Zach Lowe: Paul George would love to play with Gordon Hayward

Not a huge Love fan but there's worse players we could get. At least offensively he'd fit in and do well in Utah

But he gets this team no closer to a championship. It's expensive window dressing IMO. I'd rather keep Favors and trade Burks, Lyles and a plethora of draft picks to rent PG13. Love might fit great between Gobert and Hayward during the regular season, but his deficiencies will be exposed against the Warriors in the playoffs. He just doesn't match up well against them, and the Jazz don't have LeBron James and Kyrie Irving. PG could play the 2/3 for Utah and alleviate some of the scoring load from Hayward. I just think those two would fit together really, really well. That's the trade Utah should be pursuing.

I absolutely agree 100% with everything you said .. nailed it

Indiana apparently has a deal on the table to send PG to Cleveland. Love would move to a third team, and Indiana would take back picks and young assets. The deal was reportedly ready to go when Cleveland sacked their GM. I'm wondering who the third team is. Houston? Minnesota? OKC? Utah?

Let's say it was us. Break down the details of this trade. What would we ship out and what would we get?
 
The main reason I want the Jazz to trade for Paul George?

Because if you start with this. . .

Few years ago Love put up monster numbers and had a great +-. He plays with two ball dominant guys. If he's featured and gets close to what he was before he will really open up our offense.

This is true. He was a badass. Hours teams record while he was putting up huge numbers on the other hand.....

Wasn't love pretty good in the finals?

I don't know what games you were watching but I saw Love torch Draymond repeatedly and grab a **** ton of rebounds.

Love was good, but I still don't think he's as important as a dynamic wing. He would fit nicely next to Hayward and Gobert, but I have my reservations on how much Gobert and Love would play together against our prime target Golden State.

Rather have Mr Triple Double coming off the best season in NBA history. Can you imagine Gobert an Favors in the pick an roll with Westbrook? They'd probably both break the single season shooting percentage!
