Trade idea with the Hornets

The Thriller said:
With so much uncertainty, lets wait.

Kanter could easily suck after not playing Basketball for so long.

Lets wait and see what happens with the new CBA, our own roster, and maybe Millsap ends up being a killer SF too. Who knows?

Lets wait and see before we trade.

I agree with this. The tricky part is, everyday that Kanter and Favors get better, Millsap's trade value is going down. The Jazz need to closely monitor Favors and/or Kanter's progression and the second they are ready to take over a starting role, move Millsap or Jefferson.

When that day comes, you move him because have four power forwards and no small forwards is not as good as having three power forwards and one small forwards.

I agree with this to an extent, however, if Kanter and Favors do pan out, then the other 29 teams will know that we want to move Millsap and his stock will dimish. I say if you can get dollar for dollar for Millsap, right now you do it, but if not, wait.

Millsap is similar to West. West is expected to opt out of his contract this week. Sf is are biggest need. I'm just trying to take advantage of the Hornets and free up minutes for Favors. What don't you understand?

Don't think NO would think about biting, but I'd love a Harris, Millsap, and next years GS pick for Chris Paul. As long as Chris Paul would agree to an extension. But, looking at what we got for Deron this wouldn't be enough. The only hope would be Chris Paul gets tired of losing in NO and likes the Jazz future and thinks he can win here. Works in the Trade Machine thingy.

I'm sure they would want Kanter or Favors.

I'm one of them.

Serious question, why is everyone so eager to get rid of Millsap? He's got an awesome contract and he's arguably our best and most consistent player. If Kanter and Favors turn out to be amazing, why get rid of the league's best 6th man? If they don't turn out all that great, then we at least have a solid 15-10, 20-9 guy that can start.

Jeez. It's like... Having a good deep roster is a bad thing for some of you right now. Keep Millsap.

I agree, but it's because people want an entire roster composed of 1st and 2nd-year players who play 40 minutes a night. Actually, once the mythical Danny Granger trade goes down, Granger could provide the veteran presence, but everyone else in their 1st or 2nd year. :rolleyes:
 
The way I see it, no team needs a superstar at every position. What's of greater value to a team is a bunch of guys who can play MULTIPLE positions. We have 4 guys who can play SF from last year; AK, who's familiar with the Jazz system and can also play some PF, same with Millsap, same with Evans, who I think could develop into a better version of Ariza, and Miles, who can play some SG too. Oh, and supposedly even Burks can do some time at SF, although I'd rather they keep him as a combo SG/PG. We seem to spend a lot of time focused on the shortcomings of AK, Millsap, and Miles. I think Miles and Millsap, as well as Evans, ARE YOUNG AND WILL GROW; they all got upside. And I'd re-sign AK, but at way less $$$ AND reduced PT. Despite his shortcomings, he DOES still make some good plays for us and IMO has value to the Jazz at SF as well as PF.

Why would David West opt out?

New Orleans Hornets forward David West confirmed Monday morning he'll opt out of the final year of his contract with the team and test NBA free agency.

In a phone conversation, West said he's not ruling out re-signing with the Hornets, but said "I want to win and win big." West said his decision to walk away from $7.5 million in he last year of his contract was in his mind all along, even before tearing the ACL in his left knee on March 24.

He had reconstructive surgery on April 12 and has been rehabbing the knee twice daily at his off-season home Raleigh, N.C.

The Hornets could still offer West an extension before the current collective bargaining agreement expires at midnight on Thursday.
