Trade Grab Bag 1. Trade the #2 Pick for Marcus Smart, Satoransky, Mitchell Robinson, Frank Ntilikina and picks???
Trade 2.1. #7, Blake Griffin for #2, Poole, Wiggins
Trade 2.2. Nikola Vucevic for #2
This from our favorite wheelchair salesman Paul Pierce:
Trade 2.3. Larry Nance Jr, #5 for #2

I don't see any of these happening. All of these guys are expensive, Griffin has problems staying healthy, and it's not clear that any of them move the needle that much. In any case, I'd like to see what Wiggins can do with a new system with Curry, Thompson, Green and Looney on the floor with him. He would be the 3rd option which really ought to translate to a lot of open looks.
I'm hearing a potential trade with the Suns for a pick swap + Oubre for 2nd overall pick. I'm not sure if the Suns would go for that though tbh since they probably want to compete next year.
