What about this?

Nene and Seraphin for Al and Zaza
Might sound like a wash but I do beleive that Nene > Zaza and that soon Seraphin = Al
I would gamble on that and eventually swap 1st

Huh? Seraphin is no where close to Al.

Nene's contract is also massive.

So the plan here is to trade away one of our best players because one day the other guy might be as good as him.

...

Whats the upside of that?

Seraphin is the upside opposed to Al who has reached is ceiling not to mention Nene being better than Zaza and the swap of picks if WAS agrees to it...

But you realize this "ceiling" that Horford has reached is NBA Allstar and one of the best midrange shooting bigs in the NBA, right?

What exactly has Seraphin done that would say he would reach this level.

You wouldn't trade Melo for Beal because Melo has reached his ceiling. Best case scenario, Seraphin gives you what Al does now in a few years.

Would you agree that Nene
1- is better than Zaza
2- is the best C of all 4
I agree that the Seraphin vs Al comparison is a bit of a stretch but not so much when you answer both ? Above and consider the pick swap, I would roll the dice.

It just isn't a clear improvement of our team. And right now, AL has one of the best contracts based on his production.
