How about trading up for Trey Burke when Giannis and Schrodr would've fallen right in their lap.. Was that asinine?

Keep trying to find things to hate on.

He did make it a point to not sound fond of sticking in Utah. That had KOC and Co on the edge to begin with and then jurrah.....

If you can provide definitive proof the Jazz would have drafted that player.

Thats the closed minded perspective of a loser. Who's to say at this point there wasn't better opportunities to be seized? You?

You must not really understand the concept of BPA.. It's OBVIOUSLY way too early to call..

Just establishing a pattern that asinine things have gone on under this FO's nose..

Not even if it turns out there's a Rodney Hood or Rudy Gobert, or even Kahwi Leonard type steal that they turned a blind eye on in exchange for a 1 year rental just so they can make the playoffs and lose?

Well what if a meteor hits us? What if the dinosaurs come back.

That's all this is. A "what if" game.

That even ignores the fact that if I win a million dollars but lose out on 10 million I am still a winner. We got Hill and can see the learning right in front of our eyes. Last years team would have lost to the Spurs and Mavs when they closed the gap.

But continue on with all these baseless, factless "what ifs".

I almost flagged this thread based on the title.

I thought someone was making fun of grandma.

I think the closed perspective of a loser is not doing the trade.

Thanks for both of those posts. Very good to hear stuff like that. How can anyone not love george hill right now? (i dont think there are any jazz fanz that dont love him currently btw. Kind of a rehtorical question)

If you can't be with the one you love...love the one you're with.

It's certainly paying early dividends, there's still a great deal of risk involved though and if it's just for a 1 year rental in which they don't win a championship it's basically all for naught. Also if they turn a draft pick into a player that they need to pay a truckload of $$ like what this thread is about, the trade isn't as efficient as it initially appears, it's more like a good FA signing at the cost of a lottery pick..

that trade involves a draft pick so it will be years til we can truly tell, I say it's likely that the BPA at that spot will end up a damn good player.

There's also the risk of what if Hill gets hurt..

it was actually YOU who announced what this trade was already. You said it on the day it was announced. 'Asinine' is the word you used to define it. Glad to see you rolling it back.

Endlessly second-guessing draft choices.

Now THAT is asinine.

It's amazing scouts can predict player potential as well as they do. Busts are inevitable.

Well there is this

Just like to add that he's been saying this ever since he was first interviewed about the trade. Consistent there, too.

Was the Jazz trading the 35th pick in the 2014 draft for a 2nd in 2015, with Jordan Clarkson and Nikola Jokic (Jerami Grant and Dwight Powell too) on the board asinine?

lol... your campaigns of distraction are getting funnier, braugh
