For those people who keep coming up with trade proposals

I've seen a lot of different ideas come up and rather than respond to each thread the same way every time I'll make a thread for it.

Right now, we just don't have the pieces to make a big trade that will make us that much better. Everything I've seen is pretty much a lateral move at best and most of them solve one problem by opening up another problem and few of them do anything to help our bench play.

The fact of the matter is, we are a young team in the middle of a rebuilding process, and one trade is not going to instantly make us a contender. The best we can hope for to become a contender soon is to make a huge FA signing with a guy like Josh Smith or Andre Iguodala.

But in reality, its going to take time, and trading away guys like Vasquez and Lopez who have really been improving and are playing well together and trading away future draft picks just isn't the answer. We are young, and will just have to accept that our time is in the future.
