The Jazz need to trade for a young point guard who can actually learn the offense. Devin Harris is garbage. How about Okur, Harris and CJ Miles for Holiday, Brand and a future 1st round pick. This way the Jazz eat up Brand's contract for the 76ers who has about 35 million/2 years left on his deal but we get one of the most promising young PG's in Holiday and a future draft pick. Plus we dump shot chucker.


PG: Holiday/Watson
SG: Burks/Bell/Hayward
SF: Hayward/Evans/Howard/Millsap
PF: Millsap/Favors/Brand
C: Jefferson/Favors/Kanter


Next year we could always trade Brand as he will be an expiring contract and draw a lot of interest from teams. How I see it is that the Jazz wont need that 35 million in the next 2 years as I don't think we will make major changes via free agency
 
I don't think it's that unrealistic. Maybe the extra draft pick could be the reason but it allows the 76ers to play Thaddeus Young at the PF and they clear tons of cap room.
 
Brand is doing alright and his contract keeps getting shorter. Holiday is probably the only untouchable on their roster. If the Jazz want him and don't want to give up any of our 4, they'll have to send at least Harris, the GS pick, and take back Nocioni. If salary matching weren't an issue, you'd probably have to include Jefferson or maybe even Millsap. Since it is an issue, you'd probably have to trade one of them for Brand.

But I really don't think they're trading Holiday unless they get something really, really nice back.

FWIW Holiday is the PG I covet most at the moment. I really don't think it's happening. I'd trade everything that's not the 4 guys for him.
 
Well if we include Jefferson instead of Okur and take away the draft pick thats Miles, Jefferson and Harris for Holiday and Brand. Of course Brand is just in there for salary cap purposes but he could always be exchanged with a different player

They'd have to throw in more salary and the Jazz would have to take out Miles. And you'd probably have to throw in the GS pick for fair value (you can't just trade away a budding star on a rookie deal for aging veterans, they need incentive down the road too).
