    He wants out and we SHOULD want him! Reasonable contract. Upgrade of player.

    Henson makes $11.5M this year and less the following 2 seasons after.
    Give them Leonard and Aminu and a 2018 FRP.

    Good rim protector. Would be an ideal backup. I've been team Henson2pdx for awhile. Don't know what his value is or what Milwaukee would want, but I also don't know about giving up a first and Aminu. Don't think his value is that high.

    He'd be a good backup center. I think Portland would rather develop Collins/Swanigan though. They wouldn't want to take on 3 years and 30 mil unless they were dumping equal or more salary. Don't think the Bucks would want Leonard.

    Are you willing to include Harkless? They don't want our crap and no one wants Meyers.

    $12M a year for Henson is a bad contract to be honest. I would not want to give up good assets for him, Aminu and first round pick are good assets.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    IMO, Henson is a similar caliber player to Ed Davis prior to last year. If you think Davis won't rebound, then Henson would be a superior back up. If Davis does bounce back to where he was before last season, I wouldn't see it as an upgrade. I'd swap the two players but considering Davis is coming off an awful year and Henson isn't, Milwaukee wouldn't be too interested in that, I'd assume.

    Harkless is worth more than Henson. Aminu does fit the type of athlete Milwaukee likes but honestly, even Aminu is worth more than Henson.

    Maybe Davis and a pick

    Let's get back to trading Leonard for Henson....keep Aminu...Leonard and Connaughton.....Connaughton reminds me of Delledova ...they'd be good teammates

    Bucks trying to dump salary so trading for players that comes the same. If they do it they properly players with one year contract.

    No picks for Henson. Meyers and an ice cream should be enough.

    Why don't you go ask if just Meyers is enough in a Bucks forum.

    If Henson declared he wants traded, I think a Meyers swap would be fair. Might need to throw in a second rounder and or cash. Good trade for everyone involved, especially Meyers.

    Your algorithm is off. You asked a question and ended it with the wrong punctuation. Your post is invalid.

    Because the ESPN Trade Machine only goes up to 4 teams. That's plenty. That's 27,405 possible combinations of 4 teams out of 30 and if we assume each team has 15 players, that's 2.1E+184 possible trade combinations.

    Get busy boys! Your ridiculous trade proposals aren't going to post themselves!
