Quick Hit: Buy Low - Michael Redd - Cause there ain't much left to get!

Man I rarely issue a Buy Low for a guy who's going through injury struggles so severely like Redd. But we're at that point in the season where much of the mean reversion has begun and players are in a groove. Let's take a look at the players we've called out and where they're at...

Stephen Jackson - no longer able to buy low
LaMarcus Aldridge - no longer able to buy low
Caron Butler - door is closing fast
Derrick Rose - door is closing fast
Amar'e Stoudemire - door is just about shut
Antawn Jamison - man that door closed fast
Eric Gordon - no longer a buy low
John Salmons - Still a buy low

Did I miss any? As you can see, the opportunities are slimming down quickly. No need to worry, I still have a few tricks up my sleeve.

BUY LOW - MICHAEL REDD - G - MILWAUKEE BUCKS
Prior to the 2008 season, Michael Redd was fantasy gold. He definitely fell into Tier 3, as he was a scoring machine that chipped in plentiful three's. The type of guy you could usually get cheap because he tended to be underrated. Then the injury bug came a knocking and Redd has been a mere shell of his former self, barely being able to stay on the court. After missing significant time early in the season, Redd came back for two games only to hit the IR again on relapse.

Well, as of tonight, Michael Redd is back. His performance was sub par at best and you KNOW his owners are just ready to dump him away. Thus, it's time for the Thief to swoop in. It's all about WHAT we give up to get him that's going to make this trade worthwhile here folks. But before we get too far, let's look at the numbers:

MICHAEL REDD
CAT 2009 Career
PTS 9.8 20.4
REB 2.8 4.1
AST 2.4 2.3
3's 1.0 1.8
STL 1.6 1.0
BLK 0.0 0.0
TO 1.0 1.6
FG% 30.2 45.1
FT% 63.2 84.1

My Lord look at those abysmal numbers. Imagine if you were starting this guy night after night (while healthy) watching him do that to you. You'd be ready to bail. Time to make our move. I'm literally looking for the lowest player on my roster to make this offer. This is worth a Hawes or Watson or Dahntay Jones or Martell Webster type of trade. Redd has looked ugly and has been hurting, we want compensation for taking him on. Once you land the deal, place Mr. Redd right on your bench and trust me, you'll know when it's time to put him in. The payoff could be HUGE here, but let's be sure to limit the downside.

I know, I violated one of the three rules. Here they are:
1> Is he on a new team? NO
2> Is he getting too old? NO, he just turned 30, not that old
3> Was there an injury? YUP, so we gotta play our cards right

Alright ballas, good luck, let me know if you land him in a sweetheart deal.
