Not worried about trading Allen, you have to listen to offers but I’m not sure who you could realistically trade Allen for that would be an upgrade.
Maybe a player who requests a trade by the deadline? He does have an expiring contract and if you add Little that could be a fairly significant salaried player.
Their contacts only add up to 15 million, not sure who in that salary range we could get that would be an upgrade. You could add Okogie and other minimum guys to get it up to 20 but the same question remains, who in that price range is worth giving up Allen for?

Grayson also reminds me of Pat Burke, Sean Marks, Hedo Turkoglu and half of Taylor Griffin.
Which half?
I saw him in the shower. Trust me, it's the top half.

The only one I can find that is also possibly gettable is DeJounte Murray and Atlanta wouldn’t do that for Allen and Little(plus a minimum)

Grayson reminds me of Gordon Giricek, Casey Jacobsen and Erik Piatkowski.
What's the commonality? They were all white shooters?
Pretty sure it's a joke.
Lol, ok. I missed the context.

I don't think the Majerle como is a bad one. Raja couldn't put the ball on the floor when the defense got out on him. Majerle was more of a complete offensive player tho hitting from anywhere. Grayson really needs that stop and pop 16ft jumper. Surprised he hasn't added that so far.
I'm positive that a floater will be incoming at some point. I don't ever see him as a pull-up jumper type
He honestly needs it, because for a much as I like him, his rim finishing is pathetic.
But I could say the same for many of our players on that (Okokie
)

PJ Washington? He’s the only name I could come up with in the other thread. Not sure I’d do it, but it’s worth thinking about.

PJ is a little too high to get for just Allen and Little…would have to add a minimum player

Nick Richards would be great. He's rotation worthy and only making $5M for this season and the next two. The question is, why does Charlotte do it for Nas Little and 2nd rounders?
I really think the 3&D wing is going to be PJ Tucker.

Richards is their starting center. Doubt they're even entertaining anything with him, especially with Mark Williams being out.

Mark Williams should be returning soon, but the Hornets are notorious for poorly reporting accurate injury status.
Richards also sprained his ankle today.

He’s 5-16 so far this year, but he shot .415 and .393 the last two seasons. Seems he can still shoot the trey.

16 attempts on the year? I'm not sure how that low of volume at a ho-hum clip is added value to our roster.

PJ Tucker is washed. I'd take him if he were a waiver wire / FA pickup and we didn't have to give up any assets, but I wouldn't trade anything for him.

Ya we’re only talking buyout with PJ…not trade. And he only has 16 attempts because he’s not playing. He might be washed, but his numbers were still decent last year. We just don’t really know because he’s not playing this year.
