Jazz want a proven starting point guard for #3

Good God, Jennings is awful.

16 and 5 is awful for a point guard?

Nash plays like 24 minutes a night. Geez just sign Stockton to a one year deal, it would only cost the vetran minimum and one pair of the old tighty whities. I'd rather keep the pick and just draft the 13th best player.

What? Nash played 33 minutes a game last year, he played 34 and 35 minutes a game in his prime, so wherever you got that I don't know?

After this season Nash said he wants to play three more years, so what if he signed a three-year extension with the Jazz?
 
He'll no. With the #3 pick you want at worst, a 10 year starter. Why would trade a 10 year starter possibly allstar for a guy that MIGHT have three average years left. Might.

Locke also said that Corbin wants Utah to become a tough, defensive team. How does Nash fit that?
 
But Nash won't sign an extension with the Jazz. That's the problem. Nash is going for a ring. I'd be shocked if he doesn't sign a reduced value deal with the right team he thinks he can win with. He's just biding his time until he makes his final career decision.

When was the last time Nash was average?

Jonathan Givony on the Timberwolves #2:



Jonathan Givony on the Jazz #3:



Suns are one of the two teams who are trying the hardest to move into the top three, the reason they want to do that is to draft Derrick Williams. Lets say Minnesota drafts Enes Kanter at #2 meaning Derrick Williams would fall to #3, also since the Jazz want a proven starting point guard would you do this trade:

Jazz trade Devin Harris, Raja Bell, and #3 to Suns for Steve Nash and #13

Jazz get an all-star point guard in Nash who has two or three more great years in him, they get rid of Raja Bell, and they move down from #3 to #13 giving them #12 and #13 in the draft.

Great, we should wait two or three more years before we can start to take winning a championship seriously one day.

Butt-****ing no.
 
I can't believe anyone that's in the middle of a rebuild (let's call it what it is) would consider trading their windfall prize for a guy that will be tickling 40.
 
I'd rather have Knight in the Knight vs Nash contest (if we're going for a PG - which I doubt, otherwise why would KOC have asked for Harris in the trade?).

Gone are the days of a pass first PG.

Athletic, attacking the rim PG with some range is definitely the way of the future.
 
I doubt we trade all that for a one year rental of Nash. THere would have to be a future 1st, or some other players coming through.
 
Most teams committed to a total youth movement have no talent to begin with. And most of those teams don't get better trying to go with youth because the overwhelming majority of draft picks don't turn out to be anything special. Youth is a drug.

KOC has to figure out how to add to the talent we already have which is much better than the talent of most crappy teams. It might mean drafting the 'future' at 3. But if you can get the right guy, you definitely give up this year's 3.
 
We have proven starters with Jefferson Millsap and Harris. Just use our draft picks, we need two of our prospects (Hayward, Favors, #3(Kanter), #12(Fredette)) to have good years and we have a playoff squad.
 
To be honest, there isn't any PG (except Paul, DWill, Rose, Wall) that I'd trade the #3 (Knight) pick for..

Knight's not perfect. But wouldn't you rather have him than Rondo, Curry, Miller, etc?
