    Derrick Favors is someone I wouldn't mind. I don't think he will get a great deal in the Summer and if we could somehow make it work to get him this year, he would improve us instantly.

    Joe Ingles is another interesting player that is available although he is in decline. I would probably prefer Demarre Carroll.
    Or make it work somehow for Evans.

    Lillard-McCollum-Evans-Favors-Nurkic is a good lineup.

    Neil is doing nothing... we are gonna hear the same line again “not gonna make a trade just to make a trade”. That’s fine... except he has been saying it for 6 years now. At some point you have to shake things up and take a gamble

    that wouldn't be a bad move at all. Chief just isn't a PF, period. Favors has the size.

    Every time I hear an Olshey spiel, I imagine how much the other GMs must hate him.

    Why would they hate him, he helps facilitate deals all the time and has said numerous times he doesnt go into negotiations trying to “win” trades.

    I mean the odds of all of that shit lining up is about as likely as Oden making a comeback.

    He made a great trade just last year. Landed us Nurk and Collins.

    That would def make the Wizards better. And we'd have another reliable scorer.

    There will be at least three trades that are going to make us wonder ''why the hell did we not make a move here".

    My guess is Wilson Chandler if we make a trade.

    There is literally nobody left on the team from the 2011-2012 roster. How is that not shaken up?
