That team competes for a top 3 pick. not a top 3 playoff spot. We don't improve with this trade them get worse. Love kills our defense and may help on offense but not as much as both Burks and Favors combined.Here's the biggest reason to do this:
The Jazz would actually be interesting. They could compete for the #3 spot in the west with LA. Maybe #2 depending on what SA does.
I mean, who would want that? Oh, and they don't lose any of their important players. We'd still have Exum, Hood, Hayward, Gobert and Lyles. Lyles learns to be a stretch four. Hood's ceiling is probably Batum. Exum gets to play behind a very good PG.
And the Jazz would be interesting to watch. I mean, who wants that? Nah, let's bake the cake and compete for an 8th seed with Favors. No thanks.

No way I even entertain this trade. I don't know why you Love Love so much but I have 0 interest in him. He's too expensive and not good enough.
Kevin Love was 8-10 FG, 3-4 3 pt, with 25 points tonight. yeah, he would TOTALLY make Utah worse.
Bake that cake and fight for eight. The new Utah slogan, and you guys throw money at the Millers to do so.
