Ways to Unload Turkoglu

In order of best for the raptors (at least imo):
Option 1:
Toronto Trades: Hedo Turkoglu, Marco Belinelli
New Orleans Trades: Emeka Okafor, Marcus Thornton
Option 2:
Toronto Trades: Hedo Turkoglu, Marco Belinelli, #13 pick
New Orleans Trades: Emeka Okafor, Julian Wright, #11 pick
Option 3:
Toronto Trades: Hedo Turkoglu, #13 pick
New Orleans Trades: Emeka Okafor, #11 pick
The Turkoglu contract is actually less than the Emeka Okafor contract by more than $8 million (Turk = 44 million vs Okafor = over 52 million). In all three options, NO ends up saving money. Options 2/3 help them in getting under the luxury tax by quite a decent amount (Option 2 gives them $3 mil in savings next season alone).
The trades give Toronto a potential frontcourt rotation of Johnson/Okafor/Andrea, which has a nice balance of offense and defense.

1st Post! I love this site. I've got a slow day at work so im spending all day on the trade machine.
Toronto trades: Hedo
Lakers trade: Luke Walton, Sasha Vujacic
Why it's good for us: Less salary, Walton is a half decent replacement for what Hedo was giving us, Sasha is a good defender (him and Reggie on the floor at the same time would be be the dirtiest player tandem!), and it would be giving me another reason to hate the Lakers.
For the Lakers it's more star power and clutch shooting and solidifies their weak bench (besides Odom).
Whaddya think?Eh follow my TWITTER!
