Huerter would be a really good fit there; he reminds me of Klay. Wonder if they try to work out some deal with ATL? Wonder if we could get involved?

Seems like a lot of pressure on GSW management to do something significant.  If Wiseman was Danny's target (not sure I buy that, but whatever), do a sign and trade of Hayward and Nesmith for Wiseman and Wiggins? 

I bet GSW would do that.

Should we?

Hayward and Filler for Wiggins, Wiseman and a boatload of future picks.

The suggested trade of Hayward and Nesmith gives up too much.  Hayward would clearly be the best player in the proposed trade AND we would be helping GSW by allowing them to get out of Wiggins' crazy contract.

With the injury to Klay, Golden State may insist on Nesmith to help that 3 point shooting void, which would also help provide spacing for Curry.

Yeah, that's why I included him in the trade proposal.

Vucevic is basically a 20/11/4 big man over the last 2 years with 3 point range.  He is healthier than Hayward as well.  He is more valuable, if not outright better.  Gordon and Wiggins are fairly close overall, though I think more teams would prefer Gordon as he is the more well rounded player.  That doesn't even account for Fournier who is a stud as well. 

That is a terrible trade for Orlando.  I don't even know if they do it if they get Wiseman in the trade.  That is how bad I think it is for them.
