3 tanking trades to consider

2. Memphis can't trade their pick and Prince is too expensive next year to take on.

Let's change that to a 2017 first round pick, and Prince is less than 8 million next year so that is a doable contract to eat. Honestly there isn't much out there to trade with, but this one makes sense for both sides!!
 
Most around here over value the actual value of jazz players. Need to come up with realistic trades. The prince for marvin is one I could actually see happening
 
I would trade Marvin and Biedrins straight up for Okafor to free up time for Kanter. Hell if they throw in a pick then great. Then we can get back to our tanking ways.

Ant they would add a pick excactly why? To trade one big expiring contract for two smaller ones? Marvin can play, but so can Okafor when he gets back.

The dude has a bad neck, he's not going to be back for a while. Plus, Marvin > Okafor and I don't think that's debatable. But either way, do the trade without a pick if its there.
 
There are some flaws here, but perhaps the most glaring is the idea that the Jazz are supposed to somehow become WORSE with Kanter playing less minutes (0) for the Jazz.

Hayward belongs in these scenarios since there's a good chance that the Jazz will be forced to move on without him anyway (or at least should if he gets an offer for an annual salary above what the Jazz offered him this offseason) and he's a cog that makes some nice things happen for the Jazz right now.

I really try to be a dick. Like a real dick. But you set the bar so high.

I calls 'em like I sees 'em. And like, you know, empirical data shows.



Get better Enes. I still root for you harder than anyone.

If you trade Marvin Williams...... That hurts our bench..... Which helps tank!!
