Jazz need to take on a salary dump player

[mellow]

Anyone think we could snag Mills if the Spurs need to trade him?

Yes, it will probably be Dante Exum and the OKC pick for patty mills.

Booker and all the other non-guaranteed and the GS pick for Diaw.

Dennis takes a job with the Spurs when pop retires.

or multiple times within a single playoff series.

He also had games of (in the same series):

10/26 shooting from the field.
8/22 from the field
3/12 from the field


Mid-range shot chucker who is soft as charmin.

or multiple times within a single playoff series.

Also not sure that the fact he got hot for a 2 game stretch an dropped 40 twice in a row supports "getting 40 with ease" as much as it is "He got really hot one time".

Aldridge doesn't get to the FT line consistently enough to drop 40 with ease. He has to have a super human shooting night with high shot volume.

...against the Rockets.

But really, I don't know the exact cap situation with San Antonio but if they really need to dump Diaw and Mills, why don't we just take them?

And then just flip Burke for whatever asset we can possibly get.

You're better than this.

The only rumor I've heard in the last eight years where the Jazz were even showing interest in just a starter-quality player was all this Millsap garbage a few weeks ago, and I'm not sure it even counts since it really never made much sense for any side. I honestly don't believe the Jazz even try to land players anyone else really wants.

Lma has played in 91% of possible games if I calc it right.

He scored 40+ points in 2 playoff games against Houston in 13/14 and had one 40 + game in the 13/14 season and 2 40+ games in 10/11 season.

He has multiple games of 30-39 points.

Speaking of salary dump players-- huge huge probability that Patty Mills is about to get dumped in order to snag LMA.


If I'm Dennis, I'm on this.

But what about the disruption to getting a player that might actually be better than Exum and would know it? I'm genuinely asking how this is letting the cake bake.

We win FA if we get Mills for a dump or minor assets.

Mills is exactly the type of player the league undervalues... Hits a ton of threes at a high percentage. He could play alongside Exum as well.

Basically Mills is exactly what we wish Trey Burke could be. He's also dirt cheap.

Get Mills and find a new home for Burke... Cake Baked!

Hahahaha, busted.

So Mills over Burke.

But Diaw or Booker (who could be dropped for next to nothing before 07/15/15 according to Locke)?

Are we then trading Mills, or are we to risk our precious chemistry with a backup PG that can light it up? What of our lord and savior Burke?
