your trade deadline realistic trades?

[Jailan34]

Avery Bradley for Dion Waiters.

[Rondohara]

Rondo for Jennings and Drummond

Unrealistic.
They might sell us Smith or Monroe for a non-ripoff price.

Humphries, Olynyk and a first rounder for Larry Sanders

Don't think it's very realistic, but I don't want to give up on Klynyk not receiving "just" Larry Sanders. Let's wait for Klynyk breakout, then see what we'll do.


To me some possible trades involve the ones shipping out Crawford and maybe some other with Humphries. But I'm sure Danny has his claws out there to jump on any good deal that appear. I also see some chance of a trade with the Knicks happening, but it's a long shot.

Humphries Crawford Olynyk and 2 picks for Sanders?
Sanders would be the best thing possible for this team, an athletic rim protector with quick footwork who enjoys defense (and presumably catching alley-oops from Rondo). He could be our Hibbert. The Bucks have another younger, cheaper player with similar talents to Sanders (Henson) and Olynyk would offer them a player that would compliment Henson nicely. The Bucks suck no matter what this year so a large expiring contract in Humphries and some draft picks only helps their situation without being too detrimental to our own. (They already have 12 million coming off the books in expirings this year so they could sign a max free agent if they really wanted, but they're bad enough to get a top 3 pick) Olynyk fully reaching his potential is a big who can stretch the floor, play down low, and pass well. Since Sullinger already can do those things, I've never really understood the Olynyk hysteria. The biggest concern I have with this is the Bucks being way too good in a couple years after drafting Wiggins/Parker/Randle/Embiid/Smart and then signing Kyrie when he leaves that steaming pile of garbage excuse for a basketball team in Cleveland.

To win in the East, you need to beat the Heat. Sanders actually played pretty good defense on Lebron in the playoffs last year. That's why I doubt Danny will trade Green or Bass because of their defense on Lebron, and I would bet a hefty sum that we match any offer for Bradley this off-season. Crawford could be a great sixth man moving forward. A starting lineup of Rondo Bradley Green Sully Sanders would give the Heat nightmares, not to mention our second 5 of Crawford Lee Wallace Bass Vitor would be literally better than the Phoenix Suns. That team would be built to guard Lebron.

If you wait until a guy is a certified bust, you don't get anything for him. What we would do in that case is watch him sit on the bench and then not pick up the additional years on his rookie deal.

If you believe in him, there is nothing wrong with keeping him. But there are some who only want to trade guys when they have proven that they are not good. Other GMs also watch a lot of tape. They are only going to trade their garbage for our garbage.

[Vermont Green]

Rondo for Jennings and Drummond

Crawford for Cole, Oden, Min 2nd

Bass, Lee, Wallace for Stoudemire, Hardaway Jr.

I wouldn't do the first.

I don't know about the second, not a bad trade but helping the cHeat... maybe.

I like the third one.

Really?  You wouldn't do Jennings and Drummond for Rondo?  I thought this was the best trade for the Celtics and Detroit would probably never do it, even if we added picks.

Helping the Heat?  Crawford may be a kind of Trojan Horse so giving them Crawford is "help" I am willing to give.

The third is probably the easiest to get done.
