The Trade
LAC receives: Danilo Gallinari
DEN receives: Blake Griffin
Before I get into why each individual team does this, let me just say that this is more plausible than you may think.
The Denver Nuggets needs to consolidate their assets, and the LA Clippers need to hit the tiny reset button. If they lose again in the playoffs, then they can blow it up.
Chris Paul can go to San Antonio, DeAndre Jordan can be sent to Dallas as a cruel joke to the Mavs and NBA fans alike, and J.J. Redick can go back to Orlando and help the Magic con- I mean compete.
Or maybe that last part was all just fantasies of mine. Anyways…
