Is everyone expendable?

I wonder how the jazz draft pick situation, mostly the lack of picks, will impact what the Jazz do.

Why? Anything besides some completely arbitrary non-sense?

Aside from Deron wanting to win a championship? I agree that there is no way to really know, but players have more control and power than they ever have. LeBron, Bosh, Amare, Carmello.....this is turning into the norm.

Why should we just assume that he is going to stay?

By the way, I'm all for a "franchise-tag" in basketball.
 
The Jazz are the worst team in the world on a 4 game skid and the best on a 4 game win streak. This forum is a non stop menstrual cycle.

Honestly, if Deron keeps it up with his attitude towards the team(even on nights where he does nothing to contribute), a lot of people ARE going to see him as expendable. I personally don't, but with the right pieces, even if he were to leave when his contract is up, the Jazz could still be a playoff team, possibly more in the future.

Can you blame Deron for his attitude? This guy puts his entire heart into every game, and he expects the same from the rest of the team. How many times have we seen, Millsap and/or Jefferson struggle and the 1 guy who is there to back them up is Deron Williams. But when he gets into a slump and is struggling, the rest of the team doesnt step up their game, they just expect Deron to become superman and pull them out. Its not always going to happen like that. I think Deron is mad at the fact that there isnt one other person on the team that can step up their game and attack when he happens to have an off game. It should'nt be up to Deron Williams to determine if we win the game or not.

This is the Jazz we're talking about. Major moves are too risky.

This.

We will be lucky to see them make a minor lineup change or modify the standard rotation by a minute or 2.

Never does, eh? These players might disagree with you: Boozer, Matthews, Korver, Brewer, Maynor, Harpring, Koufos, Jefferson, Bell, Elson, Hayward, Evans, Watson...

You hurt your point by adding Harpring (he was done, his contract was traded, he never reported to OKC), Hayward (a draft pick being picked? Come on), and Evans ("). But your point is a good one, otherwise.
 
Also, only one of the players in his list was involved in a trade that wasn't a pure salary dump (Big Al). Most of the rest just left as free agents.

It's like claiming you're not lazy because you take a 5 minute break from watching daytime TV to walk to the can instead of ******** your pants.
