Dirk Nowitzki in da hauuuussssssssssssss

Holy crap, David Griffin and Chris Grant are miracle workers they way they are playing all you people! THE CAVALIERS WANT NO PART OF BRAD BEAL. I GUARANTEE IT. Unless he slides to 4 (not happening) they won't take him! They want MKG or Harrison Barnes. I guarantee it. They set the smokescreen that they want Beal, raising his value and making MKG slide to them. Its brilliant. And it worked. The next two days will be filled with rumors about this but at the end of it all, it'll be 1. Davis, 2. Robinson, 3. Beal, 4. MKG MKG and Irving played HS bball together and MKG would be great with Kyrie. They were able to stretch the floor some this year as it is, and wouldn't build around a PG-SG combo. They will do PG-SF-PF/C once they draft one next year or with the 24 pick. #endrant

I personally want Kanter over trading assets for Williams, but I hate low IQ bonehead players like Blatche so I dont mind giving him up. Also, I dont think Kanter will be there at 6 and we need someone to take some of the load off of Wall. On the solid rebounding hardworking player note.... Paul Millsap is available for trade http://probasketballtalk.nbcsports.com/2011/06/16/report-utah-jazz-open-to-trading-millsap-harris/ Dude averaged 17.3 pts and 7.6 rebs last year and would fit great into our line up. As for actually trading for him...its going to take quite a bit but he's only 26 so it might be worth it. I would happy to give them Blatche and the 18th, but it might take more than that. Giving up the 6th would probably be too much for my liking unless we get the 12th pick back or something along those lines. I might be getting stingy here, cause hes a stud inside. Probably another team will have to get in on the action to make it work. Our lineup could look like this: C- McGee PF- Millsap SF- Crawford(3guard-lineup)/Booker/Leonard (if we keep the 6th) SG-Young PG-Wall Lots of scoring there. Defense would be somewhat suspect which is why I inserted Leonard because a defensive minded SF would be our pick then. Booker fits the mold too.

Aldridge just tweeted that theres 0% chance we include Javale in a trade to Minny for the 2nd pick

We're definitely in a bind. Crawford and Young, the two players who are somewhat expendable that Minny would want, we can't trade according to the ESPN trade machine. Young is a FA, and Crawford was acquired during last season so we can't move him either. I think the only way this is going to happen if its a 3 way deal with Minny getting a SG from another team. It could work with Minny getting the 6th pick and the Shooting Guard, 3rd Team getting Blatche, and the 34th pick, Us getting the 2nd and maybe 1 player from Minny.
