Maybe Jackson for Cleveland's second first rounder?

[dnbman]

Assuming that Cleveland's second first rounder doesn't win the lottery, do you think there's any chance they'd trade the pick for Jackson?

Since they have Barron, I wonder if they'd be interested in reuniting the two along with whoever they get with their first pick to try to create a team that can win some games now rather than rebuild. Yeah, they'd be taking on salary and wouldn't necessarily be a playoff team, but they'll also be pretty desperate to get people to come to games.

What about something like this where we take on Jamison's contract? Obviously, that trade is a lot less appealing (almost an even swap of salaries owed), but we could pay Jamison $15M next season and be done with it rather than $19 for two more seasons with Jax.

Imagine something like Kemba Walker and one year of Jamison for Jackson?

First of all, absolutely, positively no to Kemba Walker. Never in a million years do I want to be the team to pick that bust.


Secondly, I'd do it but I don't know why Cleveland would.

Well, they had all of that talk last summer about wanting to win right away. So, I'm just wondering if they'd try to get Jackson for that pick rather than draft two rookies.

Kemba was just an example.

What about Jamison for Jackson straight up? Again, it would cost us more next year, but then we'd be through with that contract.

no way cleveland does that. jackson doesn't get them any closer to win now than jamison does. it would have to be jamison and NO pick for jackson and their 2nd for them to even consider it.

Clevland jumps all over ir with Ivering , Blatche, Mc gee , Jax makes that a solid line up with a touch of experiance , thughness , scoring . It's nothing at eight thet makes them a instant cotender.

yer haha, brush up on ur teams!

I can stand moving Jack for picks with most any team who is game for it. Rebuild mode, engaged.

But we'll probably trade him for Baron Davis, knowing our team.

If jax is traded, it needs to be for a first this year in the late twentys at minimum. Jax is a top 10 SF in league. Teams like Lakers, spurs, bulls will give up their late first rounder for him. Keeping Jax will still help us, he is a leader and our only legit scorer.
