Wouldn't Bell be your starting SF after that trade? He didn't even make your lineup.Originally Posted by Joe Asberry
And LDB, I didn't realize that Okafor was teammates with them. That would be interesting to have 3 guys that were teammates in college all starting on the same team in the pros.
I don't think we'd get Okafor for Rip straight up, but if we could work in taking on a few million in salary from them, that wouldn't be a bad deal.
Pistons Get:
Okafor - 10.5
Nazr - 6.5
Ajinca - 1.4
-Total of 18.4
Bobcats Get:
Rip - 11.6
Kwame - 4
-Total of 15.6
That clears about 3 million in cap space for Charlotte. I don't know how high on Ajinca they are. He's a 7 footer but he's only 225 pounds. The guy has a huge wingspan but no strength whatsoever.
We'd be:
Stuckey/Bynum
Gordon/Stuckey/AA
Prince/Daye/Summers
Villa/Max/Jarebko
Okafor/Nazr/Ajinca
If they want to keep Ajinca, we'd have to do some work. I'm not sure how cash considerations work. How much can someone include? They sub Raja Bell (5.3) and cash and we add Afflalo (1.1) and Sharpe (0.7). We'd have 16.4 going out and 22.3 coming in, difference of 4.9 million. Since we only have about 4 million in cap space, we'd have to get around a million in cash or get another team involved. We could cut that down a bit by subbing Diop (6) for Nazr or Max (5) for Kwame.
Radman can be subbed for Nazr in all of this. The have the same salary.
