Take Rubio to force his and some team's hands, and then trade him before draft night is done for a veteran player and a high draft pick.

They may know that Thabeet's value is higher with Minny than Rubio's. So play up Thabeet enough that Minny has to throw #6 and Love in.

Suck it up Heisley, take on Baron's contract and figure it all out later. Move up for Griffin - damned the consequences...
