Jefferson and Miles for Scola and Budinger.
I would seriously consider Al & CJ for Scola & Lee if it weren't for Scola's contract. There is no way in hell he'll be worth that money.

Lewis would not spread the floor...Harris is shooting better from deep.
The trade I like is Martin and Dragic for Al. Martin has fallen out of favor with Houston and with the McHale connection, I think they'd do it.

Seek a trade of Harris for a new jumbotron and Watson and Dragic run the point until we find something better.
I like this a lot. I'm not totally sure why NO would do it, though (unless they plan on just letting Gordon walk).Ok, here's the awesomest thing I could drum up:
Utah trades: Jefferson + NJ second-rounder
Utah receives: Dalembert + Jarrett Jack
Houston trades: Dalembert + Martin
Houston receives: Jefferson + Ariza + NJ second-rounder
NO trades: Jack
NO receives: Martin
Dalembert has a team option for next year. So, he could be brought back for $6.7 million, or let go for cap space. Houston does this to solidify paint scoring... which would help them. They let Martin go for Ariza because they have virtually no productive SFs and Courtney Lee and Dragic can play SG/combo guard.
It's pretty clear that NO comes out pretty well talent-wise.
Utah gets a PG + frees up cap space next year.
Jazz wind up with 4 PGs. Another trade needs to be made to get rid of Harris.
