nobody is going to give much for a soon-to-be UFA. Phoenix will take anything they can get. A 1st round pick and filler will be enough.

Do you think that Orlando or Philly could give up the most and still stay whole? I would think that Philly could give up a low first and a big and still be fine. Orlando has young big assets as well.

I think the key will be finding a team that Dragic would sign with long-term, right?
