Will a Trade Get Done?

Will the Jazz make a trade

  • Total voters
    55
  • Poll closed .
Voted yes. Getting my hymnal and bottle of whiskey ready to sing praise to Jesus (or KOC, whatev) and get hammered at any point in the next day or two.
 
No. Clips will want too much leading to no trade and Jazz will let it ride until season ends.

Id rather they didn't make a trade if it means an overpay. If clips want Sap and Burks I'd say eff yourself.

Clips will end up with a worse deal down the road since there aren't many teams in need of a PG.
 
Hate to be a Debbie Downer but I don't see one happening. Bledsoe and/or picks is the only thing I would want that is available. Bledsoe just doesn't seem like the type of pg the Jazz will go after. I think they should do it just for the simple fact they can roll over an asset and not lose it completely. If Bledsoe doesn't work out then they could trade him later. Its worth a shot imo.
 
Raja has to be traded or cut first before Jazz can do any 1 for 2 type trade.
So if that happens in next 40 hours Jazz have another trade coming.
 
I think its Eric Bledsoe or bust.....so I vote no because Clippers will get nervous and won't do the deal.
 
I decided to be bold and vote yes.

If the Clippers want more than just Millsap, then give them a 1st. I doubt the Jazz FO wants to add two more rookies anyway. We've got the assets to spice this deal up, and it looks like the talks with Boston are getting worse and worse.
 
The vibe I'm getting from the clippers side of things is that they don't want to make any moves. Which includes Bledsoe, but that's just GM talk, trying not to leak anything. Most trades leave fans scratching their heads (like how the Dwight saga got Philly and Denver involved).
 
I don't have a ton of faith in the front office to make transactions with a long-term perspective. I voted no.
 
I have been feeling like KOL would stand pat til the summer, but now it feels like something will go down. It may not be earthshattering, but something...
 
I have to vote no. Yet if they somehow pull something off it'll be something no one had preknowledge about.
 
"Sometimes the best move is no move."
"There are lots of phone calls. We listen to a lot of stuff. We won't make a move unless we think it will help the team."
"We're not going to make a trade just to make a trade."

Expect a few variations of the above. Then expect the media to eat it up. Then they'll reference our playoff hunt Then it will be brushed under the rug. Then cue the, "we have a bunch of expiring contracts and we'll make a big splash this summer!" mirage.

The only remote possibility is a Mullsap trade, which would honestly be worse than no move, if for no other reason than it hitches our wagon to Al for the next 5 years.

People are reading too much into these amateur journalist that write for blogs, and because they stood with some of the fans outside the Jazz locker room, namely @Utah_JazzNation and ‏@HaydenCoombs. Those two guys have no credibility, so I think everyone is getting excited over nothing. The Jazz will stand pat because sometimes no move is the best move. They will resign Millsap in the offseason and Favors will start along side Millsap next season, and none of this trade drama will go down, I promise. You're reading too much into these nobodys that are just fans like you and I, that want to see a trade get done but to later get your hopes shot down.
