I've seen that we have rumored interest in him a few weeks ago. He could be a cheaper Ryno replacement, so we can trade him and have more room for a SF. You guys thoughts??

We don't have a need for him now that we have Asik IMO

He doesn't do anything Anderson does either

I have no desire to trade Ryno, but I'd accept Blatche at around $3ish million as a Jason Smith replacement.

I'm a huge Ryno fan but it looks like either he, Gordon or Rivers has to go. Rivers nets zero. Gordon cost to send out. Ryno is the only asset that can bring in something. Blatche wouldn't be a bad option if Ryno gets shipped. My DREAM scenario would be to sign Blatche, trade Ryno for for a 1st, use 1st to trade Gordon, sign potential 1st class SF like Chandler Parsons or Gordon Haywood.

He was suspended from the Nets for being out of shape and generally not giving a frick. Monty/Demps won't look in his direction.

That and not much of a fit if they keep Anderson, Davis, Asik. Withey/Ajinca are fine as 4th/5th bigs. Save money for wing help

Nice fantasy NBA waiver pick up, but no thanks.

King said he had reached out to Paul Pierce, Shaun Livingston and Alan Anderson and expressed an interest in retaining them.

King was then asked if he had reached out to Blatche to voice any interest in bringing him back.

“No,” King said.

So if the Nets aren't interested in him, is it possible we're the only team that's called about him? Maybe you can get him for near the minimum.
