Rubio traded to Jazz

[JazzForLifee]

Locke said today that the jazz offered 80mil to hill and he turned it down. Rubio is a much better option than hill at 20plus a year in my opinion.

is this real? holy ****

Hill ain't coming back, says some dude on Twitter.

I'm seeing Wolves fans really sad that Rubio is leaving and claiming Rubio is better than Hill. They're biased of course, but it's a good sign.

I don't believe this guarantees Hill is gone, but assuming he is, Utah has a much better situation with 26 year old Rubio at 28 mil for 2 years than 31 year old George Hill at 130 mil for 4 years.

Also, the team has sorely needed a passing PG basically since Stockton left. As of right now, this is one of my favorite trades the Jazz have ever made.

This. Just looked at a couple of their forums and they are pretty bummed. I was a bit surprised by that actually. Was expecting the opposite.

If that's true, I don't blame the Jazz. See ya, George! I doubt you get that from anyone else.

And the Jazz had better hire a darn good shooting coach.

Hill ain't getting 130 million

**** hill if true.

He is talking about at the contract extension talks, not recently.

Rubio is more fun, younger, and cheaper than Hill.

You don't think Lindsey has some idea how Hill is leaning or how much he wants?

You think he did this knowing Hayward would be pissed and leave if he did?

Give the front office a tiny bit of credit you guys.

Rubio lobs to Gobert. Gimme

More fun? What are we, 8 years old? I want to win and to do that, Hayward needs to ****ing stay.

Wait... was he talking about just now or was he talking about a few months ago? I had assumed you meant just now. If it's talking about a few months ago then ignore my previous comments.

The pick is top 14 protected.

That's why the pick would be trash.

Are all the details official? Any hope the Jazz were able to dump Burks?
