Ok then.

The camp for Kings forward Jason Thompson would like to get him traded before Thursday's deadline, a source said.

Nobody is trading for Larry Sanders right now because his situation is too cloudy. Jared Dudley is a very nice piece for any team but he's not fetching a 1st. Brandon Knight could net a 1st but the owners aren't doing that based on their recent comments about him.

I agree with all this, I just find it funny that a 27 year old can be called over the hill. Usually a basketball player's prime is approximately 26-31.

His body is well beyond 27 years old.

Still not the most unbelievable DOB on the team though.

Even if Zaza really has just turned 31 he's still got a nearly done body.

And Kenyon has the body of King Tut.

I think it would be a shame to not at least see Inglis play. I don't mind D Mo and Kostas. Also the Greek connection with Giannis would be a positive. P Bev is the interesting one, I don't like him as a point guard but he wouldn't neccessarily need to be one with Giannis and Jabari needing there fair share of the ball. Bev would just be there to knock down the three Mario Chalmers style.
All in all,
Beverly
Middleton
Jabari
Giannis
D Mo is something I could probably get behind although it wouldn't be a trade id be desperate for.

That would an awesome team.

Yeah the more I look at it the more I like it. If Giannis and Jabari project as we hope I think that's a contending starting 5 in 3-4 years.

You could take out Inglis and the other Greek dude right? I love that team if D Mo's D is not some kind of crazy mirage.

Both rookies, not necessary and the only reason id be keen on papa is the Greek connection but I'm keen on seein what Inglis has got.
I think we chuck in clips 1st with Henson and knight. This is providing that Houston think knight is the best player in the deal. I actually think he works well in Houston. Less ball handling and a better scorer then Beverly. Although we know he's not as skilful after the weekend..

Papanikolaou will probably be a AFA this summer, if he remains in Houston. There is a team option for him.

With the Larry buyout possibly on the horizon, that extra roster spot sure comes in handy.

Could we still be looking at a deal like Ersan for Stauskas/Thompson?

yoshii8 · Post #4454 » by **yoshii8** » Mon Feb 16, 2015 2:33 pm

I'm guessing we'll just bring in Jorge for the rest of the season.

I think it's more likely that they get that buyout done by Friday and Gutierrez takes Larry's 15th spot for the rest of the season.

We'd likely have to send JOB out also in that deal to create a roster spot for the two incoming guys and to keep Jorge. I'm assuming we will need Jorge for the stretch and Stauska's wouldn't get much time. Frankly Jorge is a better player than Stauska's at the moment. Would love it if that trade rumor were true though.

I thought I heard they weren't going to bring back Jorge after his second 10 day contract. I guess that probably changes now that Larry might get bough out.

Ask the Germans.

I'd still do Ersan for Thompson/Stauskas if talks start up again. It's basically taking on Stauskas for $6.5M (actually less considering the difference in Ersan/JT's 2015-16 salary). That's a good use of future cap space, IMO.
