particular, the Suns are still holding out hope tha Philadelphia will come to the table and agree to a dea sending Andre Iguodala and Samuel Dalembert to Phoenix. The Suns have sweetened their offer to the 76ers by including Leandro Barbosa in a package with Stoudemire. Also possible is a three-way trade that would send Hickson and Barbosa (along with Ilgauskas) to Philly Stoudemire to Cleveland and Iguodala and Dalembert to Phoenix Expect the Suns to turn up the heat significantly on the
I think we could easily replace Cleveland in that 3 way by adding Perk. Peerk is a much better fit than Hickson because they already have a ton of mins and money tied up at the PF position with Brand and Young. Plus is still think Young has more upside than Hickson. Perk would give Philly their Center of the future and has the perfect personality for Philly.
I bet that Philly would even buy out Ray , it would be pointless to keep him!
Bos sends : Ray , Perk + 1st rd
Boston gets: Stoudamire + Ray comes back after being bought out
Suns send : Amare + Barbosa
Suns get. : Iggy + Dalembert
Philly send: Iggy + Dalembert
Philly gets. : Ray ( gets bought out )Perk. , Barbosa + 1st rd pick
Why For Boston
I do Perk+ Ray + 1st for Stoudamire + bought out Ray in a heartbeat Perk would be a loss, but we need to get a young PF in here. KG is going to be completely done soon. Plus we could likely get a guy like kurt thomas with our expirings ( scal, Ta) and a 2nd rd pick. I know Kurt Thomas and Wallace are very old , but the one thing they can still do is play very good post defense
makes us so much more athletic with Stoudamire we would be able to have a real fast break attach . Stoudamire would get so many easy alley oops from Rondo Then you could have PP _ Ray Sspotting up from 3 and KG from 18 feet on the fast break And a combo of Rondo + stoudamire is a much better fit than Rondo + Perk for the future.
Why for suns
They get the deal they want
Why for Philly
Perk is a much better fit than Stoudamire because Philly has so much money and playing time tied up between Brand and Thadeous Young. Perk would give Philly their Center of the futur to team up with their other young talent ( Young, William, Holiday). Perk's personality would be perfect for Philly a hard working + tough , would be a perfect fit in Philly
They also save 20 mil off the books for next year and about 70 mil over the next 4 years
They also get a first round pick which they could package to move up in the draft and they have their own pick , which should be pretty high.
They would have enough cap space to offer a max contract after next season (2012 FA)
I think it is a pretty fair trade for all involved what do you think?
