The rumor mill is operatating at full tilt this time of year as teams get ready for the draft, evaluating talent levels and salary levels. One thing is for certain, D'Alessandro reports, Kenyon Martin is leaving Denver.</div> Source <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Richard Jefferson. Welcome to the cognitive dissonance portion of our program. "RJ's out there," one GM insists. "He's been out there for a while." Out there? As in wafting in the surf out there on the shores of San Diego? "They're quietly shopping him," a second GM said. And then there was this one, which had just the right amount of embellishment: "I've been hearing that he and Jason aren't getting on too well," another said. </div>
I think that this total bs. Jefferson is the franchise player, if anyone is getting shopped, its not RJ.
