Not sure how much Phoenix would want for mikal bridges. Oubre is clearly their SF of the future and Bridges won't get much opportunities as long as he's playing. He dropped 26 in Boston tonight on 10-13 shooting and have all the tools to be an elite starting caliber 3D player.
I get the feeling we're gonna be looking for a 5 out PF/C at the deadline or in the buyout market. We went small with Jeff Green at C early in the season. We tried to go small in this game. I really think that Quin wants that option in the bag of tricks but we haven't found the right big for it yet.
I'd love it
Vonleh should be attainable. He's cheap.

I'm basically opposed to sweeping changes. We have great chemistry AND we've been winning. The old adage is "if it ain't broke why fix it?". I think it's crazy to consider trading guys that are being productive in our system for that reason. Still, if there's a bargain out there that gives us options and we don't give up anything for him, why the hell not. For this reason I propose sending N.W.G to OKC for Mike Muscala. Muscala is a 6'10"stretch 4/5 that is having a brutal year but has pretty good stats career wise such as .458 FG%, 355 3%, 840 FT%. They're loaded with bigs and wings but don't have any pgs other than Paul and Shroder. For this reason I think it's feasible and win win. Trade works in NBA Trade Machine.
We were always planning to have Royce back. I suppose it depends on what they think he would have gone for in the summer. If they think he would have gone for $12-13M, then this gives us more flexibility to play with (relative to what they were expecting). In any case, I think any deadline move is done for this season. We don’t have any assets to pick up something really good. But if we’re able to land a Vonleh or an Olynyk, then that’s good and it’s with an eye (mostly) on this year.

If only Conley would opt out...
