Thats horrible. Your pretty much pinning your hopes on a injured expiring contract. He has torn the same ACL TWICE in 3 years. If he comes back and is a shell of his former self, you just gave away Bledsoe and Chriss for **** Mirza and Henson (who they have spent years trying to trade)! Not to mention having to pay out the ass to Parker next year just to see if he can still play!
Seriously that is insane!
Henson for christs sake, they have been trying to trade him off since they gave him his new contract! That was instant regret!
Parker looked good after tearing his ACL for the first time, and it sounds like he is motivated and progressing extremely well after tearing it the 2nd time. We still have one of the best medical staffs in the NBA too. I think Parker is definitely worth the gamble of trading Chriss. Someone else mentioned it somewhere else but I don't want to deal with Chriss crying in the future. He constantly gives up on plays, he looks like lost sometimes, I catch him so often never being in a defensive stance or even just being focused. He throws his hands up in the air like a giant baby way too often and for him to be doing this at 19 doesn't bode well for his future. Whenever someone is in the post against Chriss I automatically think they are going to score or get fouled.
Trading Bledsoe is addition by subtraction since he wasn't making our players better anyway and he wants out. Mirza's contract isn't a big deal since he expires the same time as Chandler's contract anyway.
If the deal is that bad, then just substitute Monroe's contract for Mirza/Henson. I was basically trying to make a deal that Bdub would somewhat approve of, since he always leans heavily on the other teams perspective.
