Every one of you would make this trade. You're lying if you say otherwise.

Ya, let's unload a whole bunch of picks only to take on a massive, crippling salary of a youth-hostile has-been when we're trying to develop our own PG.

A no brainer!
 
Ummm. Not just no. . . but Hell No!

Don't want D-Will anywhere near this young team. That's a sure-fire way to kill chemistry. Especially with that salary.
 
Why would we give them draft picks to take on that salary?

Seems like a great trade if your a Nets homer.
 
If Deron is properly repentant of his rock-star ********, then maybe the jazz can go grab him for pennies, IF they need a guard at that time.
 
Who do we need to include to make his massive salary fit? Sorry, I'd keep Booker and whoever else over bringing back Coach Killer. Although I'd LOVE to see Deron get the Quin death stare after refusing to run a play.
 
Obviously a one-sided, NY-loving writer.

Jazz get: 29th pick in 2015 NBA Draft and Deron Williams.

Nets get: 42nd pick in 2015, Jazz's 1st-round pick in 2017, Knicks 2nd-round pick in 2017 (via Utah) and $3 million in cash.

Let's say Utah wanted DWill back... Jazz are doing Nets a favor and giving up way to much. No way the Jazz should be paying $3m in order to save the Nets $43m. If anything it should be DWill + #29 for #42 only.

Either way, salary-wise, I don't think it works as Utah would be too over the cap. Utah would have to include every non-guaranteed deal + Booker, which I wouldn't do. I'd rather have David Lee, Joe Johnson, or Rudy Gay (in that order) if Utah was going to take on a vet with an insane contract.
 
I'm not against bringing DWill back. BUT, I'm not trading for him, nor am I giving away a first round pick, nor am I paying him max money, nor am I giving NJ money for him.

Just wait until he is bought out/stretched. Then give him the mid level.
 
They forgot the part where we get their #1 pick in 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024, 2025, 2026, 2027, 2028, 2029, 2030 and $3 million in cash.

Deron was smart to eventually try something different, rather than to run plays that the other team was smothering on every damn possession, time after time. There are legitimate things that Deron should be criticized for, but that isn't one of them. Jerry Sloan was a great coach at one time, but he was far from perfect, especially in the last few years of his career, in which he failed to adjust his offense when other teams had our number.

What an idiot. So glad this dude has nothing to do with the actual Jazz. He should consider writing for the Kings SB page, he'd be good at it.

So is this team any good? I think so. And, again, in an exercise where I add vets (not what I actually want to do) I was still successful in getting three new rookie contracts that lock in lotto level talent to fill out our bench. And this team challenges for a Western Conference Playoff spot if they stay healthy and play together as a team.
