The Blazers and the 76ers (barely) are the only two teams that could absorb his contract completely without getting anything in return. I don't know if the Blazers would do it for anything less than a 1st rounder in 2016 (maybe top 3 protected) thrown in as well given there is still a lot of money left on Asik's deal after this season and I don't even know if they would do that.

Combining Asik and Tyreke would put whatever team got them on the hook for over 20 million next season and most likely eat a good portion or all of the cap space this summer. Is Tyreke worth that trade off for other teams?

The Nets are interested in winning this season and reportedly would take on long term salary to do it. Tyreke and Asik for Joe Johnson and filler would be the type of move the Pels would make if they were smart and decided to strip the roster down. We are not trading a 1st to dump Asik.

Brooklyn might do it

Tyreke+Asik for Johnson+filler

They don't own their pick and have no guards worth a frick right now.

ETA: would gladly throw in a 2nd that we got for ish
