    It maybe not even a free agent. It could be lopsided trades.

    Or you could keep Hickson and deal Aldridge for a few vets and a decent center.

    Was thinking about this thread a little bit more. Hickson, on a 1 year deal, would need to approve any trade he was involved in. Stands to reason he's likely to veto a deal unless it sent him 1) somewhere where he can win, 2) somewhere he can start, and then, 3) somewhere with cap space next year to re-sign him for more than MLE.
    Not sure if that's the right order. Maybe he first prefers somewhere he could potentially start over winning this season, to showcase himself for his first big contract. However, trying to think of where he might fit, again, IF we decided to move him.....
