I don't understand the point of the OKC trade.

I don't understand the point of any of these trades.

when you are bored (and your team sucks):

1. Poor people have sex
2. Fans make ridiculous fantasy trades (especially when you are bored and 1. does not apply)

Yeah, Collison, Perkins, and Bargnani are all expiring this year.

yeah ... maybe we get reggie in the same trade to even it up.

Like good coaching, it is imperative to have a vet on the bench to help the young players understand what it is they are doing incorrectly. Like when Kidd and Sheed were on the bench two seasons ago. Or Kidd the coach his first year with the Nets. Without Garnett or Pierce, it would have been a train wreck in Kidd's first year.

I am not saying OKC would do the trade; I am simply highlighting the TYPE of trades that may prove to be valuable for years to come.

Veteran's leadership is a vital tool for young coaches and young players.

Sure, that all makes total sense and is a great point. What's beside the point is suggesting a trade that isnt in the realm of reality to illustrate what you wrote above.

Has that trade been proposed and rejected? Nothing is impossible in this world.

Yes, that's what we need: Veteran Leadership. Of course, we're already the 11th oldest team in the league this season, 7th oldest last season, so maybe the issue isn't that we don't have enough veterans but that we suck.

Veterans do not mean Veteran Leaders.

We don't have any Veteran Leaders and that is a huge problem.

Maybe Jose can be that eventually ...

then I propose that we trade JR for Jimmy Butler.

Fisher can use a guy like Jimmy Butler because he can help the team and help Fisher.

Ahahaahahahahh. Rotfl

Jose's 35 years old, there is no more "eventually" for him. And I'd love to hear what makes Collison and Perkins veteran leaders.

Jose may be that this year ... not sure that he is the guy.

Collison leads by example. Perfect veteran. Not sure how vocal he is.
