Trade idea: Lee for Joel Anthony and Norris Cole

[Smitty77]

Miami is wanted to get guard help (hmmmm, I guess that Ray Allen thing is NOT working out:-))))))))))))))) via a trade.

Let's help them out.

They mention trading the rarely used Joel Anthony, who I like.

This works on realgm.com trade checker and it saves us .22 million this year and more next year.

Cole is intriguing.  I really like Joel Anthony who plays bigger than his height!!

Thoughts?

I don't see them moving Cole for Lee.

Swap Cole with Lewis


Include money to buy out Lewis and some future pick.  (maybe the Philly 1st that Miami will never get unless Philly makes the playoff the next two years.  Then it becomes two 2nd rounders)

Ray Allen thing not working out? Hmm his shot in the finals was the biggest difference in losing in 6 to the spurs or winning a title. He could've retired before the season and it worked out great.

I feel like Chalmers is much more likely to be moved than Cole given that his contract expires this summer and he's likely going to look for a pay raise.
