LAC/ATL/UTA

Clippers Get: JJ/Zaza
Clippers Give: Kaman/Mobley/Knight

Jazz Get: Kaman/Mobley/Knight
Jazz Give: Okur/Brewer/Harpring/Almond/#23

Hawks Get: Okur/Brewer/Harpring/Almond/#23
Hawks Give: JJ/Zaza

The Hawks kill 2 birds with one stone with Okur. They get a big man who can play center, and move Horford to PF if needed, and they get a deadly outside shooter. The Hawks also create more depth on their team. Brewer is very young, has good size at the 2 guard, and plays great defense. Harpring comes back to ATL where he played college ball at GT, and he is a great role player and a great guy to have in the locker room. Morris Almond is a very intriguing prospect, who has just started to breakout this year. Plus the Hawks get the #23 pick in a draft where they don't already have a pick. Here the Hawks could draft Robin Lopez, Jason Thompson, CDR, Brandon Rush, Ty Lawson, Etc.

Bibby/Law
Brewer/Harpring/Almond
JSmith/Marvin/Childress (if he's brought back)
Horford/JSmith
Okur/Horford/(Robin Lopez #23)

dumb trade,even worse lineup.You're obviously a clippers fan,because they're the only ones to get anything good,without giving up anything much.

Hate it.

1) Okur doesn't produce on the block or with rebounds. He's a big that shoots outside and is paid well. From watching David Andersen a little in Euroleague, I think he'll be a better C than Okur from day one of getting him over here.

2) Harpring is on his last leagues.

3) Almond and Brewer are both raw. While they seem to have some talent you are replacing our top player with a youth movement.

Would you guys trade JJ for #3 (Mayo) + fillers?

You know, I hadn't thought about it until now, but I think I'd rather have JJ than Rose -or- Beasley.

Hmmm.

The Hawks would never trade JJ for a draft pick. JJ is a proven player. Nobody in the draft is going to put up numbers like JJ...

That three team trade would never happen because JJ/Zaza > Okur/Brewer/Harpring/Almond

JJ and Horford are essentially untouchable. Only a top 10 talent, aka Kobe or LBJ would even be considered for either of them.
