Trade Idea
Posted: Sun Feb 02, 2014 2:16 pm
I will probably get killed on this trade idea but it is just a hypothetical.
Min gets: the Morris twins, Len, Okafor (expiring 14M), Our first back, there first lottery protected and there 2016 first unprotected
Phx gets: Love, Hummel, Shved, LRMAM, Turiaf
My thoughts behind the trade, the Morris twins have played amazing this year, both could be quality starters and they are both just 24, Len is another project but I love his offensive potential, Okafor expiring is nice so we would have cap to work with in the offseason. We get our pick back, which means, we can actually trade a draft pick now, or we can just draft a player, another pick in the mid to late first round because PHX would make the playoffs and an 2016 unprotected, if Love stays PHX, what he might because they would be a good team we would get a mid to late first rounder, or he would leave and we would get an early first round pick. We also get rid of LRMAM bad contract, and have a chance to develop young talent what the wolves don't like to do
Our lineup for the rest of the year
PG; Rubio/Barea/Price
SG: Martin/Shabazz/Bud
SF: Morris/Brewer/Bud
PF:Morris/Cunningham/Morris
C: Pek/Len/Dieng/Okafor
The Suns do it because it makes them a threat in the west, have three players all star caliber all 27 or under, they would be a top 4 team in the west IMO, and could give teams hell running Bledsoe and Love PnR or Goran and Love PnR
