Edit: Maybe Thad, Martin and GR3 for Lance, Henderson, 1 of Vonleh or Zeller. We're giving them the two best players in the deal right now in Thad and Martin and taking 2 bad contracts off their hands to get a young big. GR3 is a consolation because we need to match roster spots and he'd be a piece they could take or leave based on his contract.
Interesting trade. Not sure I would give up Martin in that trade.
Could Lance play backup PG? I think it would all come down to locker room fit for Lance. I would love to take a flyer on Vonlesh at the right price. True PF size, but needs to get stronger or he will be pushed around worse then Dieng.

If we could get zeller for thad young then we should do it. Zeller is going to be very good 2 years from now. Flip was very high on him last year and I can see that he is flip's kind of guy. He can shoot, run the floor and finish above the rim. If he adds strength along with more experience, he is going to be a starting caliber 4 in the league in two years. WOuld be a good fit to rubio and wiggins game and next to pek/dieng.

Khans, I like your 2nd trade. I think its realistic as martin would be a good fit to the hornets with al, kemba and mkg. I would love to get zeller on the team as I think he is a very good fit here. Im on the fence with him on whether he can be a good fit here next to rubio since he needs the ball to be at his best. Paul george did blossom with lance as his wing partner and lance gives us much needed rebounding help. Still not sure about him but if we can move him to another team then I would be for it.
Cam, your disdain towards any PF not named Thaddeus Young or Karl Towns is getting a bit old lol.
;)
I would jump at the chance to get either Vonleh or Zeller. Both are a good fit with the direction of this team and both have nice upside. Lance Stephenson I'm not sold on, but if the package was right I'd be ok with it.
