This trade is all about control. I know I'm taking on a lot of salary to make it work, but we're basically at the end of the season and those expiring contracts help make the world go round. Frankly, I think it's worth it for the flexibility Favors offers and I'm going to have to rebuild at PG next season anyway aside from my absolute stud Tomas Satoransky (MVP). My playoff push continues! 

Go Grizz!

[Denver Nuggets]

I accept. It should be noted this trade also rectifies a problem from our prior trade wherein waived contracts submitted my way had money continuing into next year when we hadnt intended for it. 

I get cap relief and Lowry insurance, which Suns tells me I greatly need because the last two years of Lowry's contract are worthless. 

[Minnesota Timberwolves]

I approve. Seems like a lot of money to take on next year for Favors, but Grizz has certainly got it.

I enjoyed the Lowry insurance joke.

[murg]

I also approve. Brandon Knight! Haven't seen that name in a long time.

[Dallas Mavericks]
