Trade also includes Fesenko after December 29th

https://games.espn.go.com/nba/tradeMachine?tradeId=2e89hy8

Jazz
D-Will - Watson - Price
Bell - Lee
Battier - Miles - Hayward/Evans
Millsap - Jeffries
Jefferson - Okur - Elson

Rockets
Brooks - Lowry
Martin - T-Will - Budinger
AK - T-Will - Budinger
Scola - Jordan Hill
Brad Miller - Fesenko - Yao can't even be an option anymore.

Why for Jazz: Sloan has always loved Battier. He is a good 3 point shooter which we need and he is a good man to man defender. He is getting older just like Bell but Battier and Miles can split time at the 3 and Bell and Lee can split time at the 2. This gives is more scoring options at the wing positions. Which we all have wanted. AK has been pretty good for us this year but we need more outside shooting. Okur will be back by the time we could do this trade so Fesenko becomes a bench warmer anyways for the rest of the year.
This improves our man to man defense and 3 point shooting.

Why for Rockets: The Rockets just traded for T-Will and they gave up a first round draft pick to get him. They obviously think he is apart of there future. So they probably want to get him plenty of playing time.
The Rockets have been rumored to like AK and offered McGrady for him a few years ago. The Rockets also wanted to sign Fesenko also this past summer. This gives the Rockets much needed length with Fesenko and AK and also frees up playing time for T-Willl at the wing position.

Thoughts? (Trade cannot happen until after December 29th)
 
I thought about trying to add battier but he is expiring and I am not sure the jazz should give up anything for a player they could jut sign next year. If we could get lee I might just do it. Good trade

We only have AK for 1 more year also.
 
Courtney Lee and Jeremy Evans played together at Western Kentucky. Lee was thought to be the better of the two during their time there, so in a Jazz uniform he would be like Ray Allen in his prime, right?

Phew! I thought this was going to be for KMart!

No way not from me. I don't like K-Mart. Takes shots on his own terms rather than within an offense and is bad at defense. I would rather have Richard Hamilton than K-Mart. And I don't want Hamilton. lol
 
Plus, Kmart makes Carlos Boozer and AK47 look like Iron-men. I swear the guy averages at least 70 percent of a season lost due to his various injuries. Maybe because he weighs more than most of the Jazz dancers.... Which is sad, cuz they're really skinny and hot and I want them.
 
Mid-season trades will destroy this team's chance of getting anywhere during the current year. The Jazz's offensive and defensive rotations are way to complicated and intricate for a new player to pick up and be successful w/o many practices. We are a quarter of the way through the season and Jefferson is still having issues in the Jazz System.
