    Denver is already loaded at PF with Millsap, Faried, Arthur, Lyles, Lydon... Why would they take Vonleh? The already have too many young players to try to develop as is, so why would they want a late 1st round pick? They only have 2 SFs on the roster with Chandler and Barton, so why would they try to trade Will?

    Why bother?

    Whatever trade idea you might have, people here will find a way to shoot it down.

    No way....Vonleh is about to beast next to Nurk....no first rounder either....plus I think Denver is still sore from the last deal we did....I like Barton but not at the cost of a PF same age as Nurk and a first round pick next year....don't see it....Meyers Leonard and Pat Connaughton I'd swap though.

    There are some good free agents...Michael Beasley is available....Barbosa just got waived...if I brought in a vet I'd consider Gerald Henderson for the right price
    As to trades.....tough call...Chicago is rebuilding, Knicks are rebuilding, Mavs are in sort of retooling mode..

    He didn't compare him to Nurk?

    Trading for the best wing defender we can get would be a good move

    I don't even really like him but Hezonja would be an Olshey type move, plus we just lost 30 minutes we need to replace. Can't imagine his asking price being too prohibitive.

    Hell no. Not even if you switch direction on the pick.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    I'd trade Vonleh for Barton. I wouldn't throw in a first round pick, though. But then Denver wouldn't do it. Impasse.

    Nugget fans are fed up with the People's Champ.

    He's injury prone as hell too. Pass.

    Barton is one of the few players with a worse defensive rating than Dame and CJ last year. We could be the Nets East.

    To Portland:
    Garrett Temple

    To Sacramento:
    Ed Davis
    Pat Connaughton

    Why?
    Sacramento: Saves them money this year and next year if Temple picks up his 18'-19' player option.
    Portland: Balances the roster w/needed skillset, opens up development minutes for Collins and Swanigan.

    Portland dumps Nards.
    Kings get a Center to troll DMC with four times a year.

    This is the Kyrie trade I want to see happen. MILs 2019 and 2021 (Maybe 2023) 1sts to PHX.
    Screenshot_2017-07-28-20-44-02.png

    Cleveland gets 2 starters, a young player, and a backup C. Id argue they got better here. They'd have a great bench.

    Bledsoe / Rose
    Middleton / Shumpert
    Lebron / Parker / Jefferson
    Love / Parker
    Thompson / Henson

    Milwaukee gives up a lot, but gets their second star and still has solid depth. The big part of this is that they save around $15M next year, giving them enough cap space to go after Cousins or Jordan.

    Irving / Brogdon
    Brogdon / Vaughn
    Giannis / Snell
    Teletovic / Wilson / Frye
    Maker / Monroe

    Pheonix gets two or three future picks for their rebuild and clears a starting spot for Ulis.
