Why not deal Shandon Anderson (sign and trade) to Atlanta (his home) and our #22 for their pick, assuming they don't hit the #1, #2 or #3 lotto? This way they get a veteran "Jason Richardson" and a first rounder. We use their pick for Diop and get Joe Johnson with our #13. If we really got creative we could then trade Cato and Walt Williams and our #18 to Sacramento, New Jersey, Cleveland, Detroit or Boston to get a Griffin, Battier, Bradley or Woods/Haywood (the latter to get us through the Diop growing period). Sign the Dream, Taylor and Norris! Sorry, I posted this elsewhere before I could submit it as a new topic. ------------------ Writesmart
I hardly think we'd have to throw in Shandon...why not just trade our #22 for their #6 straight up? Makes sense to me...oh, nevermind, hold on, let me post this as a separate topic...reply to me in that one. ------------------ P.S. This is what part of the alphabet would look like if Q and R were eliminated.
I don't understand the sarcasm. Anderson is a very good player when put in the right scenario -- certainly better than Jason Richardson, a player that interests them greatly. ------------------ Writesmart
i could have sworn ive seen this somewhere else before. ------------------ the nuggets suck...i know, i know!
writesmart...you're right: Shandon IS a good player in the right situation...but not that good...all I'm saying is I doubt we could even package him and the 13th pick to move up and get Atlanta's pick. Richardson's ceiling is much higher than Anderson's--that's why Shandon was a second round pick and Richardson will go in the lottery. ------------------ P.S. This is what part of the alphabet would look like if Q and R were eliminated.
Won't work. We can't sign and trade Shandon prior to the draft. The free agent signing period doesn't begin until August. And to be more realistic take a look back at what we gave up to get Francis. ------------------
Besides that fact, I believe Atlanta has a shooting guard by the name of Jason Terry, didn't do that bad, played 38 minutes per game...almost 20ppg, doubt they really need a sg yet alone want SA... ------------------
