    I was looking at their roster and they have 4 fucking point guards! WTF?!?!

    Thomas (15.8 PER), Brooks (13.5 PER), Evans (17.5 PER), Fredette (18.4 PER). It's pretty obvious they want to keep Evans and Fredette; but we have no business trying to go after Brooks. I think Thomas is a very real possibility.

    I just don't know what they would want for Thomas. Anyone got any ideas?

    Out of those 4 Thomas is the one they want to keep from what I hear at least.

    And really only Thomas and Books play PG for them. The other two can but they are mostly swing players.

    Well I'm not a fan of Brooks. I think he would be a distraction and isn't a very "team oriented" player. If that is truly the case, then I don't want any part of the other players. Well I mean players they would be willing to give up.

    EDIT: Wait, maybe the other players like Fredette and Evans playing swing because they have no other option?

    I like Jimmer as a gunner off the bench @ SG.

    I would not hate getting Brooks. I think he is at the point in his career where he would come off the bench and be fine. He seems to have matured since playing in China.

    Ideally I would prefer a bigger pG to back up Lillard, but AB would give us offense in the second unit.

    big question is what do we give Sacramneto for anyone, and why do they say yes.

    You know the Jazz will end up with the Jimmer. They have lots of assets to trade and a fan base that will love him. (Until they hate him, which won't be too long after)

    How isn't Brooks a "team player"?

    I don't know...maybe they'd want Leonard to replace Cousins, and give us Outlaw for Babbitt.

    Maybe we could also work that in with Casspi wanting out of Cleveland. Send Cousins to Cleveland, Casspi and Leonard back to Sacto, Babbitt and Smith to Cleveland, and Varejao and Outlaw to Portland. Anyone want to "trade machine" that out?

    Well, a lot of those guys are Euros. Looks more like a European national team, outside of France's team.
