StaySharp 5 Report post Posted June 18, 2011 Y would the sixers do that? Hedo fills the SF gap from Andre. Lou, Jodie, and Evan are capable of starting SG. Hawes is a FA next season and I don't think Speights should be starting at this point in his career. Emeka would solidify the C/PF position for them nicely. Elton Brand is getting old and despite his "comeback" season last year, he will need to be replaced in the future. Bass is a player with potential, and playing behind Brand would be a perfect fit until he shows he's capable of filling in the starting role. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chutiwannee 116 Report post Posted June 18, 2011 here are some trade scenarios that are Realistic and not full of HOMERS: Trade 1. Magic-GSW Magic trade Duhon, Qrich, JJ Redick GSW trades Ellis Why this works: Marc Jackson who is the new head coach for GSW said they want to be a defensive minded team. We all know monte ellis plays no defense.. Trading a defensive minded backup PG in Duhon along with a proven defender in Qrich...with a Scoring better defender JJ redick might make the team bite on this trade.. Monte ellis would provide the magic with scoring and someone who can create their shot. This is the rumored to be trade that we offered GSW... we shall see Trade 2. Magic-Philly Magic trade Turkoglu, Bass, 2 first round draft picks Philly trades Iggy Why this works: Philly is going to start rebuilding.. They obviously arent going to get past the 1st round with the same group every year.. With Evan Turner it makes Iggy more expendable. Turkoglu saves the team 22 million dollars longer term..Bass gives them an inside presence that can be a roleplayer behind Elton Brand Trade 3. Magic-Portland Magic trade Nelson Portland trades Andre Miller, Batum Why this works: Portland wants a younger PG and it saves them money in the long run as well. Miller has an expiring contract which helps the magic.. Batum can start at the SF position Trade 4. Magic-Bulls Magic trade Anderson and S&T JRICH Bulls trade Boozer Why this works: Boozer underperformed this whole year and his stock is at an all time low. Trading boozer would mean they need a PF who can shoot as well. Thats what Anderson is for. Also they dont have a proven SG that can score in spurts. Jrich can do that for them. Boozer is best friends with Dwight and he can shoot and play the post. Free Agency Some potential signing: Prince, Tmac, JR Smith CBA: Cut via amnesty Gilbert Arenas Resign Earl Clark Bring Vasquez over from Europe Magic roster: Ellis/Miller Iggy/JR smith Batum/Prince Boozer/Fran/Clark Dwight/Orton 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Soul Bro 1,419 Report post Posted June 18, 2011 Another idea. IF those things were to happen, how about bringing Monta off the bench to be undoubtedly the best 6th man in the league and to provide instant offense? (much like a Jason Terry type role) Hedo + J.J. Redick for Monta + filler to equal out salaries. Picks and cash would be included I'm sure. Jameer Nelson + Ryan Anderson for Andre Miller + Nicholas Batum Our TPE and Bass for Mayo. (obviously two deals would have to be done since you can't combine the TPE with a player) We all hope and pray Fran brings his punk *** over here. AC Gilbert Arenas Sign Chuck Hayes + Earl Clark. AND... Miller/Duhon/Ellis Mayo/Ellis Batum/Q/Clark Vazquez/Clark/Filler Howard/Hayes/Orton OR we don't trade for Miller/Batum, but sign AK47 or Tayshaun Prince instead. Nelson/Duhon/Ellis Mayo/Ellis Kirilenko or Prince/Clark/Q Anderson/Vazquez?/Clark Howard/Hayes/Orton Not very likely, but not completely out of the realm of possibility either...according to these latest trade rumors anyways. Good ideas. Gives us nice pieces and a chance to compete. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FlawlessVictory 26 Report post Posted June 18, 2011 Good ideas. Gives us nice pieces and a chance to compete. Thank you sir! I think so too. With a guy like Monta Ellis coming off the bench, I feel like he's set up for the best possible outcome for himself and the team. All he has to provide is what he does best...score. :happypuppy: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Magician09 5 Report post Posted June 18, 2011 Apparently when Otis called about Monta Ellis, the Warriors asked for Dwight Howard... DraftExpress Jonathan Givony The Dwight Howard sweepstakes have begun. Golden State offered Monta Ellis, Andris Biedrins and Ekpe Udoh. Unlikely that'll get it done. 15 minutes ago Favorite Undo Retweet Reply Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
