Trades to stay competitive in the West

[cly2tw]

After the robbery Lakers did with Mem, we really need more bigs in the mode of BenWallace and/or KT to stay competitive in the West. I'd revisit my earlier proposal with Chicago:

Marion/Banks/Skinner/Pike for BenW/TyrusT/Sefolosha/Duhon

Amare/BenW/Diaw/Tyrus would be better suited to fight the Lakers with Bynum/Gasol/Turiaf/Odom, the Spurs with TD, or Chandler/West, or Boozer/Okur.

A defensive lineup with BenW/Amare/Hill/Sefolosha/Bell would kill any offense the other teams have to offer, while still having enough scoring power in Amare/Hill.

Another trade might be, depending on Shaq's health that he can still play 25min a game,

Marion/Banks/Skinner/Pike for Shaq/Wright from Miami

Give me Mourning instead. I realize it doesn't work but he still plays with some intensity.
just sayin.
You're right about the SUNS needing to get some size to counter the Lakers,Hornets,Spurs etc.... The FO will step up & do nothing IMO.

Too bad his intensity level significantly decreased since he tore his patella tendon and quadriceps on his way to retirement.
