Trade for Timofey Mozgov?!?

Way are your thoughts of taking a run at Mozgov?!?

He was great as a part of MDA's rotation with the Knicks and he hasn't seen any mins since he was traded to Denver. He could help out our big man rotation with Hill out for the season.

Thoughts?!?

Mozgov will help our struggling...

Perimeter D? nope
Perimeter shooting? nope
Transition D? nope

Mozgov? nope

Why? Why? Why? Every player on the trade block isnt an option for us.

I don't see a big reason to do this. Mozgov isn't the type of player to come in and really help turn things around. Besides they would probably have to give up too much to get him.

Only if it is part of a bigger deal to allow us to move Pau without getting a center back, such as my 3 team idea (posted in the trade section) that had us turning Gasol / Blake / Duhon / Ebanks into Ben Gordon and Trevor Ariza. So if we could add on a 2nd rounder for Mozgov I would be all over that deal:

Gasol / Blake / Duhon / Ebanks

for

Ben Gordon / Trevor Ariza / Timofey Mozgov

Then run with:
Nash (32) / Morris (16) / Meeks (depth)
Bryant (20) / Gordon (28) / Meeks (depth)
MWP (10) / Ariza (24) / Bryant (14)
Clark (30) / MWP (18) / Jamison (depth)
Howard (36) / Mozgov (12) / Sacre (depth)
plus Hill on IR

That is a very nice 9 man rotation that will allow our veterans to get proper rest without getting destroyed by a very week bench.

Plus we save a lot of money.

4 points and 3 rebound kind of guys his whole career. Can find those free in the D-league.

This, I forgot to mention would we include Pau as the centre piece in a possible 3 team deal to get some depth at the 3 spot and save some cap space.

And who is he going to play minutes over? This has got to be the most outragous suggestion I've seen on this board for a while, and that's saying alot. Not that Mosgov is bad.....it's just so random and irrelevant to our needs.

The only thing Mozgov is good at is providing us with entertaining and awkward interviews :lol:
