Maybe the Jazz plan on re-signing Marshall and/or Russell after their contracts are up next year? They both have one year left on their contracts I think.
I agree with you though..Van Horn's a decent player but the trade seems mighty unbalanced in favor of the Nets. Not only have they been looking to unload Van Horn, but now they not only have the chance to do so, but they can also plug in some gaping holes in their roster with Russell and Marshall. Maybe the Jazz know something we don't? It seems they've been interested in him for a couple years now. Perhaps they think he can thrive within their system, since it's obvious he hasn't played well alongside Marbury.
