I don't have anything major to deal, but I definitely have some useful pieces. I'm in a position to deal with a contender to give them some vital bench pieces (I have some good options there), or a re-building team with my 16.5+ million in expiring contracts. James Bailey has some good ratings, as does Alexander Johnson. I wouldn't mind packaging both of them along with an expiring contract for a power forward with a higher potential rating (someone to pair with my young core), plus maybe a bad contract.
On my roster, there are only two untouchables, Livingston and Mayo. But Green would take quite an insane sum considering what I gave up (and the fact that I just don't want to deal him; might as well put him as an untouchable). In Donaldson, he's someone that while I don't think I can build around, he's definitely a 17/10 center in this league, and those don't come cheap. I doubt he'll be traded because, to be honest, I'm just not looking to deal him. These 4 aren't really on the market. But, moving onto the guys who truly could be had...
I've got a glut of quality backup point guards behind Livingston, with Barbosa, Earl Watson, and the newly acquired Kenny Satterfield on my roster. Obviously I'd like to keep one, but the other two could definitely go in any deal.
Watson's positive ratings: A- handle, B defense
Barbosa's positive ratings: B- inside, B- handle, A- defense (he's probably the one I'm going to hang onto)
Satterfield's positive ratings: B handle, A defense
All of them have affordable contracts.
Then in the 2/3 area, I have a pretty valuable piece in Jarvis Hayes. He's a B+ outside shooter and a B+ defender but, most importantly, he has a 5 million dollar expiring deal.
For the power forwards, I think KVH is pretty valuable. He's got a A- rating in outside shooting, B- defender, B- rebounder. Most importantly, perhaps, he's a 6.5 million dollar expiring.
James Bailey (22 years old, B- inside shooter, A- defender, B- rebounder, B potential) and Alexander Johnson (B- insider, B defender, B+ rebounder, B potential) could be had, but won't be given away. As I said, ideally I could package one or both of them along with an expiring for a power forward with more potential.
Jason Collins and Jake Tsakalidis could be had as well (obviously).
Any offers? Not looking for too much for the majority of these guys.
