The NBA trade rumor mill is spinning at the deadline and with numerous proposals and failed ideas coming, here are some trades we'd love to see, as the Phoenix Suns could deal for Zach Randolph with Emeka Okafor and Alex Len, the Wolves acquire Jameer Nelson for Shabazz Muhammad and in another big move, Greg Monroe and Rodney Stuckey head to the Thunder for Kendrick Perkins and Jeremy Lamb.
These trades likely will not go down, but as proposed by SI.com, they are some trades we would love to see happen. This season at the deadline it appears that no huge deals will be going down and names like Earl Clark, Gary Neal and Steve Blake are moving as well as Roger Mason Jr, but to break up some of the fun, here is a look at those trades just for the hell of it, because why not, it's Deadline day yo.
The Phoenix Suns have long been looking to make a deal and after things with the Lakers and Pau Gasol fell through, the team looked to Randolph as a possible option, but that was rebuffed by the Memphis Grizzlies and now that could be another option. The Suns are rebuilding and likely do not want to give up Len, but imagine if they did, the team would have a huge star in the middle and with names like Goran Dragic and Eric Bledsoe developing, the team has a bright future. The team moved Marcin Gortat to the Wizards in the offseason and adding Randolph could be a nice move.
Jameer Nelson to the Timberwolves for Shabazz Muhammad would be interesting, as he has not been great this season as a rookie and the team needs some depth at point guard. Nelson has been a name that was mentioned as a trade target for the Orlando Magic, but so far there has been no movement on that. The 31-year-old guard would give some veteran leadership and the Wolves could add JJ Barea in the deal as well.
