Smitty's post is exciting news. Perhaps there is some rhyme or reason to Danny paying Zeller more than most of his starters.
Doc has a good relationship with Danny, and it figures Griffin will go to Boston if he is traded. The issue is he hasn't decided yet about an extension, which seems critical for any of the deals discussed.
A couple of caveats: 1) those future Nets picks don't figure to be as high as the #3 this year, especially the 18 pick, and 2) trading w/o extension still gives you a re-signing advantage(Bird rights?). Doubt those Nets picks are valued by other teams as much as here. The point is, you trade for a Griffin, get into contention, and make conditions attractive for an extension.
All of those deals seem palatable to me, although the prospect of both Griffin and Westbrook looks like a stretch.
