What should Jazz do with Millsap?

If we are going to trade anyone, we need to wait till next year, speaking of the bigs. We need to see how Favors and Kanter progress, and how Memo plays if he plays.

If Kanter and Favors show well ether Millsap or Jefferson can be used to improve our draft status in a strong draft.

Agreed or at least wait until the trade deadline! Lets see how these young ones do before we give them the keys to the car. We are lucky that we have this option, most teams don't when they are rebuilding.
 
I have been on the trade Jefferson bandwagon for a while. It's not that I don't like the guy. He is a stand up guy. My issue with him is his MN mentality. He thinks that once he gets the ball it's his job to shoot no matter what. He seemed to never figure out that their are other capible scorers on the floor with him. All he had to do was run the play and find the open man.

Sap on the other hand runs plays and passes well. He plays better defense IMO as well.

Big Al doesn't play as good as he is supposed to play and i am sure he will never fulfill his potential
 
Jefferson's contract wouldn't bring equal value. He's a bit overpaid for what he brings.

With the shortened season, the more players who already know the basics of the system, the better. Keep them both, get Kanter mins whenever possible, and in two years when everyone but our four rooks/sophs are off the books, we decide who stays and who goes.

Two seasons isn't that long to have a logjam at the 4/5 spot. By that time we will know if Kanter is a bust and if Favors is the real future at the 4.
 
The Jazz could always start Favors and Millsap, and bring Big Al off the bench to help an anemic second unit.
That Millsap-Favors PF/C combination has not been attempted much--perhaps because the average height of that PF/C combination is somewhere around 6'9".

Then again, so was the often ill-adviced Boozer-Millsap combination, even when other combinations had given evidence of superior results on a regular basis.

There is a big difference between these two combinations, Boozers defense completely sucked, thats why an undersized big man, as much as smart and good defender he is, can not fill the holes boozer opened up in defense.

But Favors and Millsap, will be defensively really really good. Offensively we can argue, but won't be too much worse than Boozer-Millsap.

Boozer was a totally overrated player and thanks to Deron he was seen like a very good offensive player, so now he got overpaid by a foolish team called Chicago Bulls.
And they were overrated just because they won a couple of games in the year thanks to Rose and Korver that we didn't wanna keep at all. But there is no way in the hell that a team with Boozer in the line up is gonna win a championship. That's not fair to other teams and players who put decent amount of effort on the court not to get their *** beaten.
