Diesel Says... Let's trade.

[Diesel]

I have the right trade:

#3, Lue, and Marvin to Seattle for #2, Petro, and Ridnour.

With #2, let's take Durant.

With #11, let's take Law.

Here's the rationale for the trade.

Seattle gets out of Ridnour's contract. They get to sign a PG like Conley Jr. and they get fan favorite Marvin.

Our squad would be:

Petro, Durant, JSmoove, JJ, and Law!!!!

[Vafan]

Why would we need Law if we get Ridnour? I would pick BPA at the 11th pick. Maybe Noah? Noah would fit in a uptempo team. Ridnour, JJ, Durant, Smoove and Noah would be Phoenix lite.

[Diesel]

Yeah, you make a good point, but... I think Law probably would be the best player available. Noah may not be around that late. I don't see it. If J. Wright fell that far, I would take him...maybe.

Silly goose. Why would Seattle do that. Billy would have to be their GM to do that.

If we offered #3,#11, and Marvin for #2 - they might do it. But otherwise they'd be stupid. For us, such a big drop off from #2 to #3. Just keep the picks and get our center and PG.

I'm afraid BK might send both picks for Bibby. Or he could draft two more forwards.

I agree it would take a huge package to get the #1 or 2 picks in this draft and even something like #3, #11, Marvin and Shelden for #1 might not be enough (which is why I can still feel a let down after missing out on the #1/2 slots).

Well, it depends.

If Lewis is definitely traded, maybe they don't.

But if they have thoughts of keeping Lewis... what purpose does getting Durant Serve?

Also, you have to measure: Marvin vs. Durant. How does Seattle see it?

I don't know... I won't say that Seattle is not budging. Especially if it's only one spot.

Here we go again.................................

How does Seattle see Marvin vs. Durant? Like everybody else sees Marvin vs. Durant: no contest!

Your trade is not even remotely close to being reasonable from Seattle's point of view. IF they decide to trade the #2 pick, they will have people beating down their doors with a helluva lot better offer than that.
