AK for Bosh

So basically if you are a free agent, you can sign wherever you want. If Toronto asked you if you wanted to do a sign and trade so they could get something in return, it would totally be up to you, the free agent, to decide if you wanted to do it.

It's not really even a matter of even being traded. To me the only reason you would let any team do a sign and trade with you is if they could work out a deal with the team that you already want to go to because you could get a one year longer contract and more money, because the team that is signing you before they trade you is the team that you played for for the last few years.

So the only reason a good Free Agent probably would let the team they are leaving do a sign and trade would be so that they could get more $$$$ and a longer contract.
 
Why were at it lets trade CJ for Lebron

If you think you can figure out circumstances like these that make it so both sides might even consider the idea, be my guest, but I think you're being a bit of a sensationalist. But, to each their own.

Too bad we're not NYC or Chicago, or a deal like this might actually happen.

Don't you hate that? I wish it wasn't about the city, and just the team. Can't say I completely blame players. Being a military brat as a kid and then working for the military as an adult, I appreciate the qualities of a good city that you enjoy. But then again, Hill Air Force base in Utah was one of my favorites, so I probably wouldn't mind being stuck in Utah :)
 
it would make so much sense for him to work with the best pg in the league but we still need another piece for contention and i think he prolly realizes that.

True. We might be able to sign another piece though after getting out from under AK's contract and letting Boozer walk(not that I dislike Boozer or anything). We could be financially ok to sign another piece. Of course, this is all hypothetical and far fetched dreaming, but hey, nothing else going on in the Jazz world these days.
 
I could possibly see Bosh wanting to play with Williams.

Reality is that it won't happen.

AK by himself is little enticement for Toronto. Not signing Bosh leaves them 20-25 million under the cap. AK for one year at 17 million just isn't likely. The Jazz would likely have to take on someone like Calderon and give up Millsap and future considerations for it, making the prospect less attractive in the long run for the Jazz.

Plus, as mentioned, Bosh would have to agree with it. The Jazz couldn't afford him as much as he's going to get on the open market anyway.
 
You'd have a better chance if it was a sign and trade with Boozer for Bosh. Offering up AK before the deadline will just get the Jazz laughed at.
