What's new

Let's Trade for a 3 point shooter.

The only problem I have with this thread is that it resolves absolutely nothing and gives us no new ideas.

For as long as I can remember we've talked about the desperate need to upgrade our wing situation.

If we're not lacking because of Raja, CJ, Hayward, or AK, then it's Brewer and Korver.

Before it was AK and one legged gassy Harpring.

Before it was Fisher and Girasuck.

Before that John Starks...

Before that Calbert Cheney....

Before that Bruss...

We've been needing a SG for more than a decade. We've been needing to upgrade our wings for years and years and years. Our PG and PF spots have always been great.

Yet, the more things change the more they stay the same.

The only spark of a good wing we've had in years was Wes Matthews. Unfortunately, dumbass Portland offered him a ton of money while we were unbelievably restrained. too bad indeed....
 
We've talked about Salmons, Terry, Marion, J Howard, J smooth, Corey maggette, Stevie Jackson, etc. Yet KOC hasn't made any of these moves. Doubt this year, with a pending lockout and our salary situation, will force his hand.

The only way KOC makes a move this year, is if someone has a total and complete meltdown w/Sloan. their relationship will need to degenerate past the point of now return.

In that case, the Jazz would be on the bottom of a trade, receiving little to nothing in return but unloading a cancer.

It is well-documented that Kevin O'Connor canceled his JF account in 2007, sometime around the end of the season. I don't recall who is to blame, but we have to find another medium of communication that he would be receptive to (pardon the dangling participle. didn't think anyone would mind).

You just can't resist anything that dangles.
 
Yeah, cause we're going to get any of those guys LOL

...I think the point he was making was that all those clowns...are no better or even worse than the clowns we got....but we got them at a cheaper price! Clowns to the left of me...jokers to the right....here I am....stuck in the middle with YOU!
 
OP got stuck with 3PT% which alone won't show you how efficient a wing player is. All those guys he mentioned may have a lousy long range shooting percentage, but they have one thing in common and that is their ability to score on you even if the opponents tigthens their defense. Meanwhile our guys may look fundamentally sound within our system but they have not the individual talent to break free from tight defenses.
