I guess the best question would be who would you be willing to part with for him? I can imagine none of your bigs, Gordon and Fournier? Mario? I imagine not him, so it would probably have to be a first round pick, and I'm sure you'd want protection If Mario could be included maybe not. Also, is he a more natural 2 or 3?

Ohhhhh
Is it real life?

This must be the feeling when we approached Knight in Milwaukee.

If you want him then Hezonja and Gordon, or Gordon/Hezonja and a first or maybe rights to swap future firsts.
If you're just being a good Samaritan here and taking him off our hands I'd be fine with two upper rank tickets and some nachos and pop for any of your home games :lol:

He battled injuries when we got him after the trade deadline, started off hot last year, then cooled off, particularly once Bledsoe got hurt and then he had a groin injury and also had to play with a raw rookie, Goodwin or Ronnie Price at the other guard spot. One of our other offensive weapons in Warren was also out and the centers both battle injuries, so the whole team was a bit of a mess, other than Booker getting a huge opportunity and some valuable nba minutes.

After hernia surgery and healthy this year, he was moved to 6th man role, and has struggled to adjust to the new role, possibly partly due to us having ZERO other offensive weapons in the 2nd unit so he probably forces too many things up. He probably works better with a others who can handle the ball and/or share scoring duties not matter if it's first or second unit. Throw him out there with Fournier, Gordon, Ibaka and Vucevic he might look much better than he has for us, but part of his problems with of us have been due to his own freak injuries, other significant injuries to teams, or playing with no real other offensive weapons/ball handlers (now).

Magic can have him for a late first rounder if they take Tucker with him.

Throw in Zimmerman and a pick (or two, if they're crap picks), and you can keep the Mighty Elf. We'll exchange Jenkins for Watson to make the salaries work.

You need to take back a pg. That trade you offered gives us 4 point guards, Watson, Augustine, Elf and Knight.

All I'd want is a reliable SG/SF who would be happy coming off the bench in a 3 man rotation with Book and TJ. Hezonja would be great but we'd probably have to include additional value. Would you have a use for PJ Tucker as a high energy, defensive bench vet?

Maybe.

Tell me about PJ. I thought he had back surgery but Ive always kind of liked him as a player.

Mario can bomb it from deep, like Curry range type deep and run in a transition and dunk are his two biggest strengths right now.

No Picks.

Watson Meeks and Big Zim are yours.
