He was originally drafted 1st by the Jazz and traded in the Finals years. Probably would be reasonably priced and could give veteran savy off the bench.
Nazr Mohammed

He probably would come cheap, but he's hardly the shotblocker I think you want. Hasn't the story on him always been that he's a crappy defender and can't stay in the game for that reason? I know his per minute stats always look good but no one ever wants to put him in during crunch time or give him more than 20 minutes per game.
He's ****** but I'd swap Nazr/Najera for Memo, just to clear Memo's 2011 contract....

Is it just me or does this guy randomly get a few 20 and 20 games a year?
Seriously?
I would 7 days out of the week. That allows the Jazz to use AK's expiring for a longterm piece far more effectively.
The only problem is that I don't think Charlotte would even remotely consider it.
I'm pretty sure Charlotte would do that trade without thinking twice. 2 worthless players for an above average starting C/PF? Memo's contract turned out to be very reasonable when you see what big guys with no game were getting paid this offseason.
1. Memo's coming off an injury that turned Elton Brand into the current Elton Brand.
2. Larry Brown never liked Memo.
3. Deals that extend beyond 2011 should be viewed as especially toxic if you're thinking about dealing an expiring.
4. Memo's not above average.
5. Charlotte should be trying to dump salary, not take more on.

He's an UFA so he would not take players.

isn't nazr mohammed like 64 years old now? and what good is "clearing memo's salary" when you add back on the same amount of salary in the trade, for two guys who are less talented?
a healthy memo is much better than nazr. i realize the "healthy" part is the caveat, but so far we're hearing good things about his rehab.

Are you serious? That trade bails the Jazz out of an extremely key year of salary ('11-'12). And it would save the Jazz $2 million on the cap this year (which would be $4 million in savings and gets the Jazz that much closer to under the threshold).
and you call yourself "theNBAnerd" .... SMH
