So MINNY and others covet Batum eh?

Apparently his trade value remains very high, supposedly Denver, from other rumors, likes him a lot as well. Is it time to use him?

Do you mean time to use him properly on the floor? Yes, yes it is.

"use him" in whatever way benefits the TEAM in the long term, trade him or play him is fine with me if it ultimately makes us better

Batum is in a slump right now, but it's his fault. I saw a play (Denver or Utah) where Miller was pushing the ball up the court and he passes it to Batum near the baseline, and Batum immediately passes it back to him for a TO. Take the ball to the fucking basket! He has had opportunity to attack, but his confidenc is low right now. He will get it back, but it's no ones fault but his. If Wes can do it then so can Batum. And when they post him up over a smaller player.....make the fricking basket!

I like Batum alot, but if he is the only bailt we have to bring back a very good player, then so be it. But the player has to be very good. We can always find average players.

I'd reluctantly give him up for Rubio (Ricky has had a worse season than Sergio this year). They won't give up Love. And I don't really like Beasley.

Not happening.

It looks like many of us over-estimated how good Batum could be. It's looking as if his trade value exceeds his actually value....which makes him a prime candidate to move.

if we can get devin harris.... trade batum. sf's are not hard to find
