Kenyon Martin Jr has asked the Rockets for a trade. I'd like to see him in Boston. Young, athletic, two way 3&D player.
He would be a good backup SF for BOS.
He’d be a great cheap pickup. Any rumours on what it would cost?
No I didn't see any. I imagine it would be a late first or early second round pick. Maybe two middle round 2nds.
Please say Nesmith, please say Nesmith, please say Nesmith....
Nesmith and a 2nd sounds reasonable to me.
K-Mart Jr. would be perfect.
I might be wrong, but Martin has always seemed a bit entitled to me. Why does a fringe NBA player think he can demand a trade? Why isn't he just happy for the opportunities he's getting on a lottery team and working to get more?
Also, if Jerami Grant is worth a 1st and some swaps, there's no way that Martin is worth a 1st.
One thing that CBS has made clear is the culture and chemistry of the team is of the utmost importance in any roster moves he makes. I can definitely see him trading for a player like Martin, but it'd need to be for a hungry, selfless, team-first guy.
I'd go for guys like Dort, Bazley, or Kenrich Williams from the Thunder. They drafted multiple forwards in the draft and there's only so much PT to go around. Any of those three would be solid bench depth with some upside in a stable, low-usage role.
