I am pretty unfamiliar with Juancho's game, is he any good? Seems like a tweener, is he okay on D? Or is he just salary filler?

All reports are he was a throw in to make the salaries match up and more than likely won't play in a Jazz uniform.

I remember him in DNV and SAS shooting well against the Jazz and having an impact on the game but that doesn't mean he does it consistently and given he as been added as a throw in then SAS and POR both must feel the same (that he doesn't have a consistent impact with his minutes).
 
I remember reading CHA wanted to try and get a big, well now the Jazz have a glutton of bigs, so just saying .... who knows maybe a potential trade partner.
 
My 2 cents: I don't know much about NAW but I remember him being hyped out of college. I saw one game and he was horrible and another where he looked pretty good. I just don't see the need for another guard. We have Forrest who has showed some improvement. We have JB who needs developing and now you bring in another guard who has played badly this year. I always laugh when the organization talks about developing guys but who have they really developed. What I have observed is that the Jazz seem to be stuck in the mindset to bring in older players past their primes and sit the young developing guys which has been very frustrating to watch. I hope NAW surprises me and can help the team. I hope they sign House too. Move JC to get another defensive SF.

Ben anderson was on the radio talking about this trade and loved it. He also said that he feels certain that the jazz aren't done and mentioned Gay, Clarkson and a first for Barnes being a possibility.

Talk about coming from left field. I can’t believe we did this. I am ****ing ecstatic. Grabbing NAW is huge.

His offensive numbers are putrid this year. I do hope that changes now that he’s leaving a bad team for a good one, since you seem to know about him, is he a good, decent, average defender at least?
 
Here’s my unsolicited opinion on this trade:

Two parents have a sick child. She’s running a fever of 102 and she’s really uncomfortable, unable to rest. The wife has been trying to take care of her all day and sends the husband to the store to get Tylenol so that hopefully she can reduce the fever enough to allow some comfort and for her to get some sleep. The girl doesn’t need anything fancy, just a bottle of $3.99 Tylenol and it can even be the Equate brand. The husband comes home with a new flavor of Doritos to try and some mints that were really cheap. The wife asks where the Tylenol is and, honestly, he totally forgot. But not to worry, he got the Doritos and mints essentially for free because he had a gift card that was going to expire and he essentially got the goods for nothing. Besides, Walmart may have not had any Tylenol, anyway.

The Doritos may be good. They may really hit the spot. But anyone who tells you how good they may taste is being willfully obtuse.

I don’t really see it this way at all.

It’s more like the dad ran to the store with $4 with the expectation of getting the $3.99 generic Tylenol. The mom doesn’t have much faith in him to bring back what he’s supposed to. Not only does he come back with the Tylenol he comes back with the name brand that was on sale for $2.99. He got more than expected and saved some money while he was at it.
