I'm an X and O guy; don't much want to track the league cap and trade rules.
So I have a question for the capologists: Given the roster turnover, what are the credible trades - no trades involving Pierce, Garnett or Rondo - that we can offer Phoenix for Gortat right now?
Players are obvious - Bradley, etc. Can we trade Melo? What's the cash value of a draft pick matching salaries?
It is becoming increasingly apparent, I think, that we cannot wait until Jan. 15 to address historic rebounding ineptitude.
Perhaps we patch it with a K-Mart signing; I tend to think Martin's cooked.
