Funny funny!
The cash is to pay Watson when they cut him. Watson is not needed here he would just be sitting on the bench in a suit with a make believe injury.
This is a PERFECT deal. I really hope it goes down. We get back the lost pick inthetrade last year to replace the mistake made in that draft.
The only otherthingwould be to somehow dump Salmons.

Some very good players have had bad to terrible rookie seasons.

I don't think many people are saying that. Saying they'd trade him for potentially a 7th pick next year is no knock on the guy's potential. It's basically an admission that our team is crowded at his position and if we could in essence get a re-do so we can grab someone at a position we need that high in next year's draft, we do it. I won't speak for everyone, but I don't think too many of us are naive enough to judge a guy based on a shortened season with no summer league, no training camp, and very few days off between games. Especially when the coach was misusing him constantly.
As the roster stands, Jimmer will likely be getting garbage minutes for two years until Brooks' contract is up. Are we really going to let a lottery pick rot on our bench like that for two years, or turn him into another lottery pick next year that can maybe fill our currently abysmal SF slot? That's where I suspect many people here are coming from. If not, I'm with you.

Just fair warning, if this trade happens don't expect the pick to be anywhere near 7. If the pick is anywhere close the Dubs will simply tank it back. Best case scenario is probably 14+. If the Dubs aren't a lock for the playoffs, they will no doubt tank to get the pick back. Still, #15 for Jimmer would be a good trade for you right now.

thank the Maloofs for this; if Petrie was left to make the decision we possibly could already have our SF of the future in Leonard
At this point the best Fredette can do to help this team is a long distance shooter play him at 2; run off screens or camp out behind the 3 pt. line.
problem with this is his release is so slow; a player can't fix everything in their game in one off season; it takes several what he should've been doing this off season is making his release quicker.
the Maloofs took JJ Redick with the 10th pick........WoW!!!!!
