If Al is out throughout playoffs, look to the future...

Trade Josh Smith for Chris Kaman, NOH 1st and the Minny unprotected pick.

We can still compete in the playoffs with a center, which will also give us financial flexibility at end of season. Start next season with

Teague, JJ, Marv, Horf plus a top 5 pick and 2 more first round picks.

You're over-valuing Josh here, big time, IMO... No way New Orleans give up two high first round picks for just Josh. The whole reason they took the Clippers deal was to get younger and give the future owner(s) more picks to rebuild with young guys.

it's basically Josh for two lottery picks which look to be in the 5-12 range. Kaman isn't serving any purpose for them beyond this season...
