What can we get for CJ?

While I am not sure just what you could get for CJ in a trade, I am sure there would be a ton of interest from other teams if he was on the block. Probably more than just about anyone else on the team.

One of the most talented wing guys the jazz have ever had. Inconsistent, hell yes, but young and learning. He needs to ignore the weight room this summer and just shoot shots.
 
I think there's a slight chance at a late first round pick from someone who really needs a shooter for the stretch run. That's a longshot though as most of those teams have high cap/LT numbers and we'd have to take something back. I'd guess we could get a pick between 35-40. I'd do it. A pick's a pick and this kid's a waste of life.
 
I never thought CJ would be "Gordon Giricek 2.0", but that is exactly what he is. The Jazz got Korver for Gordon so maybe they could get something of value for CJ... If nothing else trading him would free up 20 shots a game for someone that can make a shot now and then.

CJ isnt really a "shooter" though.

And I dont think its fair to call him a "waste of life". He is a good player and has managed to be productive in the league as a 2nd round pick. I hope we pick up his contract, and sign him again. He is a cheap wing player who is capable of playing very good at times.

If he's not a shooter, what the hell is he? Sure, he's not your protypical spot-up shooter but if we're going to categorize him as one thing, it's as a shooter. A good player? Surely you jest. I hope we pick up his contract too. And then trade him mid-season for a draft pick or two. Anyone in the league is capable of playing very good at times.
 
How bad is he? Again, Locke no likey CJ:

CJ Miles went 0 for 7 in the first half. He is shooting below 35% since he scored 40 pts. His shooting percentages for the season are very close to his career numbers and they aren’t good enough. CJ is shooting 41% from the field and 32% from three point range. That is not good enough to be a rotation wing player in the NBA. This was the year with increased time that many of us thought he could take the jump to become a better shooter. Then when it didn’t happen in the early part of the year I thought it might happen when he became a starter. As a starter he is averaging 18 pts but he is shooting 43% and 30% from three, so that just means he uses a ton of inefficient possessions and that is not going to help you win. A real evaluation is going to have to be made on whether or not there is improvement in CJ’s shooting, his current level won’t cut it.
CJ ranks 118th out of 128 qualified NBA three point shooters. CJ ranks 113 of 117 in players who qualify in FG%. Only John Wall, Brandon Jennings, John Salmons and Louis Williams are worse.

Then your phrasing is quite stupid. :) Why would you be talking about the stretch run for next year? Their might not even be a next year. I would say something in regards to a female relations of yourself but i will not.

Because the title of the thread is "What can we get for C.J.?" Given the fact that the deadline has passed, any reasonable person can assume that all proposed trades in this thread would be for next year. When the hell else would they be?
