They can basically take a good player straight up for Szcerbiak and picks, and then take 2 overpriced scrubs for expirings.

For instance, the Clips will be paying Mobley/Tim Thomas 31m over the next two years, and I wouldn't be suprised if they could shed that with Brand.

Or the Bucks owe 38m for Gadzuric/Simmons over the next 3 years.

Cavs won't get a Grizzlies deal from the Clips for Brand. The Clips wouldn't trade him for that (they value him too much, maybe even more than he's worth), and too many other teams would weigh in to beat it.
