Utah Trade Deadline Discussion

I think the big difference is that Gordon is young and has the higher ceiling, especially on defense. He's gotten better every year he's been in the league, and is 22. While Mirotic is older, he is not as good of a defensive player. I just think that Gordon fits the Jazz better, especially long-term

Sure. And I'd have no problem with Gordon and would welcome it. But one of those guys is hard (impossible) to obtain while the other is quite easy to obtain. The guy who's hard to obtain isn't called out for a huge outlier year, but the guy who has a pretty big volume of data showing he's a good shooter is written off as an inconsistent shooter on a hot streak.

I would go after Jabari first simply for the reason that he would probably cost less. We could probably offer expirings and take back their bad contracts (Dellie and Teletovic) and they will listen a little bit. I don't think we desperately have to send Hood AND a 1st. If we could turn Hood into an okay first (something lower than where ours projects), I bet we try the following and not get laughed at:

Favors, Joe and the attained 1st
for
Parker, Dellie and Teletovic

The Bucks get help for now, shed over $21 million for next year, and get a first for a guy they might let walk this summer if he gets too big of a deal.

I think they would have. Jazz have drafted everyone Locke has fawned over in the last several drafts. 2011 burks. 2013 Gobert. 2014 he made these huge videos on Gordon and absolutely loved him. 2015 lyles. 2016 he said there was no one he loved in the draft and we traded the pick. 2017 Mitchell.

Right now even the Orlando fanz see Gordon being a chucker without looking at his team mates.Also not playing defense ,remember their the worst team at this moment in the NBA.
If he does have a higher ceiling ,it would start by being a better team mate .He's falling the footsteps of a young Carmelo in volume shooting,though not as good as shooter as Carmelo was.Right now Mirotic cares more about defense than Aaron Gordon does making him a better team defense player.

I use to think Gordon would look so good on Utah but he's in gunner mode now ,not sure that's going to change.

In what way do you mean? There are many reports that the Bucks might let Parker walk this summer if he gets too big of a deal in restricted free agency. If there is a chance they might lose him for nothing, wouldn't it be smart to tether some terrible contracts to him on his way out? The Bucks will be a free agency destination with the Greek Freak there.
