PHX receives: Marc Gasol (C) - GRIZ - $4,000,000 (2013) Josh Smith (PF/SF) - HAWKS - $9,100,000 (2013)^resign #1^
Minnesota receives: Brandon Roy (SG/SF) - TRAILBLAZERS - $11,300,000 (2013) Trevor Ariza (SF/SG) - HORNETS - 3,500,000(2013) Al Thornton (SF/PF) - WIZ - $4,500,000 (2013)
I accept.
It was very hard parting with the younger Gasol. I break down the trade as Roy being a slight upgrade over Smith and Ariza being a bit of a downgrade from Gasol. However, I get added quality depth in Thornton who still is young with upside. I also add more 3-point firepower to my lineup with Roy and Ariza, which, was in short supply sort of. It also will allow me to draft the player I would prefer to pick by freeing up some playing time for that draft pick at the #5 overall spot in the rookie draft.

PHX accepts: Im starting all over again with my team. I want to build a young core around Gasol, Smith, and Love. I like Thornton but not at that price. This deal saves me money and let's me look forward to the future.
