well at the moment right now i am looking at teams around the league and seeing what we could trade for, now with the clippers there are rumors with Kaman and Camby, if they struggle, i expect at least camby to be traded for at least filler contract and draft picks, since he will be a free agent next season, so that way they can get someting for him, we cant make that trade, we dont have the right contracts to fit there, and then we dont have enough for Kaman, they will want more than just Z and draft picks from us, we would have to give up to much for Kaman, that will hurt us not help us, but what i was looking at was their young athletic forward/center with the name of DeAndre Jordan who they drafted in the second round, he is a solid player and very athletic, of course he still has some things to work on, but i think he will be a solid NBA player, he is 21, 6'11  250lbs, he was compared to a guy like Dwight Howard, very tall and very athletic, of course he wont ever be howard, but he had one of the highest potential in the draft a few years ago, and his stats a few years ago was a 96 (he would be a top 15 in next years draft if he stayed in college) by the nbadraft.net and right now by the same standards the best player we could get was a 91, so jordan by that is better than anyone we could get, without moving up, in the next draft, so here is my idea,

1st round pick (maybe future second) for PF/C DeAndre Jordan

Now your thinking that is overpriced, but i dont expect us to get a better player than him late in the first round, it probably is but the fact of the matter he is only 21, younger than some players who will be drafted next year, he has some experience in the NBA, he is very athletic, and under MB, could easily learn how to be a solid defender, then we can always buy a second round pick if we had to give up everythin i said we may, also you may see them looking to move baron davis also since the top player right now next season is supposed to be a point guard, then they would more than likely have the first pick again if they trade davis, so they will have a fair amount of draft picks, so they will be able to replace jordan, so what do you guys think of my move, its small but i like it?

Would Mike Brown even play him though lol? I think if we make any trades this year it will be for someone that is ready to contribute right away, so maybe more of a veteran. From what you say it looks like he can be a decent bench player?

We already have two prospects at the PF spot and we are trying to develop them. Would you trade JJ for DeAndre? Because this would be what is necessary!

JJ would be developed at PF and Jordan at center, not PF

Do you remember that our rotation at center is pretty much ok? He is an undersized center, so he can play PF? :)

I think we should and will trade Z and then our center rotation wont be "pretty much ok" and we need a young center to develop anyway b/c we don't have one. He is not undersized at all!! He is a quarter inch shorter than kwame brown when he came out and he is 3/4 of an inch taller than Howard when he came out. He is 6'10" without shoes, which is 6'11" by the NBA and with athleticism that is ideal in the NBA.
