Please check your fantasies at the door.
Hopefully this post doesn't ruin the thread by talking about the original question of the OP.
.
The answer is no to the trade. The guest on 1280 from USA today talked about Milwaukee and it helped clarify this answer. Look at Milwaukee as the reason (coincidentally ). They acquired players last year that had them buzzing about 50 win season this year. Yet they are 11 games out of .500. This NBA analyst from USA Today had no explanation other than the accquired players don't fit together and I don't think Jabari fits better than hood on jazz. Hood has shown better than Jabari so far. (Jabari injury noted) but is the risk of Jabari,s upside worth the team-fit of hood ? The time to make trades like this proposed trade is after you've seen the full potential of the team and realize a move MUST be made to get a next step.
.
The assumption I have is that Jabari will not become a top 10 franchise player and he will be poor on d forever. I see him sort of like how Carmelo and mcgrady were really good, but not team-changers, just prolific scorers. (Curry is a prolific offensive player but the team is built around what he does and he,s a top 1 franchise player. )

Good stuff guys.
Always nice to wake up in the morning with a laugh
In this scenario how can Hood be our 6th man after being traded to the Buck? Getting Parker meant losing Hood.
so sexy. now THAT is a line up I can get up for.

Parker was the man while they were both in college. Parker has a brighter future, PArker fits into the culture of the city. Would be a fool if you didn't do the trade, but I doubt the Bucks would do anything but laugh at you if you offered the trade.

Quick and serious question...
If all of Jazzfanz all of a sudden started hating on all of the Jazz players, would u become a Jazz fan?? Seriously, I don't think you've said one positive thing about any Jazz player, ever.
Did a Jazz player refuse u an autograph one time or something?

You're ignorant of this city if you really think so.

Lets see I called Hayward a perfect second or third option on a good team, that is not hating just stating facts
I have said positive things about the Jazz you just don't see it

He is Mormon and SLC is the Mormon capital. A lot, not all I understand, but a lot of your fans are Mormons. Or you going to tell me they are not?
