Scola for back up point gaurd???
Personally, I love reading all the draft speculation. The more teams and players the more I get intrigued, but the truth of the matter is most rumors are just rumors and many of them are made up in blogs like these. I wanted to propose a trade that will fill a need and keep it simple one player for one player. I keep seeing the same need repeated in most of the recent diarys.
The idea is what about trading Scola's rights (we don't need him anyway) for a backup point guard. Why don't we look for a player that had the best assist to turn on his team 2.95 and was fourteenth in the league in that stat (min 50 games). He even started 30 games last year on a playoff team. He is on the trading block with a very reasonable salary.
Also, he knows how to run a team and understands the concept of team defense. Because he plays with other small guards he is on the trading block. At one point in the playoffs I even saw this 6'1 guard, defending Tashaun Prince multiple possesions down the stretch in a pivotal playoff game. He just doesn't fit with his small team, and he can be had realatively cheap, so lets steal him. Send the rights to Scola for Chris Duhon of the Chicago Bulls! I cannot find 3 better backup points in the league right now

Duhon would definitely be an improvement over Vaughn and you're right, he has a very desirable contract.
Unfortunately the Scola for Vaughn trade you propose does not work under the cap. You can check at realgm.com. I guess a sign and trade is feasible, but I don't think Scola is willing to sign for $3 millionish, which is where Duhon is at (IIRC).
