Boris Diaw Traded To Jazz (news, not just proposed trade)

I realize he was a rookie, but Lyles at the 5 last year was a disaster. Withey hardly played, even when Favors or Gobert was out. Now you're asking what would happen if he's not on the roster and Favs or Rudy is out?
And you still didn't answer my ?. Why does Quin have to play all the subs at once? Gobert or Favs comes out at the 7/8 min mark and is replaced Diaw.
I'm not saying Diaw is the greatest. But please suggest one of these "natural 5's" Utah can get on a reasonable 2yr deal.

They sign Durant and we give them a 2nd pick just for ***** and giggles?

I know what you meant, just giving you a hard time for the typo.

Read it again and think about the picks we own.

Edit: apparently you edited this right as I quoted.
 
Presuming Jazz are interested in Diaw (I think a pretty good chance), the question to be asking now is whether Diaw is interested in the Jazz. Reports I've seen say that SA is trying to trade him to one of his preferred teams.

Hoopshype says there are about 5 teams but makes no mention of who those teams are.
 
Let's get it done. I've started a petition on change.org. Search for it by using the term "Diaw."
 
meh. I thought we let Booker go to give more time to Lyles. If we add Diaw, then Lyles will get no more playing time than he had last year, because I just don't see Diaw being happy as the 4th big.

What do you mean, Withey hardly played. He started and logged 30 + minutes when Rudy was injured and played far better than just acceptable. I was disappointed he didn't get more minutes when Rudy came back.

I answered your question lol. I said I understand we won't be playing all the backups at once. But what happens if we trade for Diaw and either Rudy or Favors gets hurt. You can't play the healthy one all game. Which leads to Lyles and Diaw inevitably being on the court at the same time. Which would not end well. If we get Diaw it's inevitable that either Withey or Pleiss is gone. And the other one isn't likely to be in the rotation. It just doesn't make sense imo when we have so many possible small ball lineups already. We need a true 5 because the team sucked when Rudy was out. As for suggestions, Hibbert just went on a 1 year 5 million dollar deal and Pachulia for 1/2.9, it's not like they are going for a lot at the moment.
