The issue is apparently what it will cost to make a minor acquisition such as Iggy. I have wanted Iggy for a LONG time but now I am hesitant because he would only provide 3-4 months of service and I can't comfortably guess what those months are worth.
I think an additonal aspect of the RoCo conversation is him being good friends with Towns. Looking at recent rumors Towns isn´t happy in Minnesota. Trading away one of his off court friends probably won´t improve the situation.
My personal limit for a RoCo trade would be Wright + GS 2nd + Jackson and if Minnesota is interested Dieng for Lee. Other teams probably can offer a 1st but I don´t think any contender will give up valuable rotations players.
Iggy is an interesting case because it seems like both LA teams refused to give up anything for him. They waited for a buyout that never happened. Memphis has one more week to get any value in return. Will be interesting to see if a team is desperate enough to give up assets for a 3 month rental. I really hope that the Mavs won´t be that team.
