This a trade that likely won't happen, but what if it did?

(Suns send unprotected 2013 1st rd pick & Orlando sends unprotected 2012 1st rd pick to New Orleans.)

PHX gets: Gordon, Ariza, Lou, *Collison or Nelson
PHX gives: Nash, Lopez, Frye, '13 first rd pick, '14 second rd pick

*Indiana gets: '14 PHX 2nd rd pick, Nelson
*Indiana gives: Collison, Lou

Orlando gets: Nash, Lopez, Frye
Orlando gives: Reddick, Anderson, Nelson, '12 first rd pick

New Orleans gets: Reddick, Anderson, unprotected ORL '12 first rd pick, unprotected PHX '13 first rd pick
New Orleans gives: Gordon, Ariza


New Orleans might not wanna give Gordon a big deal to make the team more enticing for new owner plus he has some injury issues their probably concerned about. They get 2 solid young players in Anderson & Reddick plus get TWO unprotected firsts from Orlando & Phoenix. They also dump Ariza and his overpaid contract.

Jack, Vazquez
Reddick, Belinelli
Aminu, Henry
Landry, Anderson
Okafor, Kaman


Orlando gets Nash to give it one last shot at a title before Howard leaves. Maybe getting far enough in the playoffs may even change Dwight's mind and maybe he'll stay in Orlando for another year with Nash. They also finally get a backup center for Dwight in Lopez.

Nash, Duhon
J-Rich, Wafer
Hedo,Q-Rich
Frye, Orton
Howard, Lopez

*Indiana probably won't do this but they really hate Collison right now so maybe they might. But even if they don't trade Collison, we can acquire Lou back for a '14 2nd rd pick or something.

Best possible scenario for Phoenix as they get the franchise player in Gordon who their medical staff can hopefully heal up and Collison may prove himself to be the future PG as he used to play well in the fast system in New Orleans a few years ago. They have to take on Ariza's ugly contract and give up a '13 first rd pick but something has to give. The pick probably will be late if this team pans out next season.

*Collison, Price
Gordon, Brown
Ariza. Dudley
Morris, Warrick
Gortat, Lou

*If Indiana doesn't wanna trade Collison, then they can keep him we'll take Nelson & trade a 2nd rd pick for Lou.

Gordon is not a franchise player. He is a border-line allstar at best if he manages to be on a good team.
