What's new

OFFICIAL: Trade Deadline Thread

I'm sorry, I forgot this word isn't in your vocabulary.

Win what? A playoff game? Series? Championship? Other good teams will take note of what Houston did tonight, and send their point guards to double in the post, and the Jazz will be lucky to win one playoff game this year. What teams do you think are going to give anything of value for Jefferson or Millsap? If you can dump Marvin with one of them, and take back only expirings, picks and young players, you do it. Tank hard for Wiggins.

Agreed. But if we get a half decent point guard back, the team won't be capable of tanking. I don't care if our bench is littered with 7 Luke Waltons, (insert young PG here), Burks, Hayward, Favors & Kanter win 35 games (minimum) in their first full season. It wouldn't surprise me at all if they made the playoffs.

Given that the Jazz organization has demonstrated little commitment to playing high draft picks or younger players when journeymen veterans can be had for cheap instead, I don't see this happening. This problem is not new. Is there another organization on the planet that would have put up for so long of playing Milt Palacio or Chucker McLeod over the #3 pick Deron Williams? Why do the Jazz even bother with the draft? Just trade draft picks for veterans, play to reach the 8th or 7th seed each year, and give up any pretension of building a potential title contender in the future.

I think this is pretty much already the present.
