Assuming we can't get OJ, Rose or Beas.

Trade 1 - # 6 + Nate, Balkman to NJ for # 10 + # 21 + Boone

Draft DJ Augustin @ 10, draft CDR @ 21

Why for Nets? Allows them to draft a player they won't see @ 10 like Kevin Love or Anthony Randolph.
Why for Knicks? Transform the roster.

Trade 2 - Trade Lee, Collins for Sergio Rodriguez, Josh McRoberts & # 13

Draft Jevale McGee

Why for Blaze? Rudy Fernandez en route at PG gives them a boatload of PGs. Lee steps in front of Frye as a dynamic 6th man (where have we heard that before).

Why for Knicks? Transform the roster.

Knick Roster:

C: Curry / McGee
PF: ZBo / Boone / McRoberts
SF: Chandler / CDR would get some minutes here / JJ2 / Q
SG: Craw / CDR
PG: Augustine / Rodriguez / tell Marbury to stay home until his contract expires (a la Tim Thomas)

Summary: Now we'd have a young & unique C to develop, a young pass-1st PG combo, a tough swing man in CDR & two lengthy rebounders/shot blockers to cushion the fact that Zack & Eddy are inclined to do neither.

You want a good center to develop? Draft one now. You want a solid guard. Go after Paul, after next season.

In that scenario >>> McGee would be the drafted C to develop.

What about that doesn't make sense?

btw...none of that hurts the ability to go after CP3 ro LBJ

matter of fact, it gives you players, actual desirable players to perhaps use in a S & T down the road

So essentially we are helping a team in our conference that is positioning themselves for Lebron that already has a better squad and more young talent get a better player and two solid role players for a second draft choice. That is just absurd.

Sergio right now is a question mark, Lee is not, you want the extra choice we are not taking that scrub McGee so we can send him to the DL to battle Patrick O'Bryant. Joe Alexander would be a much smarter choice there.

You would be better off just taking Westbrook with our draft choice and looking to move crawford for Ford.

Which helps any team get Lebron?

the 1st deal merely is a trade down w/ spare parts to get volume (DJ + CDR would be a lot better than just Westbrook)


btw...I do like Alexander a lot, so I agree w/ you there
