Nets After Sap?

I don't think Utah does my second trade, because trading away Al means that the Jazz will be in the lottery one year instead of a first round sweep.
 
If it's Bledsoe VS Rondo, I think Bledsoe will be a better fit.

I just don't think Ty can control Rondo.

Rondo >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Bledsoe

You're correct, Rondo would either get Ty fired or Ty would hand over the team to him ..
 
If they are willing to take on Sap and send us Mirza Teletovic that would be music to my ears just because he is bosnian and yes I do know he is just a bench player.
It's really hard for me to root for him while he is on "Deron's team"!!! :mad:
 
The Nets cannot trade thief pick in the 2013 draft because they already traded their 2012 pick and you cannot trade picks in consecutive years.

This is incorrect. That rule only applies to future draft picks. The 2012 pick does not come into play here.
 
As much as I hate the idea of Humphries I'd be ok with it for a few reasons. First, like you mentioned he expires next year. That is perfect for this team. Second, Humphries is so limited that I can't see Corbin giving him major minutes ever. Third, getting a 2014 pick in return will be worth it.

Agreed.

This trade is much closer. I think Utah will want a pick from somewhere for them to accept this. It's a huge risk for them and they would only do it if they are not planning on keeping either Millsap or Jefferson this summer. I still think the Jazz will attempt to keep one of them. Of course they could make this deal and still attempt to re-sign one in the off season.
 
I thought about picks but none of those teams have a pick worth taking, maybe Boston, but they might want to keep theirs.

I do think I had Utah keeping the GS pick in this round.

I do it if I am Utah because you now have a PG that can make Favors as good as he will ever be, and he is relatively cheap. Plus you get him for two more years.
 
Rondo is a headcase, but a pass-first PG who can drive to the hoop would be ideal for the Jazz. The guy is super talented. If he wasn't such a psycho and a poor sport, I would be all about Rondo playing for the Jazz.
 
Celtics will want Favors or Kanter and more for Rondo.
Rondo is an allstar PG.
Celts are looking to rebuild.

Agreed, I wouldn't give up Kanter or Favors for Rondo, unless we have the inside track at getting Noel in this next draft (99% chance at that not happening).

The board is all up in arms about getting a great PG, but it really isn't that necessary. We just need to find a good one.

The problem with having just a good one is you end up being nothing more than a solid playoff team because we would need at least 2 stars to be real contenders.
 
I'd take MarShon Brooks. He has good upside.
MarShon is a poor-poor-poor mans version of Monte...

I think the Nets are a good trading partner for the Jazz. They have an expensive roster comprised of players who have reached their ceiling, they're in the middle of the Eastern Conference playoff standings, and they're desperate to contend in a year where they actually could if they make one more move. Sounds like a team that might be motivated to give up a bit extra. We've taken advantage of their all-in approach in the past with both the DWill trade and the Okur trade.

If I'm KOC, I'd try to use this to make something happen with a third team.
BK has no assets other than Blatche to offer & salaries there wont match up for a potential trade unless theres a 3-way which involves Hump).
 
Like I said, the Jazz would have to take on at least Humphries.

Actually I'd do Millsap + Marv. Williams for Humphries + picks + fillers

Then we let Jefferson Walk.

So next year we start Favors & Kanter. Humphries off the bench, he can hold his own against reserves I'm sure. We get a draft pick, a decent 3rd big and get out of Marv's contract for next year.

Thats a terrible trade. Why even do it? We might as well re-sign Sap.
