Would you do it? Suggestion by Pelicans site: Moose - OJMayo to for EGordon-Asik

[heyvik]

Saw this and thought it would benefit both teams

NO gets: Greg Monroe and OJ Mayo (Monroe has been underperforming for the Bucks

Mil gets: Asik and E Gordon (Asik to be defensive presence to help struggling Bucks def)

Would you do it?

Not if I'm Milwaukee.

great trade for NO terrible for Bucks.

NO is one of the few teams that can accommodate the much maligned defensively deficient low post scoring big man. AD gives them such versatility at the PF that they have a huge roster building advatage over most other teams. While I think the above proposed trade is too one sided for NO it does give an example of what may work.

Pairing AD with a big like Monroe in the starting lineup and then backing them up with a stretch/face up 4 would give them great versatility. Some other NO targets

Pekovic, if healthy he could be a nice 20-25 MPG starter next to AD. Ideally a trade for him ships Asik to a 3rd team (not sure who)

Gallinari, if NO could some how use Gordon and Anderson in multi team deals to land Gallinari I think he would be an excellent fit with AD.

Starting 5

Holiday
Evans
Gallonari
AD
Pek

6th need a decent 3-D SF
7th scoring PG

real rough plan and injury concerns to Pek likey make it unreasonable but this is just a rough idea towards what I think would work to build around AD

I think I agree with this.

Although theoretically Gordon would give the Bucks an outside shooter. But I don't know about taking on Asik, especially when they pitched hard for Monroe this past offseason.

agree with above - NO does it in a heartbeat while Milwaukee hangs up the phone.  Still don't think it would nearly enough to salvage NO's season.
