RJ's trade value

[SportsTicker]

"He can be moved to Utah for Andrei Kirilenko (and perhaps Paul Millsap) with one phone call. He can probably be moved to L.A. for Lamar Odom if the Lakers conclude that a 6-10 small forward isn't necessary with two 7-footers in the starting lineup. Golden State, undoubtedly in swap mode if it gets squeezed out of the postseason, would ante up Al Harrington. And Jefferson can easily be swapped for Ron Artest, but no, the Nets aren't that desperate."

http://www.nj.com/nets/ledger/index.ssf?/b...&thispage=2

Kirilenko's contract, like RJ's has three years to run, but is bigger. RJ is owed $42.4 million, AK $49.4 million. Odom's contract expires after next season. He will be paid $14.6 million. Harrington's contract is relatively cheap. He is owed $19.3 millon over the next two years. Artest has a player option for $8.45 million next season.

Kirilenko is eight months younger than RJ. Odom and Artest are eight months older. Harrington is four months older.

ak47 and milsapp for rj would be an absolute steal for the nets. that would make boone expandable and give them more leverage

 

[huevonkiller]

I don't see the Odom deal happening especially with how well he plays with Gasol. We also need a decent front court player for when Bynum gets injured (which he has a little history of missing games going back to HS), and I could see the Lakers getting better deals with that 14.6 expiring.

 

[pegs]

Kirlenko would be cool, I'd like that. And he'd love playing with Frank as coach. He'd be running the floor with Devin. I say Roddy and Kiki should try as hard as possible to make that happen.

Ak47 + Millsap or first round pick for RJ. Id hit.

 

[uptown4784]

I hate Ak47 (injury prone). Maybe Nets can work out a sign and trade with Brand, since Brand can become free agent after this season. RJ,Marcus, 2010 1 Round pick of Mavs,and Capital for Brand, and livingston?

 

[Lavalamp]

Isn't AK47 a communist?

 

[Black Republican]

**** em,i want Elton:

Injury prone? He's played ~70 games the past 3 seasons. He played in under 69 games in only 1 season (41 games).

How is that injury prone?

And then you say you want Brand and Livingston?

That's a good one.

 

[Cmoney707]

Shaun Livingston is the definition of injury prone

The only player who would interest me would be Odom because I believe he'd be a power forward in the Eastern Conference....still I think RJ is better suited for Devin's game moreso than Vince.

Well I don't like Neo-Commies much more than old time commies. Same thing with Neo-Nazis, that Dirk...

People seriously forget what Kirilenko can do when he has freedom.

Getting Millsap would be an absolute steal. I think D overvalues RJ a bit. Jazz wont give up Millsap.

Getting Brand would be great though. Solid big man, if he returns fully from the injury he'll become an absolute beast alongside a proven perimeter scorer like VC. Add in Harris' penetrations, and you may have something special.

Clips will want our 1st pick though. :/

That's what I was wondering. Millsap shouldn't be viewed as just a throw in to make some deal work. (Unless that's a way the Nets can get him, of course.

)

 

[logik15]

i think brand would be HUGE for us... i wouldn't mind giving both 1st rounders RJ krstic hassell swift, you name it, for brand. I think we desperately need a brand type player and stop getting rookies that frank won't even play. Our other players still need the playing time to develop as well. The only reason i wouldn't wanan give up a draft pick possibly is because of CDR. As much as we need someone like brand, we need a shooter that can defend. But i believe people like brand are harder to come by.

Damn, AK schooled Kenyon in that first video. I want him here, I think he needs a change of scenery.

Man, if only it was possible to get Brand and AK here... or is it?

 

[Astral]

I don't think it's possible to get both of them. Any deal with Brand will have to involve RJ for salary purposes, unless Clips fire Baylor and decide to completely rebuild. As far as I know, they blame their crappy season on injuries. So if they really think they can become a playoff team without injuries next year, they wont sell Brand for "hope".

RJ for Kirilenko is a good trade for both teams. Sloan will beat some sense into RJ and tell him to start focusing on D again. Kirilenko will have a lot more freedom in NJ, becoming the 2nd option on offense, which should energize him.

Getting Brand would be a steal. He's never had an elite perimeter player of Carter's caliber, and having Harris is like having Livingston develop faster. Then you throw in a perimeter oriented big like Krstic, and you may have something special -- if you're able to replace RJ with a SOLID perimeter defender who can shoot the 3 (Bowen type). You need at least 2 good perimeter defenders. Nets have been lacking them ever since the Finals teams of 02/03 - because Kittles left and Kidd aged.

 

[Black Republican]

I love this one;RJ,SW,MW,and 2picks for Brand and Maggette.
