Anotherrrr Kings/Sixers/Knicks trade idea

Nothing new but a slight upgrade for each team. Kings - Enes > Koufos, Sixers - Vonleh > Chandler, Knicks - expirings and a first rounder

[trade idea] (http://www.espn.com/nba/tradeMachine?tradeId=ycrhktpv)

Kings - Enes, Lee

Sixers - Vonleh, Mario

Knicks - Chandler, ZBo, Koufos & 2019 1st rounder from PHI

Note: I'm a big fan of Vonleh and would like the Knicks plan to reacquire him this off season once we have some cap space

I'll high jack your thread so I don't burden the sub with another trade thread:

Kanter to Houston,

THJ, Brandon Knight, a Houston 1st and 2 Knicks 2nds to Sacramento,

Randolph to Knicks.

Trying to come up with scenarios where Houston gets Kanter because they just lost Capela. Their cap space is ziltch, but Kings can absorb if they get some picks or players in there to make it worth it.

As for your trade OP, I don't think Philly easily gives up a 1st for a half a year of Vonleh. We're definitely winning that trade by a mile.

It will depend on what PHI believe they will acquire in the draft given that this year supposedly drops off outside of the lottery.

I hear you with the Rockets trade given Harden at breaking point and Capela out 4-6 plus I'd like to see THJ moved. Not sure if SAC would want to tie themselves down for another season with the Knight contract plus the idea of us giving away multiple picks while we are in a rebuild

how does SAC take on that much salary while only giving away Randolph? Take Kanter out of the equation, send Randolph and Kustas to HOU and we take Brandon Knight, the HOU 1st and keep our picks.

We basically swap THJ for Knight, add a 1st and help the tank. We have a servicable PG next year too if we happen to get Durant. This clears salary for 2021 too.

Knight isn't serviceable anymore. Sacremento would be taking on $ because they're getting 3 picks and aren't a FA destination so THJ would be an addition to their core that lacks a 2nd option scorer behind Fox. Works out for everyone.

In your scenario Houston doesn't get anything, they don't need cap relief because they're over it regardless. Why would they trade a 1st to get out of a contract thag doesn't make much of a difference overall? They'd want to trade that for a player that can play, Randolph and Koufos would be disastrous in that offense.

If the math works I would give Timmy and accept a 2nd rounder instead of first

Good call, if this trade were to happen with Sixers 2nd rounder to Knicks then this sub would go into meltdown

I just can't see the 76ers giving up their first pick

PHI isn't trading a 1st rounder and Chandler just for Vonleh stop it. You really think Vonleh has that much value?

Keep in mind both Vonleh and Chandler are expiring. If they're heading into the playoffs possibly against the Bucks, having Vonleh would be a much better situation. As for the first, it's purely after the articles that were posted on Philly being interested in Vonleh. I would be happy with a second to get the trade through.

Also I posted earlier a trade that includes Vonleh/THJ(for Chandler/Korkmaz) for a second. If PHI see value of THJ as their 4th scorer (alternating with Redick this season and something for the future) this could be worth a look
