I'm not really interested in any other Ryno trades unless it somehow brings us back a better player. Like if you could replace Reke with Ryno in the Horford/Love proposed trade.

Sorry, no link, but apparently the Pelicans are not that interested in trading Ryno. Only if it was a killer deal. They may even try to figure out a way to re-sign him if they can also fill other needs, even for the short term.

That's certainly how you'd play it if you wanted a team desperate for Ryno to give up more.

Ryno is a good player, and while I'm not for signing him to $15+, the cap increasing $20 million again in 2017 means it wouldn't stop you from signing a top level FA in 2 years when more are on the market, especially if you can dump Asik by then. The problem with resigning Ryno is more a signal of a directional issue than Ryno is bad for the team. It suggests they aren't planning to change course much and they really need to.

This. Dell has no delusions of being able to sign a top SF with free cap. We are going to see plenty QPon minutes next season. Unless we hit the lottery, we'll be drafting our center help (Poeltl). We'll resign Ryno, flip Reke into a pick and try to rob the Grizzlies of both Jeff Green and Courtney Lee while they spend away on Mike Conley.
