    I don't understand the fascination with CP3 and KLow. You just had Harden come off the best year of his career at the PG position and you want to sign another ball dominant PG to send him back to SG.

    IMO you don't mess with a good thing

    Anderson to the Wolves makes sense.

    This definitely seems to be true, but in general I never trust Stein on anything Rocket-related.

    Yep it's definitely debatable. I leaned towards Blake due to the fact that his athleticism alone would make him a beast in the PnR with Harden. I think Millsap is the safer player though.

    I wonder if the two moves to make are a:

    Williams/Anderson/Beverley for an asset or two

    +

    Some of Gordon/Ariza/Capela/Dekker/Harrel plus draft pick/asset from above for George

    Then you have George plus cap space for one big name

    I wouldn't trade Beverley if I could get back his clone plus a draft pick.

    Two point guards and two power forwards. Harden is moving back to SG no matter what.

    You're right, no question about that, i'm alos a bit scared about his durability, his athleticism seems already declining a bit too...

    Surprised Blake Griffin is on the list, I don't know how he fits our system and he seems to be an injury risk.

    It's going to take Bev's contract in order to get rid of Anderson's contract. I would bet that they get paired together in any trade.

    Feel free to put EGO in there too. Dude balls, but his value is at its peak and I'll cash in my chips now, with 1 relatively injury free season. Asking for 2 seems greedy. If you can mitigate that risk in a trade that nets you an even better player it wouldn't bother me.

    Beverley is the only one I'm partial to. I just don't think we'd get much bang-for-the-buck trading him and his contract away right now. But for all I know Paul or Lowry might make him obsolete, although that seems hard to do since both players tend to get injured and could use a good, defensive-oriented sub.

    That seems unrealistic. They are not going to have to choose 3/4 ...lulz

    It's kind of crazy but...Harden had a MVP season as a SG and PG...

    I realize that doesn't matter, he is and always will be a combo guard.
