JR Smith is on the block

[old rem]

I'd like to keep JR personally, but if we get an offer that clearly makes us better you obviously accept...

so unless one of the following (or another trade that clearly benefits us) is offered, I'd rather keep JR....

JR and a 2nd for Pryzbilla and Rudy
JR and a first for Thabeet and Henry
JR and a first for Thompson (or Landry) and Garcia
Kenyon, JR and a pick for Monta and Biedrins
maybe JR for Perkins
JR for some package involving Gortat

if we trade JR straight up for a big man, then we'd probably have to trade Kenyon for a scoring guard off the bench (like BG, Monta or Rip who'd start)

Of those the first may have some chance. Most of the others are DOA though perhaps the Memphis deal has a chance. The GSW deal or K Perkins..... ....especially hopeless.

His value's **** low right now, but if this is some sort of request from Melo (maybe he got tired of him chucking 3's lol), I'm fine if we get back at least a half decent return.

I would have said, until AA this year, I bet Melo was tired of Karl starting crap SG's who couldn't shoot. When Melo and JR were starting together, they were playing great. Wish that could have continued.

J.R Smith for the rights of Xavier Henry + filler seems good to me.

Cheap Memphis says thanks but not thanks

As cheap as they are, they may say thanks if they can get rid of a long term contract and sale it to the fans.

Semih Erden, Glen Davis, Avery Bradley, Oliver Lafayette, Tony Gaffney for J.R. Smith?

"JR Smith is on the block"

Is that the cell block? I hear he is choking non NBA players for guarding him now. Whoever that player was we should sign him, he can play some defense and get in players heads even when the games mean nothing.

Semih Erden, Glen Davis, Avery Bradley, Oliver Lafayette, Tony Gaffney for J.R. Smith?

I always loved the last players in the rotation/unsigned players "Packing all our trash" trade proposals. Too bad that Glen Davis is semi-serviceable.

[almost famous]

I'll take Glen Davis and run. NO TRADE BACKS!!!

Trading JR is a MUST.

Denver should wait until the Feb. Trade deadline.

JR might be playing well leading up to the Feb Trade deadline,
and that may increase his value so that Denver gets better value
in return.

Denver will not re-sign Smith so the HAVE to trade him.

Depends on what they get back, but Denver may be better off just letting JR expire.

Trading Jr right now is just an awful idea. His value is terribly low and we would never get anyone as valuable in return. The man is a game-changer, simple as that. Sure, he makes a ****-ton of bonehead plays and will never shy away from a wild three, but we rarely lose a game because of it. He wins far more games for us than he loses, IMO. Hell, Utah sweeps us in the first round last year if Jr doesn't go off in the 4th quarter of Game 1. He is a legitimate threat from anywhere on the court and can drop 40 any given night. There's no way in hell we'll ever get back a player that can have that kind of an impact in return for Jr.

I agree. Regardless of when u trade JR, his value has depleted, so u won't get much in return for his services despite his scoring ability. IMO the Denver Nuggets have the ball in their court, but if they trade Melo, which may best, don't wanna LBJ/CB4 situation. So if he's moved, that's where u will get the bulk of ur trade value. I feel though that if that happens, that will be 1 of many moves u guys will make. After Melo, I could see Smith, Martin, Birdman, and even Billups moving. Hey, its possible. For EXAMPLE ONLY: This could be some moves they would look into:

Trade 1:
Denver gets:
Troy Murphy
Terrence Williams
Derrick Favors
2 1st rd picks

N J gets:
Carmelo Anthony
Chris Anderson

Trade 2:
Denver gets:
Jamal Crawford
Mike Bibby
Zaza Pachulia
Marvin Williams

ATL gets:
Chauncey Billups
Kenyon Martin
Renaldo Balkman

Trade 3:
Denver gets:
Anthony Parker
2 2nd rd picks

Cle gets:
JR Smith

Young players, draft picks, expiring deals, salary cap relief. All u can ask for. Just a though. Grizz fan, signing out.

I think Bibby would be pretty unhappy in Denver if Anthony left.

[The Rebel]

Why the hell would Denver want Bibby? Doesn't make sense to trade a bunch of good contracts on the better players and take back 2 bad contracts.
