What could it look like today? Suppose we sign Terry, Allen, Pietrus and Green. We could offer:

Pierce, Bass, Bradley, Sullinger, Melo, #1 pick for Howard, Turkoglu

Now I'm not saying we SHOULD, but it seems to me that we might actually have better pieces than NJ...

Rondo / Allen / Terry / Moore
Green / Pietrus / Turkoglu
Garnett / Howard / JJJ / Steimsma

Doesn't matter if we have the best offer without including him. In the proposed NJ deal, Orlando would be spending the entire cap on a core of Brook Lopez, Glen Davis, Turkoglu, Humphries, Duhon and Richardson for 2 more years. That's just awful, not a single All-Star or promising rookie on the whole roster. The 1st rounders will be late 1st rounders, and over several years.

In our deal they can actually rebuild, unload their worst contract, and get 4 young pieces right away.
