For some fans you will need to pay a ton and for others a sack of basketballs would do. The true question is what the team would want and for that I am not sure. Because we drafted Vonleh who can actually do what they said Zeller would do it makes CZ expendable. I am not sure Cho is willing to move him right now.

Zeller and Neal for Chandler will do it. Hell, I'll do Zeller for Quincy Miller and Darrel Arthur.

Yuck. Darrell Arthur is bad and Quincy Miller has never truly cracked an NBA rotation though I like his potential. Zeller is better, but I agree with TKoS, Chandler would certainly interest me but only if Marvin Williams was included

Arthur can actually hit a mid range jumpshot and he'd be an expiring contract. I know I'm in the minority but Zeller's rookie contract is bad value enough I'd be fine with dumping him for cap purposes.

I want a trade that allows us to make room to sign CDR.

I did too, it's too late now though unfortunately. He signed with the Clippers.

I wish CDR all of the best.

What would it cost for a rental of Afflalo?

The only players on the Nuggets I like are Faried (he's worth more than Zeller and as a longterm piece he'd be blocking our most recent high pick, Noah Vonleh) and Afflalo (he's just a deadline rental, thus worth less than the price paid, a 2nd rounder and Fournier. I'd trade Henderson + Hairston for him, which is what the Magic rejected).

I would rather trade Henderson + Neal for Afflalo, PJ + Denver wont end well lol

Sadly we had our chance at Afflalo.

I cannot believe how badly Boston wants to give us Rondo. They are willing to only charge us Henderson, Vonleh, Neal and a future first too. What a deal for a guy who is a terrible fit here and plays the same position as our second best player.

That is a bargain for a non need that will leave in a few months imo

I like Rondo I do but the guy on the trade board cannot follow why I don't want to gut the team for Rondo and Gallinari. He has us giving up Vonleh, Henderson, Hairston, Neal, Williams, 2015 1st, and 2016 2nd. So it is a classic 2 for 5 and 2 picks deal where you stock up at a position you are already loaded at. Clearly a steal and when you add in he is on a one year deal even better.

That plus many of the downright silly comments on that floppy jazz outlook thread on the gb do nothing but further illustrate that other fans are still very ignorant on our team (willfully or not)

TheKingofSting · Post #1553 » by **TheKingofSting** » Tue Sep 16, 2014 1:34 am

It is always going to be us vs the world or the rest of RGM at the least.

Who cares what they think?

We started from the bottom, now we here.

We started from the bottom an' now the whole team here.

How about some other teams prop up the rest of the league for a while?

a lot of people bashed those reviews and said they would be amazed if we missed the playoffs. I think it's safe to say we're not the laughingstock of RealGM anymore. LOLcats no more

There are reports of Taj Gibson unhappy being a reserve, so what do you guys think if we traded for him?
Maybe a Zeller+Neal trade. They get youth and scoreing, while we get our starting PF and vet? Idk if the contracts work out but I think it works for both teams

Chicago isn't letting him go.

I think we'd have to add at least one 1st to make that work. I think Bulls fans are opposed to any Taj to Charlotte deal that doesn't involve MKG or Lance, so... :lol:

I'd do that and run!
