what would we do with bradley and smart? IMO bradley has similar upside to gordon, costs half the price, and he's 2 years younger, too. young also has plenty of upside.
smith is a possibility, but only if the young guys really make strides. his rim protection would help, but i don't think danny wants smith clogging the cap unless we're ready to make the move to contention. one possibility is that we get another star first in a separate trade, then i think a smith/green swap becomes more likely.

No way. Giving up a crapload of picks, James Young and Green for 2 players on horrible contracts?
