Lyles for a s&t Harris? Orlando gets a solid potential piece, Jazz get a stretch 4 / back up 3. I like it but I think it's bigger then that. Why wouldn't that be done by now?

I don't like that at all. I'd rather sign Harris to a max and force them to decide to match or not. Don't give up assets until you have to. Harris + Lyles >>> Just Harris or Just Lyles

Dallas could be in play here. As far as I can see they have NO point guards and we're flush...
Burke 4 Dirk. Calling it now. We get our stretch 4.
Houston is still in the LA running. Maybe DMo?
Flush is a very funny word to use for a team that had some of the worst PG play all year.
Doesn't Phoenix need to clear more cap-space if Aldridge wants to go there?

Jazz will be top 10 in the league next year. Not sure where that falls for us in the west, but they will be top 10. Book it.
I thought I read something that they would have to dump a bit more, maybe Im remembering wrong.
Whatever it is, I'm assuming it's tied to Aldridge and his decision somehow, which would explain why we are waiting on something to happen instead of a yes/no choice.
If HOU does add LA, they have a PF logjam. LA, Smith, DMo, and Thomas. Something's gotta give. If they decide to resign Josh Smith, DMo might be the odd man out, and kinda perfect for the Jazz as a 3rd big. Booker + Lyles gets it done, assuming HOU adds an additional salary dump player and a pick

We help them clear space to pair LA with Dwight and Harden and we give them a first rounder from this year? Why? They'd have to toss in Capela at minimum.
Motienujas would be nice, but this upcoming year will the last year of his deal and you know he is going to get a huge offer in free agency.

IF jazz move Lyles that is a definite upgrade.

This all seems really weird for a team that as of recently has put so much stock into the youth movement. Especially with summer league here, and in SLC. Just all seems weird.
