So would I, but don't you think that money would be better used upgrading the SF position instead if our 4th big?
My guess is Anderson is gone if this happens

They get Blatche, who is solid off the bench, and move Anderson for a solid 3-and-D SF and I'm ok with losing Ryno

I agree. I still think this strongly indicates Ryno is being traded. Ryno/Asik/AD pretty much gives you all you would want with your big men. It would be completely useless to bring Blatche in.

Well it's either Ryno and MLE SF or Blatche and whatever SF we get for Ryno

The fact that we're signing another big hints to us trading Ryno rather than Gordon.

Doesn't Blatche have some range on his shot? Not a bad pickup. He was solid in limited minutes for the Nets. 18/9 per 36 19 PER

Not true actually. We don't have the MLE unless we create some cap space via trade.

The market just probably isn't there for Gordon

And on the other hand Dell is probably beating people off with a stick for Anderson

I'm reading that there is a big market for Hawes, if that's true I'm sure that there is an even bigger push for Ryno, if he's available.

No, we could trade Rivers and be under the cap but still not have enough to use the MLE. In order to use the MLE, we are only allowed to take back 150% of the salary we send back in a trade.

I mean, my point was Dell will make sure to get the MLE. I'm not exactly sure how all that works

I think we should have kept Miller imo. He is a good player off the bench
