great trade idea (no really)

Wolves Trade: Pekovic, D-Will, Barea, Ridnour, Roy, Stiemsma, $3 million cash

Receive: Eric Gordon, Robin Lopez, Jason Smith, Kwame, cheap 3rd string PG from either other team


The Wolves reload the team with talent to stay in the playoff picture until Love gets back. A Rubio/Gordon/Shved back-court trio would be fantastic, and there'd be no squabble over PT either. Robin Lopez is on a very reasonable contract and is far better defensively than Pekovic. Jason Smith is a decent back-up PF that can start in Love's absence.

76ers Trade: Evan Turner, Kwame
Recive: Derrick Williams, Barea


The 76ers swap former #2 picks while landing Barea, who could be a very good Louis Williams-type sparkplug off the bench. The Sixers maintain the flexibility to make other deals before the trade deadline.

Hornets Trade: Eric Gordon, R. Lopez, J. Smith

Receive: Pekovic, Evan Turner, Ridnour, Stiemsma (EC), Roy (EC), $3 million

Pek/Stiemsma/AD AD/R.Anderson R.Anderson/Aminu/X.Henry E.Turner/A.Rivers/X.Henry G.Vasquez/Ridnour/E.Turner

The Hornets upgrade the C position with Pek, who could be a great fit with AD and/or Anderson. Turner can play and defend multiple positions and would give this Hornets team many different looks

Id really hate to get rid of Smith so if people think it would work somehow with retaining Smith im all for it.

I know ivr gotten some love and hate for the trades i post but i think this one is super legit
