Who can we sign-and-trade Brandon Bass for?

[ssspence]

I'd like to see the Cs sign-and-trade Bass for a player on a short contract instead of paying him for more than 2 years. Interested in folks' ideas.

Mine:

To the Nuggets for Corey Brewer. It'd limit Bass' payday to about $4mil in the first season, but if he could get that over -- say -- 4 years, he might take it (in the current cap era). Denver needs help at the 4.

Others? How about to Dallas for J Terry? He has history there...

I strongly believe Bass will be signed & traded. Don't know for who though, I think a lot is hinging on Ray Allen and whether or not we'll need to target an SG.

My hope though (albeit far fetched), is some type of a package deal for Josh Smith. That type of super athletic four is the missing piece that can push us past Miami.

My belief or hope is:

Kaman or Beasley.

I would say Josh smith also except I don't think salaries wold match; it would have to be a package centered around Bass.

Beasley seems very realistic though.

Josh Smith

I'd take a flier on Beasley for Bass, I wouldn't mind that at all actually. From all indications, he's a good kid. It'd just depend on his contract demands.

josh smith makes 12.5mil. sorta hoping some more realistic targets might get added to this thread.

He also has a trade kicker to push him up towards $15 million.  However, a combination of Bass and Ray (perhaps going to different teams) could work in a sign and trade for Smith.

Why would Bass do this?  H ewants more than $4 millionper year and according to reports he will get it.  The sign and trade only makes sense for him if A.  He gets more money doing it and B.  He wants to go to the team we do the trade with and C.  That team has someone we want...

why would ray want to play in ATL without Josh Smith?  why would he want to play there -- period?

I don't see Bass getting a contract in the range of what Big Baby got. Agreed -- price could be too low, but i don't think it's far off. I'd certainly not pay Bass much more, though maybe some team is silly enough to (ala Baby).

Denver's a nice young team -- not saying he'd want to go there, but whose to say he doesn't. They have lots of minutes available at the 4.

Third team. 

Let's say its Miami.  Ray goes to Miami for Chalmers.  Chalmers and Bass go to Atlanta, along with some draft picks, and Smith comes back to Boston.

Josh Smith

Bass 7 mil s&t
Bradley 1.6 mil
Sasha 2.7 mil s&t
JJJ or future 1st (their choice)


Proposed Johnson to nets trade

Morrow,farmar,petro,Williams or stevenson s&t AND a 2013 1st

Those plus Bass,Bradley , JJJ or 1st is good for rebuildibg the hawks, keeping teague and horford.

[dreamgreen]

Well I prefer Josh Smith too.

Another team could be Utah, they have a lot of bigs that are due new contracts. Millsap?

I'd hate to trade Bass for a guard (they seem so much easier to get) when are biggest weakness is rebounding.

Be shocked if we decided to move Bradley. I think a combination of Bass, (Maybe Pietrus if they lose Johnson), Jajuan Johnson, Maybe Krstic, and some future picks and cash would be what we offer.

I think the only way we for sure get Smith is if he specifically says he wants to come to Boston.
