Joseph_Kuhr 61 Report post Posted July 5, 2013 To each their own, JJ is a 6th man. Below average defender, overrated shooter (36% from 3 last year) and doesn't create his own shot. He's not a starter, at least not on a championship team like the Clippers claim to be. There you have it. I love jj too and he's probably going to do well on the clippers. Having 2 6th man players doesn't exactly seem right to me. If I've already got one I want someone who can play some d. AA is a better starter and JJ is just adding unnecessary offense to a team that could use some more wing defense. Especially with bledsoe now gone. Not going crazy about him and saying he's a huge impact but either but, just sayin. JJ has slumped a bit unfortunately, so idk, that's just how I see it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jefferson Utah gets: Afflalo, Harkless, Nelson Golden State gets: (2) 2015 1st rd picks (each from Orlando & Utah) Why? 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I really hope Howard to the Warriors is not true. I've become a semi fan of them since their 2006-2007 team beat the Mavericks in the playoffs. Also, if Howard could make it to the finals with Lewis, Nelson and Turk draining 3's--I'd imagine he would share similar success with Curry, Thompson, Barnes and Jack. That team could be scary good, especially if they hold on to Lee. Yikes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Neighborhood Bully 266 Report post Posted July 5, 2013 Yep. Biedrens and a pick for the tpe makes sense Are you serious? Take on a $9M contract for a 1st round pick that will probably be in the 20's? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HeHateMe 697 Report post Posted July 5, 2013 Are you serious? Take on a $9M contract for a 1st round pick that will probably be in the 20's? I'm assuming Bie has an expiring contract? Or close to it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A 9 million expiring contract, yes And that pick in the 20s would be in the most talented draft since 2003. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ShefGator2 77 Report post Posted July 5, 2013 A 9 million expiring contract, yes And that pick in the 20s would be in the most talented draft since 2003. Exactly. This is the last year of his contract and the Magic have the ability to take on the salary for this season. Getting GSW's 1st round pick in the 2014 draft would be a sweet outcome.

For 2014, the Magic have their own pick and a 1st round pick from Denver.

Ibn Battuta 127 Report post Posted July 5, 2013 Our TPE is expiring, there couldn't be a more perfect scenario to use it and in the process GAIN more assets. Hell, I would do something like Biedrins+Rush for 2014/2016 firsts. I dont know if we can take Jefferson? Throw them back Davis idc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
