NBA Trades I'd like to see (2)

Sasha Pavlovic FOR: Jameer Nelson



Breakdown: Over the 2006-07 season The Cavs discovered an athletic and promising swing man in Pavlovic; however, Pavlovic is a shooting guard and so is Larry Hughes who did an admirable job masquerading at the point last season. Hughes has a fat contract and moving him while his value isn't at its highest would be difficult. On the other hand, Nelson is a talented young point guard, but his lack of playmaking skills ( he averaged 4.3 assists last year, which is paultry for a starting point guard)make him a better fit on a team that has playmaking wing playmakers( Cleveland has a guy named Lebron.....ever heard of him?) Nelson could make a living knocking down jumpshots and provide additional backcourt scoring punch and natural ball- handling for the Cavs. Pavlovic could provide the Orlando Magic with the solid shooting guard they need, one who is able to knock down jumpshots and get to the rim. At this point, Pavlovic is a definite upgrade in my opinion over J.J. Redick. The Magic could then slide Keyon Dooling to the starting point guard spot ( some in Orlando feel he should be starting now). This is a trade that would work well for both teams. Cavs, Magic........lets make a deal!!!!!!!!!!!!!
