Westbrook to Utah in Dunn sign and trade

[Tony Jones]

Consider this....The Hornets got DEN's 25, 29, and 30 second round picks for taking on Reggie Jackson's $5.25M contract. The Jazz got a single second round swap and cash to take on WB's $4M deal.

The Hornets sold their cap space for future picks. The Jazz sold their cap space for extra cash.

The Nuggets were desperate to avoid the second apron. The Jazz were simply trying to do right by Kris Dunn. The two situations are apples and oranges

When a Jazz beat writer comes in and proves that I was right and Kqwin was wrong. No need for 3 more pages of arguing.

2030 swap

Decent chance that gets us up past that magic top-40 line.

 

[KqWIN]

Not once did I say the Jazz should have gotten the picks that the Hornets got, I simply said something factual. CHO used their space to get picks, the Jazz used it to get cash/help Dunn. Fact is fact.

 

[Coach Ellis]

Honestly what the hell was Denver thinking with that Jackson trade? It's so weird looking back at it. Why were they in such a hurry to get off 5 million? That has to be an owner being super weird and pushy, right?

A little surprised they didn’t just roll that into the Clippers/Utah deal with cash and picks and swaps coming to Utah, and then the Jazz just buyout Jackson. Oh well?

Retire his jersey! A Utah legend.

Well I was hoping Westbrook to fill the last two way opening. Darn it.

 

[Coach Ellis]

Retire his jersey! A Utah legend.

At the very least, they should sell it now. How many fans would buy a Westbrook jersey with this being his second time through? Absolute legend. No matter how hard he tries, he keeps coming back.

There has to be a 3rd statue coming soon.

A true legend. The Jazz have never lost a game he has started for them.

Wesrbrook should just retire
