Trade idea: Telfair to Detroit

[Zekyl]

Just trying to think of ideas of getting a young backup PG without drafting one. I'm not huge on Telfair, but I was throwing this idea around in another thread so I thought I'd make it a topic.

Telfair for Hunter - If Hunter plans to retire, gives us a backup PG for basically nothing, saves the C's some money

Telfair for Murray - Nobody seems to want Murray around, we need a backup PG. They make about the same amount of money so its a wash. The C's don't really play Telfair from what I've heard, and we don't really play Murray. Worth a shot.

Oh man Telfair? I just threw up a little...

Really? I don't think we could pluck him for what Zek was saying but if we could, I'd go for it.

Tempting... I could see Hunter giving the go ahead since he is now part of management.
I'd have to pass though... The vision is to get a backup that can lock down other PG's (god knows Chauncey needs the help)... distribute the ball a little and not an embarras himself as a shooter.

I do like the idea of not burning a pick on a PG though... rookie PG's are scarey.

You seem to throw up a lot, Lax.

Word.

I really dont know anything about Telfair. When he first came into this league, I thought he would be pretty good. Once he came to Boston, he wasn't used at all. He made the highlights in summer league play, but that doesn't really say much.

[Timone]

He may have thrown up because he's related to Stephon Marbury. Just a hunch.

Sebastien Telfair as a Piston = trouble

Telfair's never shot 40%. I'd be more worried about how he might embarass us off the court, though.
