@ ugli hopefully yeah but my bigger concern is getting a top 5 of our own this would be a true tank move would it not?

No you dont take on the worst contract in the NBA to get mildly worse.

Gerald Wallace is far too ugly to play for the Jazz

I have faith that the Jazz will somehow find a way to get a great draft pick. Maybe Diante Garrett will get hurt, forcing JLIII into action.

You think it's only mildly worse? I thibk it would plug us up.

Plus If the celtics want to unload the contract there aren't going to be many takers. Gotta be worth something substantial.

Then UGLI baby is all:

Thats why I brought up picks.

I'd do it for their unprotected 14' pick.

Right I don't know what we could get, I was just sayin that we could make this trade and it would probably make us a worse team.

or

Wallace and rondo for marvin and jefferson

let rondo spend the rest of the year healing?

The tank can suck it. I want to watch a competitive team that is a good player and a couple of years away from being a contender.

A good player like the one you might get in the draft if you lose more games?

 

[NUMBERICA]

We need another major piece. It doesn't have to be on the same level as Durant. But we do need a legit no.1 option (Burke ain't it).

And if the Jazz fall out of the top 6 or maybe 7, where are they going to get one? The Jazz haven't had a legit no. 1 option since Deron in '10 (and he has always needed Boozer and Sloan). They aren't easy to come by.

I don't want to make these arguments.

Goodbye tank, welcome 10 more years of mediocrity.



OFFICIAL PREDICTION: Jazz pick falls into the 7-9 range.

I doubt it. I see the youth hitting that January/February wall and just losing a bunch. That being said this early awful start (minus the last two games) may be the blessing in disguise for them to stay in that 2nd to 3rd worst record in the league.
