OFFICIAL: Trade Deadline Thread

I just heard a ridiculous lost your mind trade on ESPN that would send Sap and Gordan to the Pacers for Granger??? Is there a single Jazz fan alive that would say make that trade? I can't think of one.

It's interesting that you say that, because a lot of people thought the Rudy Gay trade would open the floodgates, which clearly hasn't been the case.

Thats true but trades dont usually happen that far away from the trade deadline.

lol just watching ESPN and their "trade expert" jumped on the trade machine and said Utah should trade Millsap for Granger, but that does not work. He decided we need another throw in player to make salaries work. How about this young backup in Utah named hayward? But then decided that was too much for Utah to give up so he gave us a crappy 1st from Indiana this year. We dont need 3 crappy firsts in this years draft and we are not trading Hayward and Millsap for Granger. Now if you change Hayward for Marvin you have a deal.

Giricek hasn't played in the NBA in 5 years.
 
Bill Simmons on the Ryen Russillo show was asked about the Utah situation.

Says a deal that makes sense to him is a three team deal.

Boston gets Favors
Clips get Garnett
Utah gets Bledsoe.


Holy hell, is he retarded or what?

Here's the link (see post #27 at 10:35). So it did happen :-)

I'm probably most excited about this trade. We'd still have a chance at re-signing Millsap (and he could still start). Leonard is a very good shooter with great range. He's what we were hoping Marvin would be. And I still maintain Williams could be a much better player once the Jazz start moving the ball. Getting rid of Jefferson is the only way to make that happen.

The two organizations have always had great respect for each other. And they have ties with Lindsey coming over from SA and Layden going to the Spurs. This deal really could have some legs. I like DeMarre Carroll, but it's not a lock the Jazz can re-sign him. Jazz would have a very solid rotation in place at all positions, except PG. Mo will certainly be back, but Burks may/may not be the answer behind him. Jazz could use their two picks and/or available cap space to get a backup PG and a 4th big.

That is awful. It would put the Jazz is a terrible position in the off season with two UFA bigs, Millsap and Jefferson. I like Bill Simmons writing at times, but that trade is downright ridiculous.

Simmons is a LAC homer though,

although Celtics are the big winner in that stupid trade.

Uhh. He's a Celtics fan first. Which is why it's no mystery that the Jazz are the ones getting shafted here.

I will say this for his idea though: at least the Jazz are getting a promising talent back for another promising talent as oppose to "JAZZ TRADE FAVORS, BURKS, JEFFERSON, AND TWO 1ST ROUNDER FRO PAUL PIERCE".
