REALGM: Joe wants out

Chain him to a toilet until he loves being with us again

Send him to Boston for the Hayward exception. I'd love to see JJ back Bron down in the playoffs. Does that put us below the salary floor though? Or would the exception keep us above... I assume it is possible as trade machine shows an exception for Haywood.

What the hell is the deal with Jazz fans wanting to make favorable trades with the Celtics? **** that. **** them. I’m not dealing with Boston until Ainge is gone. Find a better deal that won’t piss off the majority of the fan base.
 
The incentive for Utah is to treat him really well because guys like him aren't beating down doors to play in Utah. You want other players to hear how things work in Utah so that someday they might consider signing here as well.

BTW, Utah was talking of buying him out well before this story came out. Not only are they not going to play hardball with him, they will not trade him to the highest bidder, but instead help him get to a team he wants to play for. That means they will buy him out, even if it means turning down some minor asset from a team he doesn't want to go to.

Utah is going to bend over backwards to treat Joe well in this case.

Completely agree. Was kinda pissed reading JJ "wants out of Utah"... we don't need that noise, didnt think it was nessessary because I beleive the FO will look after him. I dont care either way now though.

Even now?

I absolutely agree with you.
Boston wouldn't even give us a trade exception during the whole Hayward fiasco. We were literally begging Hayward and the Celtics to help us out. I would not be surprised if the Jazz just put the Celtics on the do not call list.
