What's new

The Jazz are trading D-Will to New Jersey!?

Everyone on here always throws around hypotheticals and someone prolly did this very hypothetical trade at one point or another. My guess is LifeOnAPlate did not like it when it was suggested


Locke tweeted it on Feb. 4:

"Nets offered Devin Harris, Derrick Favors, and 2 1st round picks for Carmelo - Would you do that for Deron?"
 
Me want see new team in action.

Still, with this development keeping some of these vets around just makes zero sense. Elson, Bell - lets get some more youth!
 
I don't post much anymore, but you are a ****ing moron.

It's apparent the board is of higher intellectual value when you do not post.

You complain that the Jazz don't do anything, then complain when the Jazz do.

I have to credit you with noticing a pattern here, but you need just a little more thought to fully understand it. I complain when Jazz lose quality and I am happy when they get quality. Hence I was unhappy when we lost Wes and Booz, I was happy when we got Al and Hayward, and now I am dejected that we lost the only player that was the superstar, the team cornerstone, on our entire roster. It's not that hard to figure out. I wanted the Jazz to make a move to make up for Wes mistake, such as perhaps use picks and AK for a good player, like Gerald Wallace. I am not at all in favor of making the team a laughing stock of NBA by giving away great player, like Deron. Hopefully, you understand the point now.

Everyone else in the thread is trying to evaluate the trade logically, and you are bitching non-stop.

I did evaluate the trade logically. And the conclusion is that it is a rape in the middle of a bright day. Is it hard for you to fathom that some moves are upsetting and bitching about them does not mean they were not evaluated, but that they were indeed evaluated, but the conclusion of that evaluation is not very favorable to our team?

Why don't you do us all a favor and go root for another team/player?

I wish I can tell you how Deron is garbage and we got such great players. That would make you feel better? Well, that's not going to happen. There is a reason why Deron just made all star team as coach's selection and is widely regarded is top PG in NBA (or top 2 at worst) and Harris was about to be traded for a filler and a late first rounder. Even the picks are not that great, because with Deron Nets are probably going to improve, and even now their pick is at #6. Before the season is over, we might have a #10 overall pick. Basically Gordan Hayward. Same with GSW pick, which is actually worse. And Favors is 6ppg player. Young, yes, but still... And with such one sided deal, we couldn't even get rid of Okur's contract. Jazz were raped pretty hard. It's just the reality of situation.
 
I'm excited about the move. From a purely risk reward ratio I think the Jazz made out pretty well. I'm a big Broncos fan and I see a lot of Jay Cutler in Deron. I loved Derons play but I was really tired of his attitude. Its like breaking up with your hot bat crazy girlfriend. It sucks cause she's hot, but you're better off in the long run.
 
Wait, Borat wanted to get Wallace and hates Okur? They're the same player statistically. Wallace has a much more injury riddled career, too.

EDIT: Jazz had no picks to give, either.

Oh yeah, and the Jazz would likely have to take on a larger financial burden to trade Kirilenko.

Still time. Deadline not til tomorrow. Kind of surprised we did not try to throw Elson in this deal. NJ may have not taken him though.
