Which player out of the names given above, would you want to trade for the most. Also what do you think we'll have to give up for each player?

I'll go with Barnes because he's number one on my wishlist, but I really don't think we could get him. My second choice would probably be DeRozen for a package along the lines of AB, KO, and a pick or two.

I chose Gallo simply because he is probably the only one really available on that list that I would want. I certainly would take Harkless for Young if that's all it would take though.

Barnes is who I want the most but I think it's the least likely.
DKC:  Rockets
CB Draft: Memphis Grizz
Players: Klay Thompson, Jabari Parker, Aaron Gordon
Next 3 picks: 4.14, 4.15, 4.19

Ya I'm not a big Gallo fan, but he would be probably the cheapest one to get. But I'm no sure I want to give up on Young yet

Why in the world would GSW trade Harrison Barnes?
If DeRozen is really available as some say, then I'd go with him.
Celtics fan for life.

If Mavs go tank mode, we should certainly go for Parsons. 26 year old borderline all-star caliber player on an affordable contract.

In order of attractiveness ...

Star talent - core player
DeMar DeRozan -- solid scorer and passer + above average defender/rebounder

Average to slightly above average starter
Harrison Barnes -- two way player with athleticism
Chandlar Parsons -- good offensive player, average defender. Nice 3rd/4th piece of the puzzle.

Prospect who can be long term starter
Mo Harkless -- defensive role player with potential as glue guy.

Tempted to bump Harkless ahead of Parsons and Harrison Barnes due to cost of acquisition (trade cost) and/or salary commitments (Parsons big payday and how that effects FA options in future offseasons). I really like Harkless as a low cost / good upside pickup. Harkless has a good case as my 2nd favourite after DeRozan.

Low Interest
Rudy Gay -- talented but problematic. Bad fit for team at this stage in their development.
TJ Warren -- Haven't seen enough of him. Do not know how good he can become.   

Zero Interest
Tyreke Evans -- needs team to be built around him. Not good enough to justify that.
Danillo Gallinari -- injuries + decline

You might as well throw Lebron James and Blake Griffin in there too because certainly they are available,  ::)

Really liked the idea of picking up Tobias Harris. If Harris truly isn't available we should aggressively pursue DeRozan.

Of the guys who might be at all available, Derozan is probably my top option.  After that, Terrence Ross, Wilson Chandler, & Gallo.

I'd be happy to go after Harkless, too, though I'm not sure if he'll ever be able to shoot.

It doesn't seem as though Dallas will trade Parsons, nor do I think Tyreke or Harrison Barnes will be available.  Rudy Gay is gonna be in Sacramento until they stop trying to win with this group.


My #1 preference for small forward for our team is Gordon Hayward but hey, as D.o.s. once said, I'm not gonna mess my pants over the thought of Danny trying to trade for the pride of Utah.

I like DeRozen but I think he needs the ball to be in his hands too much. I much rather a player like Barnes who can contribute without having to be the initiator of the offense.

I wont be complaing about either one at the end of the day.
