A package of Curry, 'Buike, Gallo, AR, and even Mason/TD only add up to about $19-20M. We don't have enough contracts to match up with Melo/Nene's salaries.

Only Harrington or Birdman have a small enough contract that adding Azubuike's can get a trade to work.

I'm no fan of Harrington, but by agreeing to take on his contract, we can keep more of our young players (possibly all 3 of Gallo, Chandler, Fields), and maximize any potential Chandler S&T in the summer, where he can net us a lot of value.

actually scoshin, the trade works in Trade Checker:

Trade checker may work but I am not sure the trade makes sense. Denver can trade Melo and Nene separately and get more for the both of them (Nene would command a LOT, even with an expiring).

And Denver would be losing their starting center... I would think that they would want Turiaf or Moz back in the trade, and I would gladly give either (preferably Turiaf).
