Millsap for Bledsoe?

[NUMBERICA]

AND...Championship experience, which, Millsap may never have if he continues to demand that he starts in the NBA.

"simpleton" and "sensationalist" are correlating terms.

Scorp and cutty slutting it up. Hard.

 

[LifeOnaPlate]

Odom and Bledsoe for Millsap.

Get it done.

The best part of this trade is Corbin would get a vet back and Odom could be our starting pf. We don't want to rush our young players. And Bledsoe could sit behind Tinsley/Watson and learn a few things.

Post of the year!

I am not into this if the Jazz have to include a first-rounder. Maybe I'm nuts.

If the Clips give the Jazz their 14 first rounder then ill throw in a pick, if I was in charge.

Id goven up a pick maybe two. Milsaps done aftr the season. Trading even two mid 1st round picks for bledsoe is a steal.

Just got home from work, did any one catch Dennis Lindsay on talking sports? Curious what he had to say about the trade rumors.

I seriously want to create an account on that board and tell some of these people to go **** themselves. Idiots in that board.

I think we want Favors in the deal as well. Bledsoe Butler and a 1st for Favors Millsap and Hayward. Maybe toss em Turiaf too, isn't he expiring?

forget this trade bledsoe for a backup big nonsense. if we really want help at the 4 or 5, just sign kenyon martin.
sure we could use the help down low, but considering the sacrifice, we're better just staying put.

Millsap is only 6-8, shoots 36% from downtown, and is great at steals so he could play small forward. Also, he is a very good power forward already so we would have great options. As far as our lineup, if we were to trade bledsoe and butler for him this would be our rotation.
pg) cp3, billups, (utah could give us tinsley or we could sign one like bibby, pargo, or machado (I prefer Machado))
sg) Grant Hill, crawford, green
sf)Millsap, barnes
pf)Griffin, Odom
c)deandre,turiaf, hollins

Sorry, but if you will turn down that lineup then I don't agree with you.

This is ridiculous. Nobody in their right mind would move Bled for an expiring contract vet backup PF. Then what? Milsap plays with us through the PO's and then signs with a team with cap space. No need to salary dump our cheapest rotation player just to have another guy fighting for scrap minutes behind Blake.

Just stop with this stuff, it's making me nervous. No moves until the summer.

Overall, not too much interest on their side on a deal. They only have 2 pages on their forum and 2 replies on RealGM. We have 20 pages on this.

The dude who suggested "Bledsoe + Butler + 1st for Favors + Hayward + Millsap" should take a shotgun, go behind the shed and end it. He honestly has no chance at a successful life, if that's how his brain works.

Mutual interest according to ESPN. My gut feeling is that Clippers fans underrate Millsap, who could be really good backing up Blake and playing spot minutes at 3 or even at 4 with Blake at 5 if they go small. Throwing in a pick from UT would probably make it more appealing as well.

I can easily see them playing small ball like that if they make it to the Finals against Miami.

LOL! Look what some guy on the clippers forum said:

"I think we want Favors in the deal as well. Bledsoe Butler and a 1st for Favors Millsap and Hayward. Maybe toss em Turiaf too, isn't he expiring?"

So Favors, Millsap and Hayward for Bledsoe, Butler, Turiaf and a first (BTW will be a non lottery first) ...

 

[hhhhkau]

they can go small vs miami, but blake and sap will struggle together vs the heavy hitters in the west.
