    Going off this list I'd like to see Portland use the TPE on Olynyk or Rivers.
    I think either of those players would tremendously improve Portland's roster.
    As they bring something to the table Portland relied on a limited big and a rookie for last year.

    Just noticed that the abbreviation for Charlotte is the same as the whole name of the GM that signed all these players.
    Also that I wouldn't mind Cody Zeller.

    Wonder if instead of Faried/14 Denver would give us chandler/14 for the TPE. Chandler may actually help us.

    He's got player option so he can't be traded until he officially picks it up but above that you can't be greedy when getting the 14th pick.

    Holy crap! I had no idea MIN was still paying Pekovic. He hasn't played a game for them in almost two and a half years and they still owe him another $11.6 million for next season. The last 12 games he played for them in 2015-16 cost them over $35 million.

    You're reading that wrong. The $11.6 was this last season. Besides that he was medically retired so they didn't have to pay him.

    Eric Gordan works. If Houston is serious about LeBron, cap space is needed. Paul is up for new contract, and I believe Capella is due soon as well. They have to clear space.

    I may be wrong (not unusual with respect to CBA matters), but I think it could be done under this year's salary, which would require the trade to happen before the end of June.

    Eric Gordon is the perfect player to acquire with the TPE... allows Blazers to trade CJ without skipping a beat at SG and upgrade at SF or PF

    I'm worried about you, Gronk. I'm afraid you're going to stroke out when CJ's still on the Blazers' roster opening night.

    Nobody's taking Anderson. They can't land LeBron.

    If we could get 14 and Faried for just our
    TPE, wet have to do it. Then fine a way to move up to 10ish.

    I think NYK would take Faried over Lee. They have nothing at PF with Porzingas hurt. Plus, the get out of Lee's contract a year earlier. Maybe throw in a 2nd, and keep 24.

    #14 and #24. Trade Aminu to a 3rd team, take back Bayless and #10 from Philadelphia while trading #14 back. Maybe get #26 as well.

    #10, #24, #26.
