A lot of people outside this message board actually think Al Jefferson is one of our best players and the reason we have the record we have. Maybe it's because go-to scorers get more credit than players who defend, rebound and do intangible things that Al doesn't do much of. However, Al is still the most polished scorer we have, and it isn't really that close unfortunately. Millsap normally gets shut down by people who are longer or as athletic as he is. After Al, the most reliable go-to scorers on the team this year have been Foye and Hayward, and that isn't saying a whole lot.
I think KOC would be happy to trade Al. The challenge is that KOC thinks we still need him.
