So after the trades we'll end up looking like...
Harris
Sjax
Hedo
Anderson
Howard
Sorry JNO guys but i think it's time we shop nelson because his play looks like it's not on an uptrend...With Harris we get bigger, younger and faster at the PG spot and who knows maybe in this system Harris can flourish...
Sjax makes us tougher at that SG spot because i'm sorry but J-Rich isn't cutting it...If we can't get consistent scoring out of J-Rich might as well trade him for someone you know will play defense all game and can score if needed...I traded JJ for Sjax simply because trade machine wouldn't allow me to trade J-Rich as of yet so basically JJ is a placeholder for J-Rich.....
This move imo is good because it's not a pipe dream it can actually be done and while the stats may say otherwise i think that Starting 5 is better than ours currently....
Not loving the trade... don't hate it but don't love it either. Harris has been sucking too this year. Maybe a straight up swap of Jameer for Harris (or add a second round pick or Liggins/Orton).
Well i'm not in love with it either lol....i'm just proposing a trade that can actually be done somewhat easily and not some pipe dream trade that's somehow going to net us a star....Harris and Sjax makes us marginally better on paper and on the court if we gel just right we could be dangerous....
Sjax is a good defender as a starter according to my eye test and we can finally feel a bit better about facing the Joe Johnson's and Kobe's of the league....Same thing with Harris no more worring about Jameer being a liability defensively...I mean 5"9 Jameer trying to guard 6"5 Jamal Crawford? Hell in the pacers game recently i've seen him trying to guard Danny Granger...6"3 Harris gives us size we haven't had at the PG spot for years....Plus Harris is still one of the faster PG in the league and with him on the roster maybe that Speed can be contagious and cause a change in this team to one that runs and guns....
