Wow that is just awful. Bynum will never stay healthy. Iggy can't shoot. Ridnour are you kidding me. You want to trade favors for Webster that just make me want to run to the bathroom and have some serious diarrhea.
If you had an untarnished reputation before, you just tarnished it.

We have three big needs: An athletic wing that can score from the outside, get to the basket and defend some, a defensive minded center that can score a little bit.. Right now, we have solid pieces to trade in Jefferson, Okur, Millsap and Harris. For sure I want to keep Favors and see what he will look like at the end of his contract and also resign Kirilenko. Ideally, Millsap and AK would come off the bench. Lastly, we need a pure point guard that can shoot a little bit. Since the Timberwolves will hardly try to sign Rubio, I think they might be ready to trade their first pick. Okur, Jefferson, Favors and Millsap and Kirilenko are all Power Forwards, we're loaded at this position. Harris is also not the best solution as a point guard and I think he won't stay for long. So the best pieces we could and would want to trade should be Harris, Jefferson and Okur. We should keep Millsap because of his good contract.
I'm still fuming players like Barnes, Jones, Sullinger stayed in school. We'd have a shot at someone good like Kanter getting pushed down to us.
I know Kanter is gone by 6 in this draft, and Bismark has a good shot to be gone if he has good workouts. Hell, even Knight might not be there.
Do the Euros really excite you, or do you just not know enough about them?
There is still a decent chance we get Bismark, but I'm not going to expect him or Kanter there at 6(to help prevent huge disappointment).

I remain hopeful that Bismack will be there at 6

It's quite difficult with the contracts we have to find pieces to trade for with the trade checker, since we don't have many players under contract right now. Many we have are heavy contracts that you can't trade that easily. It will be difficult to find trade partners. Who wants Harris, Jefferson or Okur at this price? What about Al Jefferson, Okur, Raja Bell and the 12. pick for Bogut, Magette and Ilyasova? I hate Magette and his contract, but we have to include him to get this done. He has two years left on his contract, will get some free throws and will drive to the basket but won't do anything else. Ilyasova on the other side, can shoot froom deep, rebounds very well and is a solid defender.
Put in Millsap and Harris next for a trade to get a solid starter point guard and a guard as a filler. By adding Kanter and Kirilenko via resign, we should have a solid team. Sign some veterans, a big that can defend and a shooting guard that can shoot and play some defense.
Starting Lineup:
C - Bogut - Favors
PF - Kanter - Favors - Ilyasova
SF - Kirilenko - Ilyasova
SG - Hayward - Magette - filler guard
PG - Starter via trade (I have no idea who it could be ) - Watson

Look...I like Kanter. But this is the worst idea I've seen yet, and that's saying something. Favors alone for Webster and Ridnour would be one of the worst trades in NBA history.

What if we include the first pick, Webster and Ridnour for Favors, Bell and the 12th pick (but Minnesota would try to get the 6. pick at least, i think)? We could get Irving.
Bynum(Okur)-Kanter(Kirilenko)-Iguodala(Kirilenko)-Hayward(Webster)-Irving(Ridnour), would look solid, or not?

I understand homerism but your love for kanter is rediculous. To have him starting over favors is a joke. If I had my choice right now to draft kanter or favors 10 out of 10 times it is favors.
