Jameer Nelson Safari

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
Here's the thing. Delly is a specialist who is playing a back up role. He's a guy you ideally use as your 5th guard in defensive matchups and a spot 3 pt shooter.

Delly isn't a guy you really want running your offense at all. The problem when Kyrie and LeBron aren't on the floor together is that it leaves you with one guy who can initiate the offense, which in turn makes you far easier to defend.

Nelson isn't a world beater, but he's a solid backup with playoff experience in big games. I'd rather add a big as well, but it's looking more like we'll get that guy as an FA anyway.
 
You want to trade what for Nelson?!

Jameer Nelson makes 0 sense for this team.

Haywood's contract has more value than this. Seems shortsighted or potentially driven by limiting Cavs' expenditures moving forward.

Alarmed that Cavaliers FO thinks Nelson is the answer to any of our problems.
Haywood's contract is being drastically overrated as an asset around here... Not to say it's only worth Jameer Nelson, but it's not as good as advertised, not to mention the massive luxury tax implications it has on the Cavs if they do trade his escalated salary for a player with an equal salary. The Hornets basically gave this contract away for free.
 
Nelson for a minimum wouldn't hurt. Nearly zero risk, decent reward.
