Jazz trade Devin Harris to Atlanta for Marvin Williams (merged)

wow, if true, the Hawks are finally tearing that **** down. That looks like a move that will result in a tank job.
 
I know Johnson's contract sucks, but they sure didn't get much from the Nets for him. Wonder if we could have enticed them with a Big Al, Devin Harris, and the GSW pick for Johnson? That seems better than the garbage they got from the Nets, and it still gives them expiring contracts. A SG isn't our big need, but if we slide Hayward to the 3 a starting lineup of Mo Williams, Joe Johnson, Hayward, Millsap, and Favors could have been interesting. Would have screwed our financially flexibility though so probably wouldn't have been worth it.

Awful idea. There's a reason the Hawks took back trash for Johnson. Yeah he's good, but he has probably the worst contract in the league. I remember when ATL signed him that people were saying that even though they overpaid, they didn't really have a choice. I totally disagree with this. A bad deal is a bad deal.

If NJ resigns DWill they will have roughly $50MM tied up between DWill, Crash & JJohnson. That's easily the worst super team in the league. I wouldn't even consider them a super team, but NJ is paying them like they are.
 
Then again, if Patrick Kinahan is the one breaking this rumor, I'll stop holding my breath. When he says a player is committing to or leaving BYU, I believe him but his Jazz credibility has yet to be established.

Hahahahahahaha. The trade makes sense on both sides. Maybe Harris can play some 2 for them. A Harris and Teague backcourt is good but undersized

Per David Aldridge twitter minutes ago: Breaking: Nets "very close" to acquiring Joe Johnson from Hawks for Farmar, Petro, Morrow, Williams, Stevenson and protected pick (Houston).

And per Nets beat writer Stefan Bondy twitter minutes ago: "League source confirms the Nets have all but finalized deal for Joe Johnson. Wow."

This is what happens when you max a player like Joe Johnson. You back-peddal and take scrubs from one of the worst teams in the league.
