To me Nichols is a SG and can also swing SF. He's a perfect fit for what we need. isiah doesn't have to worry about filling that void IMO, cuz I think he'll develeop into the scorer we need from the perimeter and possibly even more down the line. Chandler isn't fully ready, but he also looks like a solid prospect. Nichols tho seems ready to contribute. I see no way that Isiah won't make it possible for him to be on the roster.

Again who do you guys think Jamal is, he is a sub par player with amazing talent that can't play in a team concept with a long term deal. Do you want to win or just get excited when crawford makes three game winners a year and we win 35 games.

Because we are developing solid role playing talent you have your stars, marbury, zach and eddy and now you build around those guys and make up for their weakness.....

Its real hard to part with zero defense and 40% shooting and and average of 30 wins during crawford time here, but give me a break

the point is it makes more sense to dump a player w/zero value to this team in Jefferies if you need to clear up a roster spot... Jamal is still a player who brings an ability to create off the dribble & score that other than him, only Steph can do on this team... Nichols looks good, but he's best suited as a SF/SG... Jefferies has no place on this team anymore w/our glut of talented SF's.

It's not about clearing a roster spot, its about getting rid of a very flawed player who gets the most minutes and takes the 3rd most shots.

& in your eyes is makes sense to dump Jamal so that we can add another SF to the roster instead of dumping Jefferies? come on dude, if you hate Jamal that's 1 thing, but your reasoning here is flawed... trading Jamal to upgrade in another area is fine, but you don't just dump the guy because contrary to what you & MS seem to feel about him, he does have value, which is more than i can say for Jared Jefferies.

Clearly you don't get it. There are players on our team behind JC in the depth chart that can do what he does, only better. Jeffries role has been reduced so its not like he is affecting the team as greatly as JC.

TMS: You are correct but are also fighting a losing battle. Don't even bother discussing Jamal to present company. I love MS but geez louise!
I just hope that people will like me
