But I wouldn't trade down just for Bell, he's not part of any long term plan. Like I said, insist on Hayward or a future Utah first round pick. They aren't that good that that pick would turn bad overnight.
Bell will be 35 in September and posted an 8.2 PER last year. Given that his contract runs two more seasons, I think he has neutral value at best -- but more likely, he's a negative.[/quote]
I wouldn't do it just for Bell, but his value for us would be floor stretching and def and toughness. He can hit open threes, or has shown the ability too, and he's doesn't take plays off, and he doesn't take crap. IMO, for little money, and playing time requests, he'd add a lot of "stuff" we need. That's why I'd say he'd improve our team.
