I know we all don't wanna lose Hood for nothing, since we invested so much time in him. Hood, however is not the answer, we need to trade him or else we will regret it greatly.

As for now, the longer we keep Favors, Hood and Burks in our line up the more we waste time and delay our growth. We need to find trades for them for more hard nosed defenders with better scoring attributes - i know easier said then done. I also think we part ways with Exum because I think Rubio is our pg of the future.

We have every chance of signing Hood for $12-$16Mil/yr if his output and shooting % don't significantly increase. Personally I beleive Hood will be a great scorer but may need a few more years to develop, in this instance we may end up with a great scorer at a cheap price or a significant trade piece.

Its on Hood to perform, especially in his contract year but it can work for the Jazz either way.

Rubio the future??
Give me a break.

There should be a public poll on Exum. Would love to know who the homers and the haters really are

You are a homer and almost everyone else is sane, reasonable.

This is the Hood moving forward, I say no also to his bad health.

Exam sadly is overrated and mediocre at best, most jazz fans judge him with our hearts but if we did so with our brain we would know we made a mistake in the draft selecting him so high.

Hood is more injury-prone than Dante. He gets injured from the slightest contact; Dante's injuries were the result of severe stresses and contact. Also, his inconsistency seems to have worsened. If we had the Hood who scores at will 90 percent of the time, he'd be an All-Star, but that Hood only seems to emerge about 10 percent of the time.

The way things look now is that we have two stars: Gobert and Mitchell. Ingles has become probably the fourth best player on the team. It seems it comes down to keeping Rubio or Dante. Can we keep them both? Should we? I like the vets Joe Jesus and Sefolosha. The rest of the team needs to be evaluated for possible moves. Definitely need a young stretch 4 to pair with Rudy. Favors has definitely peaked and may never again be more than an average player -- or perhaps the evolution of the game with the emphasis on the 3-pt shot has turned him into an average player.

You are absolutely right.

In my opinion, you keep Gobert, Mitchell, Rubio, Exum, Ingles, Bradley, Jerekbo and Udoh. Everybody else is expendable if it gets us a good piece.

I get this view.
But I also wonder if this view is logical or that rational.
But I am not going to reiterate the defense for Dante. For those like MVP who dismiss him as junk, or you as overrated might be right. I for one think you are wrong, and my main point is you should hope you are wrong too. Cause the Jazz are clearly a few pieces away from being a serious contender.

No Thabo? I think he is more valuable than Jerebko or Bradley.

I'd rather keep Exum than the others. Always been a Exum homer, never been an uber Hood fan. Not interested in paying Favors, he's still trying to figure out what his role on an NBA team is in his eighth season.
