At this point only 2 players make sense. Cousins and Westbrook...Even though I think both are longshots Cousins is on a team that can not win so they can ask for the Celtics treasure of picks.. Westbrook is even a longer shot because he will be a FA next season..Now I think many more possibilities will be available the trade deadline ... The Dantoni project will ultimately fail and look for Harden to hit the market as well as the situation in Chicago which will likely put Butler back on the market..Those who think Griffin, there is no shot .. LAC are gunning for a championship run every year and rebuilding with picks isnt happening..Overall its easy to call this bluff but the only name that makes sense with all total hype would be Boogie...

Sacramento just hired Joerger to coach, Ken Catanella to be assistant GM, and they signed a couple of vets (Afflalo, Barnes, Tolliver, Tmple) to short term deals. By the moves, I think they'll make one last push to build around Demarcus and revisit a trade next offseason since Afflalo, Tolliver, and Barnes' contracts aren't guaranteed beyond this season.
It's either Khris Middleton or Jimmy Butler
Brook Lopez? Amir, Jerebko, Rozier, filler and the Memphis and Clipper picks?Mike

Signing a bunch of short term contracts with role players tells you its a non committed team.. They can easily ship those contracts out if necessary... This is a team that is stuck in no where land... they have to roll the dice... If they get a shot at the next 2 firsts rounds from the Celtics plus their own lottery picks then they at least will eventually get the fans and media excited...
To Jazz: Rozier, Crowder, Mickey (i hope not), 2017 2nd round picksTo Celtics: HaywardThis is how the celts become better but maybe not good enough still to beat the cavs
