The trade deadline is fast approaching, and you know what that means! Hackneyed trade proposals concocted by fans who think that the GM of every team other than their own is a blithering idiot! It also means that I have some sweet trade ideas for Evan Fournier, because he is never going to win a chip while playing for the cursed Magic franchise.
Evan Fournier for Jonathon Simmons and the Spurs’ 1st rounder: Ever since Nando De Colo departed, the Spurs have been searching in vain for a player to put alongside Boris Diaw and Tony Parker to complete their “French Triangle of Power” concept. Evan could be that player!
Evan Fournier for Evan Turner: This one actually doesn’t make sense for either team. Forget about this one.
Evan Fournier for Stephen Curry: Who says no?
Evan Fournier and Andrew Nicholson for Gorgui Dieng and Andre Miller: Supposedly the Magic are looking for some veterans to make a playoff push, so why not acquire Andre Miller, the oldest player in the league? The Timberwolves get a talented shooting guard who presumably has sweet Euro-synergy with Ricky Rubio.
Evan Fournier for O.J. Mayo and the cotton candy machine on the 400 level at the BMO Harris Bradley Center: The Magic’s cotton candy machine broke and it’s causing some serious strife in the locker room. The season will be lost if a replacement is not found soon.
