Fultz4thewin 2,464 Report post Posted December 22, 2016 Is it basically Dragic for Payton and Vooch? That's a decent deal, though I don't like Dragic's age and contract. yeah, I mean, I'm no Dragic fan but that trade is reasonable. and it works under the salary cap laws. and it fits under the CBA rules assuming Bosh doesn't currently count on their roster. ...this might be a real rumor.

Hate his age. He's on the downside in that department. 4 years ago...You bet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Soul Bro 1,422 Report post Posted December 22, 2016 but it's not duplicate talent in the prohibitive sense because both guys are elite catch and shoot players and do a really good job at getting eachother assists. McCollum shoots 50% on threes when they come from Lillard. McCollum probably helps Lillard rest a bit as he doesn't have to be the full time ball handler when he's in the game. Plus they have a rotation which allows one of those two to be in the game at all times. Portland has an elite offense but a horrible defense. so why would they break up the one thing they have over other teams to fix something that can be fixed through a minor trade? Especially when there's an obvious trade candidate out there in Noel which shouldn't cost them an arm and a leg to obtain. Because they would maybe believe they need a more balanced attack. Not saying we'd do this or if it would even work thru random means, but a package of Fournier and Gordon for McCollum might be attractive for both teams.

I think you'd have to throw in Vonleh for that trade to be even imo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jay Magic 1,251 Report post Posted December 22, 2016 Gallinari for Green has been discussed. I love this trade if DEN thinks Gallo needs a change of scenery before free agency. Gordon would come off bench at the 4 next to Bismack.Vuc would start again. Rudez at SF until Mario gets it together. Magic need to walk away if anyone asks for their 2017 draft pick, unless its a star. If DEN trade happened I see Elf/Evan/Dino/Ibaka/Vuc with DJ/Meeks/Mario (Rudez 4 now)/Gordon/Biz bench. Better balance there Still early in trade talks. Let's see what else bubbles up. via Twitter Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mauro Pedrosa 1,033 Report post Posted December 22, 2016 Not sure why Denver would do that But if it happened, I think the starting lineup would remain the same, but with Gallo in Gordon's place Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
