yea, part of his rehab. Sweet.

martin worries me but I would like him on this team. Just not as a cornerstone.

i say no straight away. why give up one guy, who has great potential to score down low and provide us with something that is rare in this league (a dominant, let alone compitent post scorer) as well as great character, for a guy who is mature as a 12 year old in smith, and a string bean who chucks it up all day?
sure the talent we get in return is great, but really it doesnt work well for the wolves from a personel standpoint, we would definitely take a step back.

I think a Jefferson-Martin swap is interesting. I probably don't do it, but it's interesting. Martin really is ridiculously efficient, and we've got a pretty good PF waiting if Jefferson goes. I don't think we could also get Josh Smith, and what he adds I'm not sure.

honestly, wiht his level of maturity, smith doesnt add much at all. he cant shoot the 3, but insists on doing so. he plays an immature, selfish game.
martin is a great young player, but i dont see him being more valuble to this team than al is.
the fact that al wants to be in sota says a lot about why he should be kept around.
