Philly recently demanded that they get a pick for Spencer Hawes and another for Evan Turner in any trade. Would sending them 2 of OKC's 2014 picks work in this trade: http://espn.go.com/nba/tradeMachine?tradeId=nswd57x

I can't decide if Turner is a good all rounder, or if he's not actually good at anything. We do need to target these kind of on the cusp players rather than established stars though.

We have two 2nd picks in 2014?
John Starks is the greatest

They want 1st round picks and we have none this year.

Yeah, Turner is bit unpredictable and I'm still not sure what to make of him. I was very high on him entering the draft and I think the hype surrounding him from then, still effects my opinion of him today. I think its a major reason why I still have a optimistic/positive view of him despite his obvious and concerning flaws. In a deal like this, I think that the risk of Turner (and Asik) is mitigated by ditching JR and getting value for a declining Tyson Chandler. Because of that, I think that the deal is worth making in spite of the potential pitfalls.

Dude, just read the one and a half lines that I wrote. OKC gives up both of their first round picks for this draft.

Timmy is probably more valuable than Evans who probably couldn't be resigned. Also, Lin is not coming back and OKC is not giving 2 1st for Chandler. IF the Knicks some how got 2 1s for Tyson the smartest thing to do would be to use them in the offseason to unload Amar'e or Bargs. Then they would have the opportunity to maybe get a Lowry or Deng in the summer straight up.

My fault I tend to gloss over the ESPN trade machine links. I am too used to unrealistic trades from those things(not saying yours is or is not unrealistic).
