under no circumstances do we want paul pierce

The only way big changes are going to be made and the mistake of reupping Jefferson and Millsap to long-term contracts can be avoided... is if we miss the playoffs.

The Lakers pulled their starters with 2 minutes to go tonight, and down 21. I have to say I love this as a Jazz fan, and I still am hoping we can pick up Pau Gasol... but wow... they are melting down.

I would like to see both Paul and Al shipped out: Paul/Marvin/Raja for Pau and a future 1st unprotected from LAL which I think we could get for that package at this point. Then send Al somewhere for picks... would love to see if Charlotte would part with that Detroit or Portland pick. Then...

I want Pau because it prevents us from re-upping Paul and Al to big money which I think would doom us to mediocrity. I want Pau because I feel he will quickly reestablish his value while we continue to compete. I want Pau because I think it would be good for the young guys to learn from a Hall...

I have been against the consensus that Gasol is done... I watched him at the Olympics and that is not a guy that is done... just a guy that is done with Kobe and all the crap (constantly being blamed and traded or rumored to be traded etc.). I think it is worth going after him because it...

Favors and its not even close.

I think given that this years FA's are so weak with so few names that the lesser teams that need to show their fans that they are doing something will spend some money... But I think with the heavier tax coming next year will cause some serious squeeze on the contract length and size. But as...

I could go with Hickson but I see Portland overpaying to keep him. It is interesting that the league isn't paying for quality 3rd bigs right now. In fact I do worry that Paul will regret not taking that extension last summer... I worry that teams will shy away from his asking price. It amazes...

My preference would be to set up that eventuality now: Trade Paul/Marvin/Raja for Pau Gasol now and hope (but I expect he would return to stud form as the focal point in Utah), and then sign Landry as the back up in the off season. Favors/Landry Gasol/Kanter I feel the young guys need one...

I certainly would miss Millsap, but part of why we love him deep down as GM forum followers is his price tag... I don't want to like him less at $10-$12M per year. I also want to put people in their proper rotation in the basketball universe... and Paul is a great back up but he is just too...

I just averaged the numbers from ESPN and it came to 18.27

Carl Landry it is. He couldn't find a place to land this off season... victim of being a guy who wasn't correctly valued early on by his original team (Houston) and thus was traded and once traded became a vagabond... and I think that is why his value is a little more in the category of Journey...

Given Consensus: Millsap will garner 4 years at $9-$12Million Per, Millsap is a good starter but a great bench player. We would prefer he eventually come off the bench but are worried he won't do it, and we would prefer to pay him $8M per. We may differ a little here but here is what I would...

I am hoping for the injury bug to bight the GSW's, and they end up with the 8th pick this year... then I am hoping either Poythress, Otto Porter are there and end up being the next 8-10 pick to hit in the draft ala Paul Pierce, Paul George, Rudy Gay ... and then seeing Harrison Barnes be nothing...

Send it to him via twitter. He would love it. I live here in KC and my boys went to his camp this summer and my little 4 year old made a homemade Jazz jersey because he was jealous his big brothers had the real thing and got to go to the camp... and he loved it... signed it and took picks with...

The only picks worth getting in the open market right now are the Toronto one or Detroit one. That being said Toronto's will likely be used this year in a weak draft somewhere around 6-9, and the Detroit one has top 8 protection in next years good draft, but will only be #1 protected in 2015...

With the injury to Mo we will no longer make the playoffs. With him we could have got as high as6th . We will make a trade of either Al or Millsap. Biggest surprise has been coaching and managements desire to be mediocre and play and start vets over giving time to Burks and Kanter who actually...

And we are about to get stuck with a 20 something pick in a bad draft. Still wish Stern would have rigged that coin flip and taken care of the Jazz and their Deron Williams trade the same way he took care of Nola when they traded CP3. It was bad for the league for the Warriors to do that... we...

Exactly!
