sign-and-trade Lee for Okur?

Okur is opting out of his $9million with the Jazz

I wouldnt be surprised if Walsh targets him.. the guy can somewhat defend the middle and is lethal from the 3line... he can doubledouble and block and to me is a better center than Darko, and playing both at the same time should bolster our defense.

so, question is.. would you sign-and-trade Lee for Okur?

They might, potentially they are losing Boozer and Millsap this offseason.

exactly!!! if they lose those two, then there's a bigger gap at the 4 than in the middle.

Lee would match perfectly with Deron in the pick and roll and can easily become a fan favorite down there.

I love Lee, but I think we have a logjam at the 4 and would benefit from getting another center that can shoot from the three

Okur will likely be be more expensive than Lee. He will screw up 2010 plans. I would prefer to have the $10M or so he would cost for some other free agent in 2010. We have enough bigs now. We do not have a point guard. Whatever assets we now have we should keep available for a point guard. A sign and trade with Lee is one of those assets.

I do not believe we are getting Rubio this year. We might be better off if he signs with Minnesota. Then Flynn could well be available.

I'd pass. I dont like his game, he can shoot, but i'f im investing in a center i'd like a better athlete, someone that can get up and down and block some shots.
