I think we need to shake up the roster...

The idea of a shakeup is tough for a few reasons:

1- limited assets… not a lot of young players or picks.
2- money crunch… normally you could find a deal where you take on a little salary but in any deal we’d very likely be shedding some salary.
3- we have solid vets we’d trade but we’d want solid vets now… so we want a more useful solid vet.
4- we’d likely need two deals to rebalance the roster… which means have to find more trade partners.

Example… you could probably get something done around Bojan for Smart… maybe. But then you need to move JC for a wing or forward… how ya gonna do that. JC for Smart does nothing for Boston.

We have our guys… they need to figure out whatever this bull **** is.

Truth is that we probably missed our opportunity in the summer. It’s so much easier to get deals done during the off-season. Maybe the shooting problems are a surprise, but the defensive issues should have surprised no one so if we were going to make that trade it probably would have already happened.

In regards to that last part about Bogey/Smart. I don’t think there’s a positional concern there. Smart provides more defensive “big man” value than Bogey…who pretty much provides nothing in that area. Bogey is 6’8 and Smart is 6’3…but they do not play like that on the court.

Lol let's trade bojan and this is solve all our problems. Line for him be long ,trust me...
 
I hate PJ Tucker but he exposed us so much. He's always around the ball for rebounds and annoys other players. We have one too many guys that do the same thing. Too many of our guys half *** it on rebounds and defense. A trade is needed at some point. Or we will get the same result.

I agree with Stan VanGundy who said in the pregame yesterday that the Jazz miss Niang and Favors. I’m sorry but so far this season Paschall and Whiteside have not been able to fill their predecessors shoes.

lol, wut???

Hassan and Paschall have been awesome thus far. These bench guys are not the reasons why we are struggling. Age catching up with our starters like Bogey, Conley and Jingles is. One can even argue that the Jazz should play Hassan/Paschall even more and take some minutes away from Jingles/Bogey.

Spot-up threes/screen and roll actions are nice, but not if those are the only things that Niang/Favs were good at. Favs/Niang minutes completely killed the Jazz at times, resulting in multiple games when they had a brutal defensive rating of 160+. We were actually gaining points and winning ball games this season with Whiteside/Paschall minutes.
