OK, lets go 1 by 1.
1) Pierce and Sasha to CHI, Bynum and Deng to BOS, & Hinrich and Perk to LAL.
This one isn't bad, but I have a hard time seeing the Lakers and C's doing such a major trade, and I also do not think the Lakers would give up Bynum (despite his injuries) without getting more value back. I know he is fun to make fun of, but he has a TON of potential, and is already very productive, when he can stay on the floor.
2) Pierce to Miami for #17 and Beasley (Miami is far enough under the cap right?).
The problem with this is that Miami would never give up their cap space before the draft. Now, if they are only able to bring in one big name (either Wade, or someone in place of him), I could see this deal going down later in the summer, but it would be for whoever they picked in the draft, not the actual pick.
3) Ray (S&T) and Perk to Toronto for Calderon, DeRozan, and #12 pick.
Interesting. I think the C's would be very hessitant to take on Calderon's contract, since they already have Rondo locked up, but value-wise its not bad for the C's. I don't see why the Raptors would do it though. I think Derozan would be hard for them to give up.
4) Pierce to LAC for #8 and Jordan.
This one makes the most sense to me. Again, I don't think it would happen until later in the summer, once they realized they can't get one of the top FA's. But I really think if the C's ever considered trading Pierce, the Clips would be the ideal trading partner, because of their cap space, and a few decent assets. Plus, Pierce may even get on board, since he is buddies with Davis, and on paper, a starting 5 of Davis, Gordon, Pierce, Griffin, and Kaman is pretty interesting. If they could convince Camby to come back (that was rumored, and bring in a couple other veterans off the bench, they would have a chance to make some noise, if they can stay healthy.
