4 Days and Counting
I just had to say that I am very happy the boring ass all-star game is over and the trading deadline is less than 4 days away.
Do we make a trade?
At this point I certainly hope we do not make a trade for the sake of trading.
Are there any blockbusters deals to be had out there? I dont know for sure, but I seriously doubt it.
I for one am happy with the product we have put out on the court this season. The #1 reason for my happiness is the effort they put out every night!
Sure its not perfect, but it sure is exciting!!!
Why I am happy with our current roster:
Exciting B-ball
Team Chemistry
Heart
Thuggity, thuggity, thuggity(any lifesavas fans out there?)
12 games over .500
highest scoring team in the league
only 4.5 games out of first
GO DUBS!

Trade Deadline
We'd fill out our team real nicely if we could pull off Pietrus, POB and a 1st round pick for Kurt Thomas, Johan Petro, and Delonte West.
Kurt Thomas is that strong post defender that we're desperately in need of.
Johan Petro is a big 7foot frenchman who boards and gets blocks. He's been productive in limited minutes (career 12mpg), he could be the real backup center we've always needed.
Delonte West has been a pretty decent shooter and distributor throughout his career, he's someone Nelson could trust to give Baron some rest at PG.
Baron / West
Monta / West
Jackson / Barnes
Harrington / Webber
Biedrins / Thomas / Petro
My optimistic side tells me Seattle would do this to help their future (the draft pick) and they want to make room to give more minutes to Swift, Sene, Collison, and Wilcox in the post, and Earl Watson and Luke Ridnour at the point. My optimistic side also tells me they'd want to move Kurt Thomas for the simple sake of not having to pay him his $8million at the end of the year in a losing cause.
But my pessimistic side tells me that this trade would have already been done if it were on the table.

This is the epitome
Side-ways move don't ya think? This trade won't make us contenders, sure, we'll get slightly more productive players, but, None impact the outcome of a game enough on a given night to make this trade a necessity.

If Anything
by GreenLightJerky on Feb 18, 2008 11:17 AM PST up reply actions 0 recs
Sideways? Really?
We get a real 7foot backup center that we don't have (Nelson doesn't play POB, Harrington isn't a center).
And we get a true, proven defensive minded post defender that we don't have.
All the while, all we're giving up is a disgruntled swingman that we don't have minutes for (because of Monta, SJax, and Barnes) and a player that Nelson refuses to play (POB). This trade isn't going to mess with the chemistry, keeping Pietrus on the team all while he's badmouthing the organization left and right is messing with the chemistry.
Yeah we're not getting any All-Stars in return, but Pietrus ain't an All-Star himself. At least we'll get players in return that play positions where we desperately need depth on this team.

No
Petro - ain't cuttin here buddy. To say he is a "real backup center" is quite a stretch, don't ya think? I would 100% rather have Al pestering the Yao Mings of the league, rather than this fool clogging up the middle.
The other scrubs you mention, no thanks. As it has been commented already to your post, this is simply a trade for the sake of a trade. If anything, this makes us worse.
Pray for the guy

sideways trade?
by gsw4life on Feb 19, 2008 12:15 AM PST up reply actions 0 recs
Good start...
West might be an intriguing aquisition since Nelson has stopped playing Watson since his contract has been picked up.
The only guy I say we go after without a doubt is Thomas. He would provide great depth up front. Only thing is I don't give up more than Pietrus, and a 2nd rounder and using the TPE.

I agree

actually
Its a sideway trade with practically no downside and possibly a stroke of genius on the upside tip. Wouldn't hurt, but could definitely help.

OK
Is this something Seattle would do?

In the wake of that memphis trade fiasco,
NOTHING would surprise me at this point.

ok
But i don't touch this trade if we need to include a first rounder. No way. I still believe we can get something better through the draft than Seattle's remains.
Mullin, if i believe he makes a trade before the deadline, will be a MAJOR-Out-Of-The-Blue trade that could put us over the top. I mean really, we're not contending now, and Mulson knows it. Writers have written about this plenty of times but people here on GSOM forget-That they're only looking to make a trade if the person they are receiving instantly make them contenders (remember KG) or are productive and expiring.

I misread the 1st round part of the trade...

what minutes alloated to Azu and CJ?
Our depth is non-existant right now. Our rotation is now primarily down to:
PG Baron
SG Ellis
SF Jackson, Barnes, Azubuike (sometimes)
PF Harrington, Croshere (when healthy)
C Biedrins, Webber
Baron and Monta Ellis are playing 45+ minutes per game, and that's not going to change unless we bring in some capable, veteran guards.
