Monroe for Tyreke still makes sense as the most likely big move the Pels could make.

Monroe + Keep our 2017 pick vs.

Giving up our pick for Noel/Okafor/Vucevic.

Considering the biggest reason for the acquisition price difference is years of control and that shouldn't be a concern with Monroe, it seems like you have to go with Monroe if you're going this direction at all.

I realize Noel is a bit different in that he's a defensive flavor of one way big and unlike Asik he can finish at the rim reliably, but do you really want to give up a 1st to pay $20 million for an Asik upgrade while you still have Asik on the roster? Getting Tyreke while Gordon was still on the roster with uncertain trade value ended up being a poor decision that locked the Pels into an unbalanced roster for a few years.

if they do a Noel trade now:

1) they get a year of Noel on his rookie deal
2) they might play defense well enough to make the playoffs and thus put that pick out of the lottery
3) they can re sign Noel at his 20 and try to move asik next year

all of this assumes holiday comes back in time to help
