Buy low on Bamba makes sense too.
While clicking around Orl I also realized Brook+DJs works for Vucevic. Would solve that problem long term. Incentive for Orl would be money savings, breaking the Vuc contract into two smaller pieces, and whatever picks we'd throw in. Still, I assume they're gonna keep on playoff chasing there so won't do it.
For Ball. Just ask yourself if his name was Frank Anderson, 2nd overall pick who can't shoot and has flopped for 4 years, would you want him then.
The problem with that is Vucevic is on a friendly deal, that reduces by $2mil each year for the next 2 years. If ORL is trying to tank, they might make that deal, but value will need to be included for Vucevic. Someone else would have a way better offer. I would do it in a heartbeat though.
Would prefer to get Ross from them, but I don't think we could do that without including DDV. DJW/DJA/2nd for Ross maybe. But they have no incentive to do that. We could throw in Nwora but personally I'd prefer to keep him.
