George Hill coming to Utah

The best crop of PGs in 2017 isn't going to be ripe until 2019. So who gives a flying **** how good a bunch of PGs might be who will be in the 2017 draft class. Seriously, how far down the road are teams supposed to kick the can? Your brilliant strategy would be to roll the dice next year, hope to hit double sixes and then develop that for a couple years, then put the right players around whatever we have at that point and start really competing in like 2022?

Ain't nobody got time for that!

He was talking about free agency, not the draft, but he also thinks we should max Harrison Barnes.
 
Oh and to your second point is there a chance in hell that the jazz could have a good playoff team this coming season and keep the #12 pick without getting hill? Could the jazz get a free agent this summer?

Yeah, would have rather gone this route. Batch of unrestricted free agents is not to great though. Rondo and Conley almost no chance to get them. Other guys out there include: Lin, E Moore, Delly, Felton, DWill, Augustin, Lawson, N Cole, B Jennings, Ish Smith, and Sessions. Also at least one or two interesting guys from overseas including Malcolm Delaney.

None of them as good as Hill. Not anywhere close.

Source: Jazz still trying hard to deal Trey Burke, if no takers, they'll still guarantee Mack's $2.5M and negotiate buy out of Burke's $3.5M

Why are the Jazz telegraphing this? That almost guarantees they are going to have to eat his contract. Why not say something like "We think Trey is a valuable part of our team, has a great upside and is in our long-term plans."?
 
One of @PG_AB ideas on how to improve the team, until he sucked in the finals and dude started deleting his posts. Typical of him.

Did he seriously delete his posts so that he wouldn't look dumb? That's dumb.

Because other teams would be like "cool, you can have him..."
 
Either Lindsey like George Hill more than Teague or he believes Hill is more likely to like Utah than Teague. Lindsey has a personal connection with Hill as well from his days in SA

F*** off to Lindsey and his personal connections! I don't like this trade and I consider Teague better than Hill.

So all the mini-camps to evaluate the draft players has been a farce?

The Jazz have not trust in Neto after this trade.

What happens if Hayward decides next season to opt out of contract in advance?
 
these silly team allegiances are akin to housewives rooting for their favorite actors in day-time soaps, the way I see it. Thats certainly reflected on this forum. Thats the sell in team sports, thats what generates ticket sales and merchandise sales, they prey on consumers want/need to feel apart of a team,

Damn, dude. That's kind of mean spirited.

I haven't been here in a few months...is everything good?
