Go GET Teague

[Siro]

We have another case of "I can only remember last few games" in this thread. Booker couldn't hit a layup for about half a season. He was a complete liability whenever he entered the game. Just because he's had a few decent games recently doesn't make him integral to the team.

If someone is actually advocating that we are better off going into next year with Exum/Neto/Burke than with Teague/Exum/Neto how is that person even worth arguing with? It is honestly one of the most stupid arguments I can think of in a long history of terrible arguments on this board.

Not to mention Teague could totally spark us the second half of the season and give us a chance to do some damage in the playoffs.

This. Those opposed are blowing my mind.

Booker's attitude and energy are more valuable than his actual play. Thankfully, he helped set the tone for the team during the Kanter mess. Since then, we've seen a noticeable increase in attitude from Gobert (who was always feisty), Favors and Hayward. Lyles, Burks, Hood, Exum and Neto are all pretty chill guys, but I think the confidence of the big three infects them as well.

You probably thought this was some awesome analogy. But the Jazz aren't a ****ing cake. How about instead you just explain how a very good PG who was an all star last year could come onto our team which has some of the worst PG play in the league, and he'd be a detriment to our success.

Because. Exum is the crowning jewel of this rebuild. By adding Teague u run the risk of ruining Exum. Taking years of contention off of this rebuild which has been taking place since Williams was traded. Maybe he doesn't build those leadership qualities like he should've and is only a good not great because of it. Most important... Hayward and the rest of the team have built a relationship with Exum and maybe believe in him where as Teague is a hired gun and quite frankly not as good as u think he is. This is pure speculation, but maybe Hayward leaves because the Jazz traded for Teague and didn't show faith in Exum. This is just like u speculating that Hayward is going to leave if we don't get Teague. Another point is that Hayward knows they are in a rebuild, but he and others on the team have said and recognize they feel they are a part of something that they think will be special, and they want to see this through. We've already seen evidence of this.

Both Favors and Burks signed team friendly deals. Burks excepted a bench role and to my knowledge hasn't complained. There is amazing chemistry on this roster. I wouldn't be so eager to speculate that we can't keep Hayward.

Who says that he doesn't quit on the team as soon as he's put literally in the same position with Exum competing for minutes and Teague getting increasingly unsure if he wants to stay in Utah long term.

So what if teague does end up having a problem with his situation next year competing with Exum for minutes? Then we just bench his *** or trade him for garbage and we roll with exum and neto with a little alec sprinkled in at point guard.
No big deal.

Me too.
I mean if all you are giving up are guys like burke and booker then I can't see how there is any downside

No, you really don't

Actually this trade has been being talked about four weeks now by lots of people. Not just one dude yesterday

Then why do we need him in the first place?

Because there is dude named Exum that has an injured knee right now


And that dude might not be any good

Maybe, but I'm not risking it, plus the Jazz are doing much better without Teague and we will be completely healthy minus Exum of course.

Maybe I see more potential with Exum then others do. I think his absolute ceiling is HOF caliber type player. I'm very guarded as to making moves that could potentially affect Exum's career and think the Jazz org should be too.

I just don't see Teague putting the Jazz over this hump everyone keeps talking about. The Jazz have been at a whole other level since just after Favers came back. Teague is a huge unnecessary risk. The Jazz will only continue to improve when Burks gets back to anchor the second unit plus the Jazz getting back to last years level of defense in the second half of the year with more fire power. We will be fine and winning games with no Teague.

Let's say Exum is going to be the greatest player of all time. Why not have teague instead of trey burke with exum?

With all due respect is at the end of the day is your opinion, and not fact.

Well sure, no one can predict anything. I still have not seem a reason why hanging teague ruins exum though

How do you know this since the jazz have never had teague? Maybe with teague they would be the 5th seed right now

Poorly phrased. Mean they are doing just fine at the moment without Teague.

You are acting like aquiring teague somehow = losing exum.
We can have, and play both.

You replace burke with teague not exum.

Do people actually think burke = teague
