    I think Lee would be a servicable backup 4 for when we need some down low buckets, JJ IS better though as you said, we would have a log jam at 2-3 however.

    Not a ton to like on BKN's roster, but taking JJ could be part of a 3-way where we get a more appealing young player and/or pick from another team perhaps? Hopefully if this deal has legs it's about more than JUST JJ...

    We can trade a 2019-21 first or pick swap in 2018.

    I put this in the other thread, but doesn't Cleveland want Joe Johnson. He has a huge contract we could absorb for Cleveland or other teams, then we could move him on to a contender for picks? Or maybe Mozgov since we need a rim protector?

    Perhaps they do, but try to find a deal on trade machine that brings JJ into Cleveland without sacrificing pieces that would be crucial for any title run they might attempt in the next 3 years. There aren't many options, that what options there are are unattractive.

    You definitely have the only 3 that the Cavs would even entertain trading. The Nets would just let JJ expire rather than bringing on a contract that has 3 more years though.

    Does Varejao just suck now? He doesn't seem to get time....

    Maybe we give Brooklyn Hendo and Meyers but get RHJ along with JJ. Neil loves having players on rookie contracts.

    I like Thad, but he makes too much for the number to work along with Iso Joe.

    They are desperate to make playoffs but had been successful with jump shooting bigs.

    I believe they could split them up into two trades.

    So one trade is kaman for jj and picks.

    Second trade is Henderson, Leonard, harkless for rhj and Thad young.

    That'd be awesome. Too bad Billy King isn't GM anymore.

    I havent been down with any of the suggested trades on here because NO WAY the other teams do them (buncha homers out here)... but this fits I would pull the trigger on this trade from all POV

    Best trade Ive seen so far...kudos

    Who do you trust more? Him or Neil?

    I'll go with NO.
