Would you do this trade?

Hadn't really thought of a Hayward package for Granger. I don't like to think about that, but you'd have to find out what Indy wanted if they were willing. Granger's worth more than Hayward, but I don't know how you sweeten the deal to get the value right. Hayward plus Memo for Granger leaving out the picks would be pretty tempting.

You never know did you see the fans and how they reacted when he was there. It is the "JImmer effect". I can see the Jazz drafting JImmer just because of the way fans will react. I think that GM will leave rational at the door with these hometown hero types.

Granger for Hayward/Memo & no picks would be laughable...
Any package for Granger would have to include Hayward, their Hometown Hero!!

yeah, but Hayward just turned 21. Granger is like almost 28. Hayward might be the type of player who enjoys playing in Utah. Would Granger bolt as soon as his contract is up?

Yeah, Indy wouldn't do it. One of the picks would have to be involved. But our leverage would be we're not one player away from title contention, we don't have to do the deal, and they could take Memo/Hayward/12 or we'll just stay our merry course. I like Hayward a lot, but Memo/Hayward and the 12 you have to do. Let Indy get the moon for Granger somewhere else.

One of the main reasons you want Granger is because he's a great player already signed to a fantastic deal. 12/13/14 for the next 3 years.
 
I'm sure I'm in the minority opinion here, but I don't support Granger trades; he's just too damned valuable and he'd be 30 before the team had a realistic shot.

I've said it dozens of times, but Paul George is who you should have in your sites. Indy drafted him because he was BPA, not because he fulfilled a specific need (he overlaps with Granger).

If I'm Indy, then I WANT Al Jefferson to pair with Hibbert. That would be ****ing dope, IMO. If I'm Utah, then I take George, this year's first, and Posey (to make the contracts work (he's expiring)). Then, I make sure I get Biyombo to backup Favors and Millsap. I probably also look at Kanter. Having three first-rounders this year would ensure that the Jazz could package 2 in order to get their guy + fill out the depleted roster for next year.

Harris/Watson?/
Hayward/
George/CJ?/Posey
Millsap/Biyombo/Evans
Favors/Kanter?/Memo?

lots of blanks

Id much rather have a Hayward and the 12 pick. I think Hayward has crazy upside and Granger yes has a great contract but hes getting old. And I want Utah retool with younger potential players.

If we could trade Milsap and the 12th pick for Granger, Mcroberts. I'd do that!! Gives Indy a a decent rotation of bigs with Handboro, Milsap, Hibbert with a lotto pick to pick up Burc. Then let George take over.

Lets Utah take the best avble PG in the draft, with the 6th pick. Resign AK at 3 3-4yrs for 7 million. Then gives Utah the superstar there missing to pair up with Harris and Jefferson. Just think;

Harris, (Knight-I hope), Watson (maybe)
Hayward, Miles
Granger, Ak
Favors, Ak
Big Al, Mcroberts

end of the bench; Fez, Bell, Memo, Evans.

Now I would be excited to watch that team play! Solid Vets, with Solid Potential Young Players

Who is this Handboro person you speak of? Is he related to Marlboro by any chance?
