If Javale McGee can be had for a fruit basket then Al Jefferson can be had for a continental breakfast
There's not enough fukkery in NBA trades.

Not long ago, I was watching this soccer news show I would tune into every night and they had the funniest conversation about a Romanian soccer player getting traded for 33 pounds of pork sausage. Dude was so insulted he just up and quit playing altogether to look for a job in agriculture or construction :russ:

Miller is one of the worst players in the league at his current state. He doesn't even get burn anymore, Temple does

Yeah, he played well until the end of December but has fallen off.

Calderon can shoot and do the same things as old man Miller except post up.

But Calderon makes too much and would intervene in #KD2DC

If I'm the Wizards, I try to get Isaiah Thomas

I'd trade our 2016 first, but not our 2015. We really need that pick to be a good one who will hopefully grow into a cheap contributing player by his second season in 2016.

So: 2016 1st + Miller + Blair for Thomas. Make it so.

Isaiah solves a lot of problems for us. Bench scorer? Check. Quality backup PG to give Wall some rest? Check. Good enough shooter to steal some SG minutes alongside Wall? Check. Young? Check. Better end-of-quarter iso scorer than Wall? Check.

Seems like a deal that would be too good to be true for the Wiz. The Suns' asking price for Miles Plumlee is a late 1st rounder, the asking price for Isaiah Thomas has to be way more than that

If the Suns want to keep Dragic and panic, they could get a worse haul IMO.

The rockets would gladly give up the Pelicans probably 2015 lottery pick for dragic

Not saying that's the best offer but it's definitly better than your proposed offer

It is

But if Woj is accurate, the Suns want to keep Dragic. And Dragic wants his role back to last season. The solution is to get rid of Thomas and balance the roster.

Hell, I'd give them Webster too, maybe their medical staff can resuscitate him.

Anything to get Otto Porter more minutes, I'm down for.
