Re: TRADE idea..
How about this trade.
Lakers get:
Kevin Garnett
Troy Hudson
Wolves get:
Andrew Bynum
Kwame Brown
Lamar Odom
#19 pick
This gives the Wolves a young prospect (Bynum), expiring contract (Brown), and a solid contributer (Odom).
The Wolves would also enter the draft with the #7 and #19 draft picks and would need a wing-player upgrade and a younger SF. They could draft Corey Brewer(SF, Florida) at #7, there is no better perimeter defender in this draft than Brewer. And then at #19 they could look at Alando Tucker, he's athletic, very experienced, and he has made some adjustments to his shooting stroke that have helped make his jumper more consistent.
Or they could prep Randy Foye to be a combo guard at the 2 spot and draft Acie Law a mature, intelligent and strong defender.
This line up wouldn't be horrible next season, and allows them to only get better in 2-3 years with their new prospects developing into starters:
Randy Foye/Marko Jaric
Ricky Davis/Rashad McCants/Alando Tucker
Juwan Howard/Trenton Hassell/Corey Brewer
Lamar Odom/Mark Madsen
Andew Bynum/Mark Blount/Kwame Brown
Bold = new acquistions
Italic = draft picks
