    So like this? http://www.espn.com/nba/tradeMachine?tradeId=hurlttu

    Not the craziest trade you have proposed at least :) Puts us in huge luxury tax area though.

    The second for reason that Gundy said he wasn't looking to trade him.

    I'm listening from the start as I missed most of it, and this is all really good stuff.

    Interesting discussion at ~23 about the difficulty of making the decision to blow it up when you know you are not good enough to beat one team. Specifically talking about the Hawks and how they are not built to beat the Cavs, do they make the decision to blow it up and trade Millsap, and what does that show the fans.

    Sometimes blowing it up is the obvious move, but sometimes that is the right move, and it's not so obvious. The Hawks do seem like one of those teams that this might pertain to. I'd say the same about the Clippers but they've basically moved from not so obvious to right in your face for a while.

    I did a google search and it came up with "Greg Monroe and Andre Drummond".

    Breaking news: Blazers acquire Greg Monroe and Andre Drummond in 3 team trade.

    I 100% agree with Woj Olshey likely being patient and waiting to see if he can be part of a bigger deal during the draft.

    Woj says that with all the options we have there is no reason not to be patient.

    Magic strikes me as kind of like divac but on the opposite end, where he will overvalue all his players and be a bitch to deal with.

    Getting rid of Lou Williams doesn't count, lakers literally need to tank this season.

    Yeah that to me means that Randle is off the table. Bummer, but a smart move for the Lakers...

    Any interest in Gallinari? Portland doesn't really have ending contracts outside of Ezeli. It would have to be something like Ezeli and Aminu or Harkless.

    He an opt-out that he is taking I believe. So depends on if you feel you can resign him.
