How do you know that? Is there an insider among us?

but why would they want Sap for a 1/2 rental?
seems like we'd either have to throw in a pick ourselves, or take on Barg's gross contract.

Keep Al.
Trade Millsap for Lowry or Calderon, picks on either side for balance.

1/2 year rental is not really the attraction. Big Al is valuable as a salary dump (Bargs, in this case.)
I'd have more faith in a chance (key word - chance) of reforming someone like lowry if JSlo was still on board. No confiddence in TCo on that front. But my small view of lowry is that he's a good athlete, but bad team basketball player, and probably JSlo would just clash with him.

It's sad we are clamoring to get someone else's garbage like this. All the Jazz front office has been planning for the last few years has been to have outrageous cap space when the punitive luxury tax kicks in. Adding anyone who isn't a star or good young prospect, just doesn't make sense. Especially when last season would have been a better time to trade guys like Al or Paul. I honestly have no idea what the plan is, but adding mediocre players on 2+ year contracts better not be the endgame.
If the Jazz is looking for an ok PG (Keyword: OK not great, more than serviceable) how about this?

Jazz get Stuckey but get stuck with Villanueva for 2 years. Which is in time to re-sign Favors and Hayward, i think.
Besides when was the last time Jazz have 8 top15 draft pick in a lineup =) That's one more that the Jazz have right now!
Pistons do this for salary dump for the end of the year.

I dont hate this, actually. But, I'd want at least a second-rounder in the deal. I like those early second-round picks.
Draft picks should always be there. How does one include draft picks in the trade machine.
How about this?

Jazz get RAnderson AND KWalker.
Bobcats get an inside and outside operators to break their slide. At the expense of Walker though. But they also get rid of big contracts.
76ers get an additional inside presence just for Richardson.
NOH gets an additional inside presence, and replacements for Gordon who does not want to be there.

For cap space. Gray and Kleiza is not even in rotation for Raptors and Raptors will pay about 7 mil to them for this year and next year. And obviously they dont want to move on with Lowry. Take this contracts and give them a 1/2 contract as a salary dump + a pick maybe.

There is no way Nola would do this.
Maybe. But then again they are at the bottom. These vets may somehow change something. They may not make playoffs this year but at least they will fighting for a win (if that's important to them). And in 2 or 3 years they get rid of these contracts rather than EGordon's 4 years of pouting.
