What does Chris Paul trade mean to JJ Redick?

in nba •  7 years ago 

According to ESPN's Brian Windhorst - JJ Redick has no desire to re-sign with the L.A. Clippers following the Chris Paul's trade to Houston Rockets.

It is reported that the Clippers shooter is linked to Brooklyn Nets where they could form a Lin - Redick - D'Angelo Russell backcourt combo, and that should be good news for Brooklyn Nets as they were really struggled to sign any talents last years.

Even if Brooklyn Nets do not choose to sign him, there are plenty of teams could use the sharpshooter as 3 pointers are one of the key part in today's NBA game.

Good points all around. I doubt JJ comes back given the CP3 trade that went down yesterday. Too much guard play already in my opinion. 3 Point specialists aren't hard to come by nowadays since the game is moving into pace and space.

JJ to Brooklyn is a good move indeed. Him and D'lo with their young pieces could be a good start to a promising future. A team like Brooklyn would definitely love to have a 3 point specialist on their team!

Yes i felt really bad when brooklyn trade away all their draft picks to boston and now they have trouble getting any talents from the free agency market (crabbe and tyler johnson) and i hope they can get JJ such that they will be in the right path again.

JJ Redick DUKE BABY!! I'm from New Jersey and I love from the play for the Brooklyn Nets !three point shooting huge part of the game.

If you have been following duke, i am sure you would know how good JJ was in college, he now did have a decent NBA career and would be a great fit for nets where they need some strong leaderful from the vets and help nurturing dangelo russell as well.

You really know your basketball 😃Thanks!! I am just getting the hoops craze back ....since my kids are now growing up a little bit and want to play!!

Yeah have been a basketball fans since so young so yeah i really like basketball :), how old is your kid? My kid is now turning 6 but i am sad that he still doesnt have the strength to shoot the ball and have really bad handle, i am pretty sure he wont turn to lebron james :)

Other eight years old six years old in two years old. And you made me laugh out loud. There's only one LeBron James

I am sad 😂😂

Thatnwould be a great sign for the Nets! I hope he signs with the Knicks tho!!

Knicks is surprising quiet in current free agent market thus far, my guess is that they are still exploring he future direction ans the first piority may be whether they should buy out melo contract as not many team would want to trade for him. After that things should be clearer.

JJ Redick was not coming back to the Clippers regardless of what happened to Chris Paul. Doc was going to start his son Austin Rivers at SG. Much to the dismay of the team and one of the reasons Chris Paul bolted (Doc's nepotism toward his son).

Will be interesting to see what Jerry West does with the Clippers as they will be a completely different team now. Especially if Blake Griffin signs elsewhere. He meets with the Suns today. They want to sign him and Paul Milsap.

Thanks for the information. I never like doc river and i think his success in boston is because he has fews really professional players to work with. But i believe jerry west would make good decision and i think this is the challenge he is looking for. But just need sometime as all cp3, griffin and jj may just be gone this year. I wish suns could sign both but they do not have enough salary cap to work with and they cant move brandon knight. There is a report that suns will not offer millsap for 4 fours so i think millsap is going to denver. Blake griffin actually approached suns himself so i guess there is some chance suns may actually land him.

This is all great stuff.

I have never believed in having someone controlling multiple positions. Like a GM/Coach or President/GM and in Doc's case President/Coach. Too much power and too much responsibility. Those are all full time jobs.

And Doc in regards to his son...well the Clippers could have gotten Carmelo Anthony in a trade involving Austin Rivers. But Doc turned it down. Thus the Clippers lose in the first round.

The Suns I have seen keep offering up Bledsoe in various trade discussions. So not sure what they want to do at the PG. And in regards to Griffin he may be using the Sun's as leverage in order to force the Clippers to give him that 5th year...the same 5th year they DID NOT offer to Chris Paul. Will be interesting to see what happens.

This is a interestint summer isnt it, alot of great trade and great rookies. Are you going to watch the summer league as well? For the suns, i can give some perepective as why they want to move bledsoe, first until josh jackson fell into them, suns actually consider fox such that if they pick fox, bledsoe will be gone. There is also another rumor suggesting suns wants denver pick and mudiary for bledsoe, but once blazers got zach collins at 10th, the suns turned down the trade, so zach colins is their guy. Spot on on blake griffin situation, this is what i think, i just need some booze and miracle now :)

Great information. You have the Suns in your back pocket.

For the summer league I hope to watch some live. As I live in Vegas. But for the first time ALL 63 games will be broadcasted on one of the ESPN platforms.

Should be fun. I want to see Lonzo Ball play as I am a Lakers fan. 24 teams (including the Suns) are in the Vegas league this year and they are doing it tournament style with a championship game. lol. SMART...they are going to make so much money on what constitutes rookie practice. lol

Oh an who needs Blake when you can get Paul Millsap for cheaper. Is it a coincidence the Suns signed his brother Elijah that last game of the season? I certainly want to see how all this plays out.

Yeah there is one strong point that suns may get millsap but i think elijah is not in the suns roster anymore, maybe delegate back to dleague. Man you need to catch some game lives and take a few pictures, i will give you a 100% upvote. And lonzo ball is gonna be the star, you can just tell. Actually the top 5 rookies have a chance to be star. So many talents this year.

Hello there! I think JJ will want to go to a contender. Even though Brooklyn will try to pluck him up. I predict Hayward leaving Utah and JJ going there. My 2 cents.

Cheers & Blessings!

To me, i felt like hayward will leave utah but may not go to brooklyn nets but boston celtics instead. Because his old college coach is playing there. I do think jj will go to nets because he is likely to get his money there. Blessing to you too :)

Depends if he wants to win or get paid ! Not gonna get both.

Yeah nowaday, with the new salary structure, the nba only pay top money to the big star and the young guys and they will expect the vet to get minimum or everything. So in brooklyn, he could get the best money but there might not too many wins.

Hi brother, how are you? Are you so good?
