    This is a good find. I did not know about Vaughn. Pretty certain Moe hates him

    I suspect he has an offer on the table from the Blazers who said "Here's our offer to you feel free to shop around" im guessing starting around $9mil.

    Yeah I assume Harkless and his agent are stalling in the hope someone with some money gets around to offering him a nice contract.
    I would not be in any hurry either.

    The think is after Brooklyn and Philly nobody has more than about 13 to offer to start.

    Here's who has what

    BKN $31.5
    PHI $21.2
    DEN $21.2
    PHÒ $14.6
    MIL $13.4
    MIN $13
    UTA $8.9
    iND $3.9
    CHI $0.845

    Most those teams are set at SF, at least in terms of having a player as good as Mo or better.

    I'm being lazy.... I suspect the whole Harkless-Vaughn thing.... Vaughn was in Orlando while Harkless was there and didn't get any opportunity?

    BKN - Maybe. If Harkless hates Vaughn then no.
    PHI Probably not. They need shooters and have Simmons at SF.
    DEN Probably not. They need shooters and have Gallo, Chandler, and Barton at SF.
    PHÒ Maybe. They have Warren, Dudley, Chriss, and Bender as forwards. Booker could start at the 3.
    MIL Nope. They desperately need shooting and Harkless would be too redundant.
    MIN Nope. Name 1 good shooter on their team. You can't.
    UTA Nope. They have Burks, Johnson, and Diaw off the bench at the 2, 3, and 4.
    IND Not enough cash.
    CHI Not enough cash.

    Brooklyn already has 2 SF and bigger issues at other positions. As much as I like Hark he really didn't earn much more than a $10mil contract this year though he shows a ton of promise.

    Cool. That's why I always appreciate your reach-arounds.

    He might still wait another year to see whether someone gets him a better deal or not. Thing is he might not get that much playing time if we know for sure that he's departing next year (which will be certain if he takes QO).

    That's not who I think will be traded.

    I think aminu+voleh or Davis could be on the way out for a power forward. We have a logjam of big guys right now but not really a clear cut rotation. I think Neil is probably looking to consolidate a little bit.

    You sold me on all of this....... but Denver.

    Gallinari is never healthy, I would think about trading him since they seem to be going younger. Plus he could play the PF spot at 6'10.Chandler also seems older than the rest of the team and they have often looked at trading him. I think Barton plays mostly SG for them.

    Bottom line is I would not rule them out.

    They have Gary Harris and Jamal Murray at SG.

    They got Faried and Arthur at PF.

    Then you have to fit in Gallo, Chandler, and Barton. I don't think you can do that as well as fit Harkless.

    If I am Denver, I have Murray as my back up PG and Barton as my SG with Harris.
    Gallo is traded or moved to PF. (Arthur would sit)
    Then I have Chandler and Harkless at SF.
