So the Cavs wouldn't give up Z along with picks for Nash?
The Blazers wouldn't give an unhappy Andre Miller, Rudy Fernandez and Jerryd Bayless for Nash?

Well yeah I guess the Cavs would but I kinda meant a team that could give a reasonable package back. Even I wouldn't trade Nash for an expiring contract and a few late first round picks.

And with Portland, no. With Roy at SG the PG is only gonna have the ball in has hands so much and be so productive.

I agree there but that's why Kerr wouldn't care so much. Most people know that Sarver was the biggest advocate of the KT trade, Antoni basically said go ahead, I never liked using KT to begin with, and Kerr just went along. Of all the things Kerr has ed up I don't blame him for that.

I blame both Sarver and Kerr for the Kurt Thomas trade. Sarver should have realized how important keeping the team together was and Kerr should have convinced Sarver to pay the luxury tax another year.

At the time Kerr was a rookie GM with little influence on the team. If anyone would have been able to convince Sarver to keep KT and pay the luxury tax it woulda been Mike D'antoni, but he openly and publicly said he didn't want to use Kurt Thomas and regrets using him against the Spurs in 2007 because it made it so they tried to beat the Spurs at their own game. Kerr had little to no power on the KT situation.

Nash doesn't have to be the playmaker on those teams. With the defense focusing on stopping Roy in the paint, Nash would be wide open to shoot away.

yeah but why would they trade all that away for someone who would just be a spot up shooter getting paid a lot? Nash would be really good at that role but he would no longer be productive enough to justify trading all that.

Its not like Nash wouldn't be a playmaker. But he would have Roy around to help take care of those responsibilities. Even if Nash's assist totals go way down, its unlikely his shooting percentage will. There aren't alot of guards averaging 18 points a game on 53 percent shooting.
