Jeff Taylor vus PJ ? Who should stay and who should go? 

Post#1 » by BobsBuddy » Tue Dec 16, 2014 2:44 pm

:o :-? These guys both have had their legal problems,but both are good bench players.
Jeff Taylor..6'7" 225 6 ppg 2 rpg .321% from 3 ....Games played 103 Drafted 31
PJ Hairston..6'6" 230 5.5ppg 1.5rpg .321% from 3....Games played 14 Drafted 27

I Beelieve Hairston may have more appeal as a trade throw in rather than Taylor...JT is better defensive player than PJ and is a pure NBA 2/3 swingman. Also JT has 104 games NBA experience.

Lance/PJ to Denver for Afflalo/Nurkic works..Helps our outside shooting and gives us another 280 7 foot big.

JT is older and PJ hasn't had any significant major injuries yet. There's no reason to move PJ at all while JT is lucky to still be in the league.

I like the deal and it would be worth pitching but I dont think Denver does it.

While Nurkic has been a foul machine and thus far underwhelming, I'm not sure denver would be willing to give up on him so soon with him being only 20 years old and selected right outside of the lottery just a few months ago.

Even Lance for Afflalo and filler strait up is likely wishful thinking. Afflalo just had 31 pts on 12/20 shooting last night.

Denver might prefer to just stand pat.

PJ probably has more value than Taylor. And neither has alot...Neither should be off limits though in terms of trade discussions. Nobody on this roster, Kemba and Jefferson included should be off limits

We should've dumped JT as soon as he got suspended.

Not really a fan of either one of them.

<UNCNYC> Why would we trade an all time college great that should be starting for this team alongside Adrein Payne instead of that waste of human space we call Jeffery Taylor? </UNCNYC>

To be fair, Hairston is like four years younger than Taylor and I'd be pretty disappointed if we moved him.

UNCNYC - "We have a future finals MVP on this roster. All we need is Ed Cota and Makhtar N'Diaye and we can make a deep playoff run"

I like JT, but I don't really have high hopes that he will be a contributor anymore. He was almost on the outside looking in before his injury. Now he's going to have to deal with a body that might not work as well as it used to. For him to really work out he's going to have to really dedicate himself to being a 3&D guy and own that role. Part of the issue last year is that he tried to move beyond that and it wasn't working IMHO.
My picks:
2020 Draft (3rd pick) - Tyrese Haliburton, Devin Vassell, or Onyeka Okongwu
2021 Draft (11th pick) - Moses Moody

Shoulda waived Jeff, re-signed CDR, and kept the Shabazz pick.. but if I had to choose I would choose Jeff Taylor based off of the fact that he's not a chucker

I'm leaning towards PJ staying with us.

The only way I would take keep JT over Hairston is if he still has the same hops and athleticism he did pre-injury, which I'm doubtful is the case. I mean he was ferocious when it came to attacking the basket and pretty good at finishing.

He gets into it with Derozan at the 1:44 mark

If he can look anything like this, I'd keep him.

If not, I have total confidence that PJ will be a great player in a similar role

Lmao, I am more with keeping PJ because I think he has more potential, but I am a fan of Taylors. I think he is a pretty good defender and a decent 3 point treat. I would rather keep him than Hendo. I think taylor gives us insurance on 3 positions

:nod: :o Fats maybe right about keeping both PJ and JT and trading Hendo and Lance.
6539372 works with Denver...Lance,Hendo for Afflalo and Chandler....
6539376 works with Chicago...Lance...Hendo Maxciel for Butler,Gibson,Mirotic
6539387 works with Miami......""""":"""""""":""":"""""::"""":": Deng,Chalmers,Granger
6539391 Works with Brooklyn....""""""""""""""""""""""""""""" Johnson,Jordon,Jefferson,Future First

I cannot understand why we haven't heard of a trade by now?

I can't wither, I really hope we hear something about a GOOD trade. As long as we come out even or better I am ok with a trade
