On my way to salt lake yesterday with my business partner we got talking about okc and their problem with all these free agents hitting at the same time. They will have to resign Westbrook this offseason then James harden and serge ibaka the next. Harden is arguably the second best player on their roster and one of the best 2 guards in the game. After those 2 are signed okc is not going to have a ton of money to spend on ibaka unless they are willing to pay the luxury tax.
With that said here is my proposal for the future of the jazz. We all know that we have a glut of bigs and the 2 guard spot is pretty solid with Hayward and burks. The pg is awful and we desperately need a sf. 3 pt shooting is also important.
We trade millsap or jefferson, the gsw pick and maybe a future second to nab the Houston picks (still don't know why they want millsap and not Jefferson) we draft as rumored by pkm Terrance jones and Jeff Taylor. We also make a move to snag a late first and draft Jeff teague.
Now Tjones is a versital 3/4 that is a great player coming in off the bench and Jeff Taylor is a defensive specialist that can hit the 3 and is a senior so should be ready to play from day 1. Teague is draft to ride the pine and develope for a year or 2. I think the jazz like Teague.
Then in the summer of 2013 when Jefferson, Harris and Watson are off the books the jazz are is great shape financially. The have a lot of young studs and some money to spend. They make a huge play to sign serge ibaka. Say deandre Jordan numbers 4 or 5 years 45/50 mill. Okc with paying harden couldn't afford that unless they get rid of Westbrook. Also make a play for 1 or 2 mid level pgs for smaller contracts say 2 or 3 years 10/12 mill. like Eric maynor and or Darren collison.
Now you have a 3 headed monster at the big with ibaka and favors starting (best defensive tandem in the nba) and kanter off the bench. Tjones picking up some minutes at the 4. Great great front line.
The 3 has some solid players in jeff Taylor and Terrance jones.
2 guard has Hayward and burks
Pg has hopefully an improved Teague and collison and or maynor playing for the starter and minutes ( finally a good problem to have)
The next summer Hayward and favors are up for extensions and could get contracts like ibaka and still give the jazz flexibility.
2013 roster
Darren collison, Jeff Teague and maybe maynor (maybe not)
Gordon Hayward, Alex burks
Jeff Taylor, Terrance jones
Serge ibaka, Jeremy Evans (just to have his name on there)
Derrick favors, enes kanter

Or close to that
