Anthony has opt in to his 28 mil last yr with bird rights to OKC. He has expressed discomfort with his situation there. I know he is a defensive liability, but could have some value at a reduced cost going forward. OKC still has PG, Singler, and RFA Grant, so a glut there. We can return 24 mil in salary, which should work in the updated trade machine, save them a few bucks (over 8 mil) and give them a back-up 3 that is better defensively by far, along with expiring, unguaranteed contracts, a short term back-up for Adams and a prospect. Not sure, this is a great idea, but gives us so much flexibility next summer when we super-max AD if we get Boogie and Rondo back.
PELS get Melo OKC gets AA, HILL, OAK, LIGGINS and DIALLO
