They have very good contracts. But Indy will want the entire farm if they trade PG.

Then they're delusional. For Burks, Favors and two firsts I would rather wait until the season ends and throw all the money in the world at Durant.

Who you can guarantee will say no (because half the league can do the same, and OKC can offer more [and have a better team]).
 
I think the biggest thing is the known quantities the Jazz are sending out are about the same age as PG. Why trade PG to rebuild with players the same age?

OKC has less FA money than us. The Jazz are one of the best positioned teams in free agency as we have one free agent - Booker - and almost $32,000,000.

I would do the trade but I think it is a little risky and more fair (to Indiana) than is getting credit for.
I think what we would give up is a little underrated (assuming favors is healthy)

Burks=fifty cents
Favors=75 cents
2 first rounders=fifty cents

For

Paul George=one dollar


I do the trade because like naos said, we really need a player that's a level above Hayward and even without Burks, favors, and the draft picks we still have allot of good pieces left (gobert, hayward, hood, exum, lyles).

On paper though we would be giving up a pretty good haul and if things break right (Burks and favors stay healthy and have not hit their ceiling yet, the draft picks turn out to net good players) the jazz could be better off keeping what they have and spending big on a free agent next summer.

That's allot of ifs though. I would do the trade.

I wrote a whole pgph on why the Jazz were better staying put, but with homer glasses off, I have to say do it. I don't think it makes us a contender, but it does improve. I would be most excited about him being a great 2-way player and furthering our quest for length.

we were in an excellent position this last FA period, too. Does our track record give you confidence?

You lost me. No thank you. I want no part of Boogie in a Jazz uni. Ever.
