Yeah, I know another trade thread (hey, Knicks are off until Wednesday)

Anyway, Seattle is desperate for a a big man, and with the prospects of them being up for sale, And Lewis being a free agent (and he's hurt and not helping them right now) and its unknown whether or not they want to commit long term to him, this might be a good time to swing a deal with a team in desperation mode.

Outgoing
Frye
Crawford (Seattles favorite son)

Incomming Rahard Lewis

With Lewis being hurt, this is obviously a move for the future. But I think it makes sense for us. Lewis is the perfect compliment to curry on the offensive end. A wing who can shoot and spread the floor. He's a proven 20 ppg scorer, and could become the Robin to Currys Batman.

This move also moves Lee in at PF, whose game will compliment both Lewis and Curry. I perfer Lewis over Allen because he's younger, and Lewis is a much bigger upgrade at the 3 over Jeffries than Allen is at the 2 over Craw.

We'd be the worst defensive team in the league but I'd do it
Curry/Cato
Lee/JJ/Rose
Shard/Balkman
Q/Nate
Marbury/francis

Craw and Frye, the 2 players we would be moving aren't defensive players. Jeffries can still get time off the bench, and Q moves in as the 2 guard. Lewis isn't known as a defensive specialist by any stretch but he is a 6'10 sf. I would guess his wing span could/should help him defensively.

Seattle ain't making any Rashard deals that don't get them back Curry or D Lee & others in the package, so forget it... Frye & Craw ain't gonna do it.
