Yup..It's possible.

Knicks clearing space for a chance to bring Lebron to the Big Apple to play alongside Melo. Bosh going to opt out and go with him while wade stays. Bye bye heat fans.

Honestly, I think LeBron will end up with the Heat.

Don't think Dalembert will stay in NY. Would be a decent pickup for cheap price if we can't land a center.

Orlando is finalizing a trade to send guard Arron Afflalo to the Denver Nuggets, league sources told Yahoo Sports.


Say what? They traded Afflalo for a short term rental of Iggy and now they're presumably trading #11 to get Afflalo back?

Austin did go to high school in the Orlando area, so they could have interest, but getting Chandler eats up the cap space you need to absorb Asik.

Orlando will receive Evan Fournier and the No. 56 pick from Denver for Arron Afflalo, I'm told. Yahoo reported Afflalo was outbound.

That's a damn good move for Denver

It is, Orlando had been wanting a kings ransom for Afflalo.

As I posted in the MSB thread on this, I think Orlando isn't coming out too bad.

If you look at it through the prism of the Howard / Bynum trade that got them Affalo from Denver to begin with, they've gotten a lot of assets from that trade and sending Affalo back while the other three lost their big players within a year of that trade.

Chicago might be kicking themselves right now if that's all it took.

That's trade rape by Denver.

Damn. If that's the market for Afflalo, we aren't dumping Gordon. Not happening.

I'd forgotten that Denver offered Faried/Afflalo/Chandler for Love. Wonder if that's coming.

And the West gets even more stacked.

MM has been speculating Dallas' moves are about going after Kyle Lowry. So they add Tyson Chandler and Lowry.

Denver adds Love, Kevin Martin, Galinari

Minnesota loses Love and KMart but add Faried, Chandler and Afflalo.

Pelicans add Asik and ???

Phoenix has 3 1sts and the cap space to keep Bledsoe.

Orlando could be a landing spot for Gordon. If they decline Nelson's option they would only have about $28m on the books. If we could somehow get something of value for Rivers, maybe that will entice them to take him on.

Hell you argue the wolves would be even better than with love.

Rubio
Afflalo
Chandler
Faried
Pekovic

Dieung/Barea/Shabazz/Shevd/Pick

That's pretty legit

That team isn't making the playoffs in the West.

That is a 6 seed in the East. In the West it's at best 10th.

Are the better than the following teams?

Spurs? Nope
Thunder? Nope
Clippers? Nope
Rockets? Nope
Blazers? Nope
Warriors? Nope
Griz? Nope
Mavs? Nope
Suns? Nope
Pelicans? Maybe...

There's no reason to make a trade like that. Either get a star in return or take young players, picks and start to rebuild.
