Richard Jefferson to the Bucks?

[timvp]

Two NBA teams are telling us they hear that a trade is complete between Milwaukee and New Jersey. The Nets would send the Bucks Richard Jefferson in exchange for Yi Jianlian and Bobby Simmons. Milwaukee would fill the biggest need on their roster at the SF position, and may be free now to take the best player on their board--possibly Russell Westbrook.

Jefferson for the added advertisers Yi would bring to the Nets?

I've never seen DX break a trade so take it for what it's worth.

Damn.
I love draft day. :hungry:

Both teams will still suck with this trade.

If true then the Bucks won't take Alexander. They seemed higher on him because he can speak Mandarin.

ESPN has this on their breaking news alert.

Nets now need a SF.
They have the 10th and 21st pick.
If they don't get a SF with the 10th pick, they could draft Batum at 21st.
Batum "failed" his physical with Nets, it could also scared them from drafting him.

certainly does seem they wont need joe any more. interesting to see if Yi plays better this year. also this might mean they will draft ganillo with the 10th if he falls to them, and if not, maybe they go for joe.

Well, with that trade, they acquired Bobby Simmons as well. I don't know how they will use him, but I am assuming he will take Jefferson's place.

Yep, the most likely scenario is Nets getting their SF with the 10th pick.

ONE WORD: LEBRON

it's so obvious the Lebron will go to the Nets in 2010
