That would be an absolute steal.

Probably true, but I can't say I'll miss any of those players much. Except maybe Crawford when he's playing well, (which hasn't been often enough.)

I'll wait and see what the real deal is. If it includes Lee instead of Ariza it isn't worth it. But as reported I can live with it.

I bet Battie's expiring contract($5.2mm) will be used at the deadline hopefully for defense

Yeah, this could be a false rumor so we should take it for what it is right now--unconfirmed.

Battie IS a good defensive player. He's known more for D than offense easily.

I still say Isiah is intent on turning Francis into Kmart and Watson. How long is our window to trade Francis again? 48 hours?

I believe so. I think we're more likely to see Battie packaged with a Taylor or Rose and rerouted though.

yeah he puts up good numbers in limited minutes and would finally gives us the shot-blocker we need and nail James to the bench but don't be surprised if he's traded at the deadline for a player with more upside.
