Raymond Felton to Lakers?

They're talking bout trading us their trade exception for him on Lakersground.net. How would you guys feel about that?

I'm against giving away a player especially to the lakers. He has sucked but we have nothing to replace him with, Crawford at the point won't work for long term. If the lakers want him I want both there first and Dallas's first they got for Odom.

Can they package a TE with a player, for another player?

I.E., Felton to the Lakers for a TE + Pick.

TE + Pick + Matthews for Nash?

NOT SAYING that is what I propose.

TE can only be used for one player. It can't be combined with another player. But you could pull a Portland by using the TE for James because Phoenix was going to sell us the first rounder.

The TE can't be packaged with a player, I think it can be packaged with a pick though.

Felton can definitely net us at the very least a draft pick. Everyone seems to forget that Felton was a near all-star last year and any team making a push for the playoffs would love to have the guy. He will be significantly better with the next team/coach.

I agree with this, I don't get why everyone just assumes he has no value because he has sucked with us. He is having the worst season of his career and anyone trading for him has to believe they can have him play near the level he did last year.

You just do it as a 3 way deal. Felton to Lakers. Matthews to PHX. 1st to PHX from LA. Nash to us.

No, the TE is it's own little "slot" in the trade and has to completely cover something coming back. You can't combine it with more to "add up" to a larger salary.

Yeah, you could do it that way, cutting out the TE completely since the TE is more restrictive.

If that's the case, I'd like it.

Portland would probably have to throw in a pick too.

He really wasn't near All Star level for New York, that was entirely hype. He did play his best, but it wasn't particularly close to All Star caliber. He was a bit above average and that Felton would have value...but his horrendous play this year has surely undercut his value a lot. I think he might net a second rounder from an optimistic team.

Man we would get real week at the PG spot real quick. Not a fan, but we are a better team with him, then without him and getting nothing in return.
