Wiz Fan - Kevin Martin trade?

WallTown02 · Post #1 » by **WallTown02** » Fri Jun 22, 2012 4:49 pm

After our trade with New Orleans, we have a crowded rotation at the 4/5 with Nene, Okafor, Seraphin, Booker and Vesely.

I'm pretty sure a rocket fan was on the Wiz board talking about a trade centered around Martin for Okafor.

What are your thoughts on that?

I'm not sure what other wiz fans think, but I'd be willing to part with Okafor and a combination of Singleton, Crawford, protected 2013 pick, to get it done.

I think most Rockets fans want Martin gone, but im not sure Okafor is what the Rockets are looking for. Maybe im wrong though. If the trade did happen, I would hope they would go for singleton and the pick, with top 5 protection. I dont think yall need Martin though, assuming you pick Beal.

Pretty much...

I think Nene would make more sense no?

I saw the thread.

Yes, don't care what you send our way, as long as it is not a bloated contract.

There is no way we would include the 3rd. I was thinking the best we could offer in such a scenario might be Okafor+C. Singleton For Martin. Martin fills a need but he the cap flexibility isn't nearly worth our chance at drafting Beal/MKG.

Okafor is a huge negative. We would need substantial benefit to take him on.

Okafor for Martin is a joke of an offer.

Agreed. Kevin Martin is still a scoring machine and some people seem to want to trade him for scraps, bad contracts, and left over pieces from other teams. Doesn't make any sense at all.

thank you. meka's contract is overpriced, especially in the new cba. also UNDERSIZED center. i'd rather get picks or backups for kevin martin

As a Bulls fan, I was wondering if you would do the following trade for Kevin Martin:

Martin for

S&T Asik at an amenable price for both parties (let's say 4/25)
Rip Hamilton (5m this year, unguaranteed for all but 1m next year)
Bulls Lotto-protected 2014 draft pick (protected for lets say 3 years)

It would give you a serviceable 2-guard in Hamilton, and a nice young defensive anchor who provides nothing on offense, but whose rebounding, shotblocking, and defensive positioning are as good as it gets at the position.

Thoughts?
