Bell is useless on the floor but he brings leadership and character to a young Jazz squad. With that being said, I'd rather have Bell be the last man out on the team and Ty needs to start Burks
I'm leaning more towards giving Burks solid minutes each game but not starting him. Not ready yet but hopefully by seasons end...

Raja Bell wants to be traded

Versatility is probably the best description for the game of ALBA’s new American guard, Kyle Weaver. At Washington State University he was first known as a defensive specialist with long arms, but improved his offense so much over his four-year college career that he was drafted at number 38 into the NBA, where he played 20 minutes a game for the Oklahoma City Thunder until he suffered a shoulder injury in 2010. At his height, he is also able to play small forward, and because of his passing ability, he can also fit in as point guard. He competed in last year’s playoffs for the Belgian team Spirou Charleroi, and now begins his first complete season in Europe with ALBA BERLIN.

That was especially the case for Weaver at Sacramento a week ago.
The 6-foot-6 guard made the most of his 30 minutes of action, hitting 7 of 11 shots for an NBA-career-high-tying 19 points. His breakout game included a 3-for-5 outing from beyond the arc.

So, let me try to redirect this:
Are we satisfied with the core that we currently have. As someone said, we have a point forward. At what point do you stop trying to get new talent and instead pick up pieces to compliment current players on the roster. It seems like most threads about trading players and cutting players are in an effort to get new starting talent, but don't we already have the starters or at least future starters that we need? My one exception to this is the point guard. Of all the players on the team, I feel Harris is the one that fits the least at least as far as starting players go, and we don't have a young player to take up the reigns if he goes away. Beyond this at the 2 wehave raja (boo) but he has Burks waiting to take the reigns, or Hayward if you like. At the 3 we have Howard, and CJ or Hayward ready to take the reigns. At the 4 we have Millsap, with Favors ready to take the reigns. Finally at the 5 we have Al, with Kanter ready to take the reigns. The point is, at every position we have veterans to lead, with young talent to cover and back them up until the point that they prove they are ready to take over EXCEPT at the point guard. If we focus anywhere, it should be at the point guard, and with a young upcoming talent.

I think the best move would be to add one more solid veteran role player, one that could completely replace Raja, with Memo's TPE. I'm not really into the idea of trading our current vets for more young, mostly unproven players (especially when we are looking at another 1 or 2 lottery picks next year). I think there needs to be a degree of stability to the team for the current youngsters to succeed. Making the playoffs this year would be a great for their development also.
Then when Jefferson's contract is coming to a close, you ship him out for some quality backup players and a draft pick.

Homey... This is a well thought out, intelligent, and may I add, ORIGINAL post to a hot topic thread starter...
You did research... You described the players background... And explained why we should bring him on board...
However... We still have 1 little problem... It's the little green lights man...
See here's the thing about this board that you must understand... Anything more than a paragraph, FORGET ABOUT IT! You're long winded...
You have to have about 5 more of those little green lights next to your name... THEN, you have to learn how to "peck" out elementary insults/one liners on your keyboard... That's what makes or breaks you on this board...
Again... 5 more little green lights... And snappy one liners like "You're a loser"... And... "This topic again?"... "Frown"...
Got it... Good!!
