    I don't think so, but maybe have a little side trade where we give them the pick for some guy they don't want. Although I am not sure if Crabbe might be enough; those guys are not really regarded that highly.

    For sure? So we could add players to Crabbe in a sign and trade for Milsap from Atlanta?

    And by the way, Doesn't Crabbe have to agree to a deal with the new club first; he'd be a lot more likely to want Atlanta than Philadelphia.

    It could be done, yes, as long as we're not using a cap exception to sign him. If it's all inside cap space, players can be added, and there's no BYC restriction on his outgoing salary.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    Yeah, and Cleveland's offense has often looked weakened with him in, IMO. They have LeBron James, one of the several greatest NBA forces of nature, to make it work. Dame is awesome and all, but he's more Irving than he is James.

    Since it was going to Colangelo I hope it was Heisenberg's special stevia blend.

    Absolutely. We don't need Cleveland to also agree, do we?

    That's actually not a horrendous idea. Doubt that the Cavs would make the trade, but it might tempt them.

    Easy yes. I'd be interested in Okafor too. Either provide what we lack -- Rim protection (Noel) and low-post scoring (Okafor). Too bad Colangelo is their GM, it'll take a lot more than just Crabbe.

    Keeping Harkless would be extremely important.

    Without Crabbe this team lacks depth at SG/SF.
