PASS.

I wouldn't even want him for Maxi-Hardy. He's just not worth having anymore, his 17M contract is a cap killer for next year (which is even more of a problem with hard caps), and I don't see minutes to give him. Hardy is more valuable, vastly less expensive, and next year will be getting better rather than worse.

For anyone who thinks it's a plus to get off of Maxi's contract for BB, you just turned an 11M "problem" into a 17M problem. I'd rather have a "what-if" veteran who we aren't sure is dependable with Maxi - because it's such an area of need - 1000 times more than a what-if with BB.

Those are all valid concerns, but Bogi when healthy is a great combo guard off the bench. Further Bogi has a 17mil team option for next year so it’s a potential get out of jail free card and frees up some space. His contract number is a good one to pair with other guys to get a bigger name as well. Lots of avenues.

Of course it’s all moot, as the only package I’d be remotely interested in sending doesn’t work financially. 

One trade I saw was from Bleacher Report if all places and its Maxi+Hardy+PHI 2nd for Kelly Olynyk. That one works and is much more intriguing. I think Dan also floated that idea a month ago.
