He can only get so athletic, which is not athletic at all. Just doesn't have enough lateral quickness to play on the perimeter defensively for long stretches IMO. Would be awesome to see him get drafted by a team willing to get creative with him.

I think the Jazz probably feel like they've got enough good young pieces and that adding another in the mid-late first round won't help our cause much.
??? Who's his mentor this year? Biedrins??
I think the same could have been said of Evan Turner, not that Turner is a bad player. It's just that he doesn't prototypically fit any one position, and his skills aren't dominant enough to create much of a mis-match anywhere. I could see KA falling into the same category. Most teams want PGs that are quick, have a quick-release jumper, and can drive to the rim. That's not KA's game.
He had 2 years with Al and he's got summers with Karl Malone. Scola's not going to add to his game.

Copeland maybe, I remember the Jazz having interest in the off season but lost out. Copeland plus swapping the GS pick with Indiana's would save them about 2 million dollars next year. With GS not a lock to make the playoffs though, I wouldn't make the swap.
LOL. The Pacers would do that in a heartbeat. Some guy who doesn't play for a chance to get the 14th pick, or a pick that will for sure be way better than the pick they are giving up.
The Jazz would laugh their asses off doe.

Its got to be someone who can continue to keep burks on the bench next year and take minutes from him.
Stephenson is my guess.... or they get hill and use him as a shooting guard.
Oh **** you're right! Jazz was 1 of the team interested in Copeland in the offseason too!!! The pieces fit!!!
Jazz have a bunch of expiring deals to move--Jefferson, Rush, Biedrins, Marvin. Did Rush once play for Indiana?
So.... Rush and a pick for a player we actually want.

Well would not say zero. We don't know where the pick will be and I'm not so sure the jazz would not just stack assets if they did not feel they were getting something better in return.
Teams contending for titles don't give up key players for the 14th pick at best, most likely the 23rd pick.
I would say they were talking about trading Marvin. Only ish that makes logical sense.
No one wants ****ing Copeland. He is 29 and gets 5 mpg.

The Official "We Have Given Up on Granger Ever Being Good Again" Pacer's trade. They throw in their 1st round pick.
