yea I could see that. I really think Fournier is one the most underrated players in the league and is getting better every year. He would be great next to AD and DC

Assuming we sign both Holidays and James Young (to a minimum type deal), we will need to add one more player (by trade) to solidify ourselves as a playoff team. We have some ammunition to work with: 2018 first, Moore (he and Justin Holiday are redundant), Ajinca, Pondexter's expiring, about 5.5 million in trade exceptions, and Asik (of course).

I am confident, we have enough to offer in a trade. Leaving Bledsoe and Rubio out of the conversation (we have beat that same drum over and over), there are some interesting names that could be available. Some players that would fit:
MKG- with Charlotte drafting Monk, it seems either him or Batum would be the odd man out. I don't really like his fit on this team with already having Solo.
Bazemore- I think he would be a good fit. Atlanta seems to be in a rebuild, trading Howard and likely losing Millsap.
Fournier- Great fit, would add needed size and offense on the wing.
DeRozan- One can wish. If Lowry doesn't re-sign, maybe they rebuild. Very unlikely.
Dellavedova- Bucks are nearing the cap and looking to shed salary. Giving Delly Frazier's minutes would drastically improve this team.
TJ Warren- Maybe the Suns see Josh Jackson as a better fit next to Booker. We likely would have to accept a bad contract (Knight) to get him.

This is a legit playoff team:

PG- Holiday/ Cooke
SG- Bazemore/ Crawford/ Jackson
SF- Hill/ Holiday/ Young
PF- Davis/ Diallo
C- Cousins/ Ajinca/ Asik

I listed Boogie at C since Gentry referred to him as one. The trade I incorporated was Moore, Pondexter's expiring, and 2018 first for Bazemore.
