the clippers are looking for assets to include in a trade for carmelo anthony......

what could they trade crawford and rivers for that would help improve their offer to NY?

teams that could be interested in one or both:


both to sacramento for afflalo and gay?

orlando?

brooklyn?

others?

I do not feel that these players are going to bring back an asset. I can see the scenario where the clippers need to dump\move a fair amount of players and one of their core 4 to have the space to eat Noah's contract if they want to get Melo (i'm sure that will not go over well).

Here is an example--(i do not really like it for the Magic either and would not do it, but this is just to provide an example of the work required if the Clippers want Melo.)

The clippers would also need to add a few firsts to NY.

If the Knicks are serious about getting Rivers taking Jamal is part of it . Shockingly bad in prospective but I don't see any other choice. Clippers adding a pick gets it done . If they rather just try Melo tank commander.. good luck.

Clippers won't be dealing Rivers.

Its going to take a Brice Johnson and a couple of second for a team to take on Crawford. Orlando might be best bet with the Green contract
