Westbrook to Utah in Dunn sign and trade

I believe League rules state... "If this happens a third time the Jazz are obligated to print Westbrook jerseys for fans to purchase." I am pre-ordering mine now!
 
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
 
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.
 
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?
 
So now we know why Ainge likes to take on these “reclamation projects” at the expense of better draft picks and rookies playing time.

Cash.
