JJ Redick

[SpencerBusch]

I saw someone post this on the trade boards.

Wilkins for Redick swap.

It would be nice to have a outside shooter and the salarys would work out and there both expirings.

What are your thoughts?

[Devilzsidewalk]

that'd be awesome, I definitely don't want to watch a bunch of cagey veterans suck it up all year.

I'd do it -- it seems to work for both teams. ORL gets the cagey veteran, and MIN picks up a younger journeyman who has a skill-set (outside shooting) where we are deficient.

and did you see that highlight block against Deng? That was shocking and Deng should have to forfeit his contract.

[JR Rider]

Highly doubt Orlando would pull the trigger on this.

What would we think we would need to throw in to make this trade happen?
Because if its acceptable i think JJ would be a great pickup for us. Not saying he will be a starter but a good role player off the bench.

spencer, I think we have Ellington in that role.

spencer, I think we have Ellington in that role.

Ellington also has a girlfriend.

What does that have to do with anything?

I think ORL would do that deal straight up. They don't hate Redick, but he's been on the block for some time now. They get scoring from a lot of places, particularly since they added Vince Carter, so I think Wilkins defense may be more appealing. Wilkins has more experience than Redick as well, and that may help their bench.

I'd do this deal, but I don't think it would happen. Even though ORL wants to trade J.J. for the right price, I think they can do better than Wilkins.

Hey, a (friendly) Magic fan here.

I have no issue with trading Redick. But I don't think I'd do this deal. The #1 thing we need from any kind of trade is a good backup PG. Redick's expiring contract possibly paired up with our Hedo TPE or even Gortat could get us that later. .
