<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">How about New Jersey trading Richard Jefferson for Zach Randolph? The Nets need a low-post scorer to complement Nenad Krstic, while Portland deemed Randolph expendable with the play of LaMarcus Aldridge. The Blazers don't have a small forward worthy of playing time on the roster, because Martell Webster and Darius Miles have been busts, and Ime Udoka is a nice defensive piece, but should not be getting Bruce Bowen minutes. It seems like a good fit for both teams. --Andrew Janoff, Livingston, N.J. A man--or youngster--after my own heart. With the Bulls doing so well, I haven't had to offer my potential help. Though there are 29 other teams in need. I think that's a great possibility and really makes sense because it serves the needs of both teams. It's easy to throw out names, but it seems clear the Nets want to cash in Jefferson for some inside strength. They were in serious talks with the Bulls for Luol Deng last summer. And the Trailblazers, no matter what they say publicly, would love to dump Randolph and get something useful. The risk to the Nets is Randolph runs with a tough crowd and being so close to New York could be a disaster. But I can see the teams talking about it.</div> Source: Chicago Sports
Man I wish that RJDeng deal went through. I don't want to see RJ go, but it looks like its going to happen.
The only thing I don't like about Randolph is his attitude. The dude always seems to get in trouble, in some way. He needs to mature a little more. I'm pretty sure he can help the Nets though. I would hate to trade Jefferson, but it might be necessary.
While it is tempting to add a player of Randolph's character, he truly is a disgusting human being. Anyone who read the police file on his alleged rape trial would know. I would never want to trade a quality guy like Richard Jefferson for such a person.
