Trade Rumor From NBADraft.Net Involving Andre Iguodala And The #3 Pick

wait... what? I thought this was the final year of Okur's contract. Dammit to hell if not.
 
Memo is expiring next year.

Not sure where the three for thirty-three is coming from.

EDIT:

Oh, I see where it came from.

Can't just subtract 11 million from Iggy's three year deal, Chad. They would owe Iguodala 30.6 million dollars for two years AFTER Memo would have expired.

This trade would help the bench a ton. Sap, Meeks, Hawes, Bell, Miles, #12, Watson.

So you use the #3 to help the bench and get a guy with a ton of downside risk (health, declining stats...and COST)? I agree this might be a weak draft but I think you have to at least take a player you HOPE will be a starter. I'd rather have a Kanter, Knight, even Valanciunas - or hope DWill drops to #3 than take an aging vet.

And Dwill, how are figuring "huge" for every other position? Favors and Jefferson are both 6'10." So slighlty above at PF but below at center. And that's IF Favors starts - he won't; Millsap will. Harris is 6'3", not small, but not big either. And he plays "small" relying on quickness instead of posting up. Then you'd have Iggy at 6'6" and Hayward at 6'8." Match Iggy against a SG and Hayward vs. a SF and you have perhaps a slight advantage with Igoudala, but a wash or less with Hayward at SF. Turn that around and you have an advantage at SG, but then Iggy is an undersized SF.
 
Okur's contract expires in 2012. One more season. If there is one.

And hell no. This team needs to GET AWAY from trading for flawed, overpaid players in their prime and GET INTO drafting good players and letting them grow together. Holy hell no.
 
I for one wouldn't mind this deal at all as long as Williams is gone before before 3. If williams is on the board at 3 I say take him, if not I'd do this trade.

Not many players are the total package. Most shooting wings aren't going to play as good of defense, be able to rebound or pass like Iggy. Iggy can do everything but shoot, but thats kind of ok since we have a great shooting in Haywerd. A huge problem for a long time has been our wings getting beat off the dribble and our bigs having to come help out. Iggy would help that situations a lot. We are going to bitch about any wing we get no matter what. We will either bitch about him not being athletic enough, or being able to play D, or not being a good enough shooter.

We get way deeper with this trade. Jodie is a good shooter off the bench, and spencer would be a very nice backup center.

As long as we are also dumping okur and getting picks back I'm all for this trade.

I guess I was looking it from the perspective of not having to pay memo to do absolutely nothing this year which is entirely possible. But you're right.

Not saying it's a slam dunk hell yes deal. Just saying it's a lot of value for a guy who could end up being like Darko
