Let's not waste time beating around the bush: Certain NBA trade candidates just need to go.
Like, right now.
Patience is the operative word when it comes to brokering trades, especially during the offseason, when the Association's February trade deadline is more than six months away. Teams looking to offload assets aren't wont to rush into any big decisions when given such an extensive timeline.
But some players should be shipped out earlier, before the regular season even starts.
Most of the time these are players who have been married to the rumor mill in recent months. Other times, it's a matter of logistics. Player X is being loosely linked to the gossip factory and doesn't fit his team's style of play anymore.
In one particular instance, a trade candidate needs to be moved before the 2015-16 campaign, otherwise there's little to no value in moving him at all.
The important thing to remember: There must be a reason why forthcoming names shouldn't start next season on their current team.
With that we step into the speculation salt mines. Hard hats are optional but strongly recommended.
