I agree with Madape--not because I like Bradley, I think he deserves to be beaten with sticks for his so-called play this year, but because Ostertag is even worse. Yes, his contract ends sooner but as Madape says Bradley is 7'6" and has a very cap-friendly contract. Given his play he's not worth much, but he's still worth more than Ostertag in trade value.

Added to that, Bradley has the capability to help this team. If Ostertag was interested in playing (not a given), he would be a marginal upgrade on Esch. If Bradley was interested in playing, he could be another major plus.

Not to mention that I still really, really want to see the line-up--

C-Bradley
PF-Esch
SF-Wang
SG-LaFrentz
PG-Dirk

They would have to run nothing but zone on D, but still . . .
