Alot of player movement of role players (no big stars traded)....

Phoenix Suns
Trades
James Jones
Kurt Thomas
#21
#27

Gets
J.R. Smith
Steve Blake
#12

Why? Suns get a back up PG and a young SG and a mid round pick to use on Hilton Armstrong. They also save about 8 mil to re-sign Tim Thomas and extend Barbosa's and Diaw's contract.

New Orleans Hornets
Trades
J.R. Smith
PJ Brown
Desmond Mason
Arvydas Macijauskas
#12
#15

Gets
Theo Ratliff
James Jones
Marko Jaric
Eddie Griffin
#4
#27

Why? Hornets trade Smith and Macijauskas (who were on the way out) for strength and a top pick and a filler pick. And only increasing the payroll by a few million.

Charlotte Bobcats
Trades
Matt Carroll
Primoz Brezec
#3

Gets
Kurt Thomas
Arvydas Macijauskas
Mark Madsen
#6
#30

Why? Bobcats get a vet to help the team advance and two cheap guys that can role play around the younger stars. They still have a top pick and get a filler in the draft.

Steve Blake
Theo Ratliff

PJ Brown

Wow... that's a very complicated trade idea.
I don't think any GM posseses such a high level of creativity.
Suns should trade only in order to save money.
Your roster is great and if you have a good draft it will be even better.
You don't need to mess with it too much.

NO!.................I want Kurt. The guy gives us someone who can bang bodies and take fouls away from Amare.

The only person I would care to trade is Barbosa. Thats about it.
