I would do it. Humphries isn't great but he would balance out the roster and even save us a little bit of money so why not give it a shot.

I'd do it

I wanted Hump in the summer and I want him now. This is a no risk trade for us. Let's get it done.

Same here. I wanted him in the Summer. He's a double double guy when given starter minutes. Yes we'd be stacked at the 4, but we're stacked at the 2 currently anyway.

If it can happen it should happen.

Can they please take Tyrus?

[Roon]

No, a thousand times no. The guy is high maintanence and does not get along with his teammates according to various reports. Plus he has a very highly publicized divorce proceeding coming up. Do we want this? Plus I think we can get much better value than Humphries for Gordon. The only way I do this is if Brooklyn throws in a 1st round pick. Yes the trade works out money wise, but let's not forget Humphries didn't have much interest at all in the free agent market and only got this big deal because he was supposed to be a throw in on a proposed Dwight Howard deal and they needed his salary to bump up the package they were offering Orlando.

And really guys? Gordon and Adrian for Humphries AND Brooks (the guy the Nets refused to surrender for Joe Johnson)? Not going to happen.

I say trade Henderson, Diop, and possibly Warrick at the deadline and get as many assets as possible. Then look to trade Sessions and Gordon in the offseason.

We're stacked at the 4... With scrubs

This is not a good idea. Not a fan of Kris especially without the K
