What the ****, why would we trade Deron Williams for a bunch of ******** from the Nets. I'm really starting to get sick of this. Why would we trade Deron Williams at all? He may be right in that this will improve the team (if that really was his opinion), after all, he's in the locker-room everyday, not you and I or the media.

Short of a miracle, the Jazz are not contending in the next 3 years. I know that, you know that, Deron knows that. Lebron James walked away from Cleveland for nothing, the franchise will now win 10 games for the next 5 years. Carmelo looks to be walking away this year for nothing, they will have a similar fate. Do you want that to be the Jazz?
 
Would I trade Deron for Stephen Curry? Maybe a HELL YES. It would give us a redo with a PG, and you think lil Stephen Curry would ever get all Diva-ish like D-will
 
The more I think about this, IMO Dwill has to be traded. He is my fav player, but I don't think there is a chance in hell he signs an extension now.

Hypothetically speaking, we would have to consider Curry plus a combination of Biedrins, Udoh, Wright and draft picks. We would need a solid PG in return and Curry's numbers are down because Monta Ellis has the ball the entire game (literally). They guy can play and he's intelligent. Plus, his dad played for us so keeping it in the family.

Offers I'd consider:
-Blake Griffin or Eric Gordon/Chris Kaman/Minnesota's unprotected 2012 pick
-Dwight Howard extended
-Collison/Granger/Hibbert
-Kevin Love, the rights to Ricky Rubio, and picks
-Kevin Durant or Russell Westbrook and picks
-Brook Lopez and picks
-Nothing the Knicks have to offer, **** them

None of those are remotely happening. 2012 will likely be kind to owners, stay the course unless the end is inevitable.

And for what it's worth, the speculation of Deron Williams leaving has been 100% national media hype outside of him saying that he signed the 3-year PO extension to keep the team from resting on their laurels. In fact, everyone but two players on the Redeem Team (funny name in retrospect) is either washed up (Redd, Kidd), was (Chandler), is getting there quick (Prince), has switched teams amid controversy (Lebron, Bosh, Boozer), publicly lobbied to be traded (Carmelo, CP3, Kobe, Kidd), or angled his free agency to bring in others and won (Wade). It sounds like restlessness is coming out of the Howard camp, but that might just be more national media BS. And then there's Deron.

I believe he wants to win, but I truly think he's cut from a different cloth than those dudes. Again, if the Jazz continue to get worse and the writing's on the wall, do something, but if they're not going to get anything close to equal value, they might as well see how far this goes.

I think the Warriors could put together a desirable package. I posted this idea in the "ridiculous trade" thread:

GS trades: Curry, Udoh, Lee, 1st rounder
Utah trades: DWill, Bell

If you do this, then trade AK for a couple of shooters, then you've got yourself a deep-*** squad.
