Would you trade for Kevin Martin?

What's the rule on having roster space? I thought teams needed to not only fit salaries under the rules, but also have enough roster spots available for the traded players. Not sure you can throw 5-6 guys to a team in exchange for 1. I guess teams have enough roster spots just opening up naturally as contracts expire at the end of the season.

As for Martin..a giant NO! We need a FA who still has a few good years left. Martin doesn't.

I think the roster thing applies in season but I think in the offseason you have until a certain date to cut the roster down. Don't think it's an issue.

Martin put up 20 per when he played this year. I think he can be productive if he can stay on the floor... Problem is he's only played 33 games this year. I don't think its a great fit, but I could talk myself into it if it happened.

Damn K Mart used to be the **** remember when he was putting up like 30 points per game?

Still can score, but dude shoulda drank more milk when he was younger.

 

[Coach Ellis]

No. The Jazz have the assets to go after younger, better players than KMart.

As for their abundant 2nd round picks. . . If they don't include them in other trades, I'd prefer to see the Jazz use most of them on a.) players who are older and slip (Draymond Green / Khris Middleton) or b. draft and stash international players. Then just keep an eye on them as they develop. 2nd round picks don't have much value anyways, so there's a chance that they could get a steal somewhere that way.

If we could sign him outright at say the mid-level then I would say go for it. He adds a nice 3pt shot, some scoring off the bench perhaps, good FT guy to have on the floor at the end of those tight games. But I would absolutely not give up any assets for him beyond 2nd rounders.
