No, I'd rather let Allen and Scal expire and keep some financial room. Maybe I'd do it in a scenario where I could keep adding to the pay-roll till 2012.
Would Phoenix do this: Giddens + Top 3 protected 1st for Jared Dudley?
Jared Dudley, a role player for a 1st? Not good value for Boston. Really the Barbosa trade is bad. Barbosa is a slightly better Eddie House. If you are looking for a distributor ... keep looking.
Odds are its a 1st rounder near the end of the round. Not sure if you're gonna get someone at that slot who is going to be exponentially better than Dudley.
Personally, I'd love to see Dudley back in Boston. The kid has developed into a bonafide role player in these league and can be a bit flexible position-wise. I think he'd be a good fit off this bench. He's low cost for next season too which would be a plus.
The question is really whether Phoenix would do this. It depends on how fiscally tight they want to really get, I guess. They'd be trimming over $4 million from next year (by my numbers if you include the luxury tax) and it does seem like every cent counts with that organization. The 1st rounder might be enough to entice them.
