Title: Simple, Need-Based MIN / BOS Trade Idea
Post by: ssspence on January 04, 2013, 11:21:19 AM
MIN Trades: Stiemsma, Ridnour
BOS Trades: Lee, Wilcox

Ridnour is currently playing significant minutes for the Wolves, but with Shved and Berea handling the ball a great deal and Rubio returning, Rindour is movable.

The Wolves are in high need of the wing. Lee is a nice fit for Adelman's offense.

Wilcox for the Foul King is a hideous downgrade.

No interest whatsoever in this deal - or Stiemsma.

Just FYI, Wilcox is the worst defender on the Cs... when's he healthy.... which he never is... just like right now.

There is already another thread based on the same idea, save the substitution of Wilcox for Collins.

All Wilcox is good for is easy points in transition. We now have plenty of guys who are capable of that (although Doc's offensive strategy isn't making much use of that strength in those guys).

Stiemsma, however, fills a hole on this team. He's a shot blocking presence, which we desperately need when KG is off the floor, and he's a solid rebounder. Wilcox is a worse rebounder than everyone but Terry and Collins.

I'd absolutely do this trade. Who knows, a small fix might be all we need.

Thanks for pointing out. For what it's worth, I'd say there's an overestimation of Stiemsma's value to Min there.
