Troy Murphy anyone? from RealGM



Don't know about this but Murphy does seem to fit the triple threat player 
(shoot, pass, rebound) bill, fundamentally sound players, that  Ainge seems to 
seek out. That is why Walta, although lovable, is an endangered species.

That is why I think Hunter is also likely to be traded. I'm sure the GMs are 
well aware of what he did in the Boston summer leagues. But he doesn't have 
the shooting touch right now that would make him a legitimate player. That is 
why I think the best trade would be a Hunter and Jones for Murphy. Hunter has 
promise but will need time to develop and you, I and Danny know that Obie hates 
players who can't shoot. Troy hasn't done much since he has come back from 
injury so his value his way down. He is a fighter and we need a real power 
forward.

<Post Help in Beantown
    Troy Murphy, one of Golden State's most improved player, is on the block. 
In his last year of his contract, teams with post help would not mind 
acquiring. He is not a large contract that can mess-up the team's chemistry. Cliff 
Robinson, acquired from Detroit for Bob Sura, has replaced Troy Murphy at 
starting Power Forward, due to an injury. Sources learned that he will be traded to 
Boston by the deadline, most likely. 
    Traded from Cleveland to Boston, Jumaine Jones has not played much this 
season. He fits in the system of 3pointers from coach Jim O'Brien,but has still 
not managed to find playing time. Meanwhile the Warriors will also send 
Calbert Cheaney, and for the Celtics, Mark Blount. Mark Blount, is on the block 
because the emergence of Chris Mihm can make him a starter, or back-up when 
LaFrentz comes back.
