OFFICIAL: Trade Deadline Thread

[MDAV28]

I personally do not want more picks or "assets" right now. I think what the Jazz need is a young, aggressive floor general.

Either way I will be watching the Jazz on Saturday and rooting like I always am.

Maybe all we need is some more picks and assets to get that young, aggressive floor general.

Trey Burke.

Nobody believes this.

Whatever you are smoking... I want some.

Wish I could pos you again.

I'm a lot more positive on Favors, Hayward, Kanter, and Carroll than you negative nancies.

The Best part of trade deadline day is watching all Jazz fans get all upset over no trade. So at 1:00 pm it's going to get real entertaining around here.

That just makes the ones that do occasionally happen all the more shocking. I still remember when my brother called to ask what I thought about the Deron deal. I was working so I had not heard the news. I thought he was punkin' me at first.

That may be true considering no one wants to give up Favors, Hayward, Burks or Kanter.

Raja Bell's camp isn't expecting the Utah Jazz guard to be involved in a trade today. "Probably not," his agent said. One hour to deadline.

Awesome.

And South Temple is still quiet.

ATL still underwhelmed with offers for Smith, but most believe they'll settle for one of the offers rather than risk losing him this summer. @AlexKennedyNBA

i wonder where smith ends up. sounds like hes going no matter the price

Missing out on Bledsoe is going to put this board in a foul mood.

One thing cap space can do is allow us to take on some other teams salary dumps to get under the luxury tax and receive assets/picks for doing so.

We always say this, but all we got out of cap space and other's contracts is Al, even though we still had to give up three first round picks for him.

This is why I think Al is back next fall. I don't think the Jazz's thinking is, "let's get something for him because we aren't going to overpay for him."

Their thinking is, "we will keep Al and Millsap so we can use them against each other in negotiating to get a deal on one of those players."

Too bad both will be offered big deals from other teams, so the Jazz will have to overpay to keep either of them.

Pretty sure the Clips wanted Milsap + Hayward/Burks for him and I'd be real happy if we didn't do that trade. Milsap for Bledsoe is a no-brainer. Don't think KOC/Lindsey are that stupid.

So, Green, are you going to still be a fan after 1:00 p.m. and watch every Jazz game for the rest of the season?
