Alright, I think this might be the first of such threads that I've done, so bear with me.
It's been bloody obvious that the starting lineup needed to be changed for at least 10-12 games. The coaching staff has had plenty of time to analyze its rotation. I've already come out in support of moving AK and Bell to the bench for Hayward and CJ. I stand by that now. But, the longer these woes continue, the more drastic are the changes that I call for. For example, I can see the argument for moving Millsap to the bench. Clearly, he should still get starter minutes. Also, this team needs a shake up; get AK out of town (I've supported his staying through the season until recently).
Here is a trade scenario: (now before you shred me, realize that it is rumored that MJ will trade Wallace if he receives ONLY expiring deals. New Jersey would be interested because they are trying to clear cap space for a big free agent acquisition).
Utah trades: AK, rights to Tomic, pick(s)
Utah receives: Gerald Wallace, Anthony Morrow
New Jersey trades: Anthony Morrow, Troy Murphy
New Jersey receives: AK (expiring), Utah pick
Charlotte trades: Gerald Wallace
Charlotte receives: rights to Tomic, Troy Murphy (expiring)
