Hayward for Jermaine Oneal. We get a solid veteran that can't really contribute to winning or a winning attitude but its another big we can keep in front of our inexperience worthless young uns.

Thats what I would do. Milsap and Jefferson for Dudley, Gortat and Dragic.
Another version would be Jefferson for Dudley and Dragic straight up, which I actually like better since that clears room for Kanter and Favors if you don't add a big back in (Gortat).
Boo. Hayward stAys!
Unless the Jazz also trade Millsap, there would still be four bigs. I think that's what zman was talking about.Originally Posted by NUMBERICA
Having 3-bigs that can play is not a logjam. Are you serious?
Yeah, but for how long? Getting Gortat would pretty much spell the definite end for Millsap in Utah. Kanter/Favors/Gortat would be a very nice trio for next season.
No, that's actually what I was talking about in the very post he quoted:
So either he didn't read my post, was agreeing with it in a very bizarre way, or is saying having Gortat under any circumstance at all creates a logjam.
Playing well is priority #1 and nothing outside of that is really even close. If you're hoping someone else ****s up, then you don't deserve the break.
This.
I would not having a problem dealing for Gortat if it only meant a combination of Millsap, Al and Raja.
Hayward isn't going anywhere.
So pickledX is really Ty Corbin. Welcome to the board Ty. How much money would it take for you to retire from coaching?
When one door closes, another doesn't open....instead, I find myself being locked in a room with padded walls and no windows.
I'm going with choice A, meaning he didn't *fully* read your post.
I wouldn't trade Hayward for the world.
Freakazoid = Matt Harpring. Just ask him - he won't deny it.
My Dream Draft '13: Trey 'Black Jesus' Burke & Glen Robinson III
My "back to reality" Draft '13 Dennis Schroeder aka "German General" & Giannis Adetokunbo aka "Greek Freak"
I would, primarily because if I own the world presumably I would still have Hayward.
The "world" in this case would exclude Hayward... otherwise there would be no point trading for him in the first place.
You dig?

Gortat, Favors, Kanter would be solid, but not if Hayward is included. Look how the Jazz have struggled in Hayward's absence. Gordon may play out of control at times, but he's still a heckuva player. Unless a franchise player is part of a deal, Hayward, Favors and Kanter are untouchable. Burks is a notch below, but I'd want a top-10 PG for any trade package that includes Alec.

How good is Gortat's defense? Can someone intelligently comment on it in some detail? If it's slightly above average, I wouldn't mind going with Favors/Gortat with Kanter off the bench next year, with a 4th big like Withey or whoever getting just a little time. Gortat's salary is fairly cheap too. The problem is, I feel like the Suns are in the 115 range quite often which leads me to believe MG's d is subpar.
Also, like Numb said, if we could get one of their 1sts, wow. I'm 99.9% certain it wouldn't be their own though. But maybe, just maybe we could pry their 1st from the Lakers. Or better yet, I'd rather have their 2014 1st rounder which could very well end up being a top 3 pick in a loaded draft.
