Turiaf has been injured this year. Last year he was tied for 5th in the league in blocked shots per game. He trailed only Dwight Howard and Chris Anderson in total blocks for the season. His avg and totals were higher than such players as Ming, Okafor, and Brook Lopez. He did this while playing 21.5 mpg. Not too shabby.
Certainly true, but he's injured for one, he's under preforming for 2, and they have other players behind that can easily replace him for three, those things reduce his value. As for Jack, anytime a guy asks for a trade, his value drops because his team is looking to move him as opposed to teams making offers trying to pull him away.
Diaw has a lot of value for us because he's our best and only real PF so it should take more to get him from us. I would cream my pants if we got Randolph from them, but I'd be happy with BWright too as he's shown he can produce when given the time. Especially on a smaller contract than Turiaf.
Jack and Wright for Diaw and Lexy works, and we'd get the better starter and the better backup, so we'd definitely win there.

I'd even throw in whatever second rounder we have this year to sweeten the pot or would take Wright instead of sending the pick. They get rid of a malcontent and his longer contract and get someone (Diaw) who fits in very nicely in their offense, and Lexy is their new huge upside kid. We add Jack's contract, but it won't bother much as we'll have tons of expirings to deal in the later part of his contract.
Let Randolph start and bring Turiaf off the bench and plug Jack in at the 2 to replace Raja.
Felton
Jack
Crash
Randolph
Chandler
Randolph in this deal would be awesome.
