NO HASSELL. I am sick of all theser hasselll rumors. Why would we trade one of the best perimeter defenders that is young and just keeps improving as a throw in? I dont want to see hassell leave unless we are getting a superstar in return. Imo he is untouchable. Jaric for K-Mart would be nice, but dont throw in hassell please, mchale
Unless KG agrees to play center next season, I don't see why Minny would want KMart. You don't pay KMart $10M a season to come off the bench and play backup PF to KG. If Denver does this deal, they better have a backup plan to add more depth to the frontcourt. It appears Elson is headed to San Antonio, and Reggie Evans will probably price himself out of Denver's price range. Going into the season with Camby and Nene is a risky proposition with all the injury problems these two attract. Jaric will solve Denver's need for a shooter and Hassell would be an upgrade over Buckner. This trade doesn't really help either team IMO.
