Does Lacob think this is the NFL?
If he thinks a top-10 pick pick is worth only a late 1st and a couple of seconds then, as my mom used to say...he's got another think coming.
Now is a good time to deal, though. He desperately needs some good PR after the debacle at the Mullin ceremony.

New Orleans Jazz move to Salt Lake City!
The Berlin Wall fell.

So I need an etiquite ruling here. Since this topic was covered in another thread, is this thread only for mocking the OP or can I, er uh.... another poster speak about the topic?
Because if we could speak about the topic I would point out that conditions on a pick can be altered, and if the Jazz alter the conditions of the GS pick and the Warriors are willing to pay an additional 1st round pick and a couple of 2nd round picks and the Jazz would still have claim on a future conditional pick, that would be a steal of a deal. But I won't say anything like that if it is bad form.

It would be crazy to turn down Curry for a potential pick, even with his ankle issues. Jazz could amnesty Harris for cheap. He's only owed another $8.5mm and someone would claim him on waivers for at least a couple mill.
Jazz are at $52.8 next year without any cap holds. Subbing Curry's salary for Harris' and they'll have another $4.6mm cap room. Cap should be roughly $60mm next season so that's enough to add another piece, if necessary or available. Or just bank the money in preparation for a title run in 2014 beyond.
Curry............
Burks..............
Hayward............ Screw the pick
Favors............
Kanter..........
The birthing was also blessed by DutchJazzer, and they hire NAOS as a babysitter.

Sorry if I offended, Bodhi and Zulu. I'll delete my post
I don't understand how the warriors "And nearly toppled the Jazz in Round 2! (Sooooooo close … I'm still shaking my head.)". It was a 4-1 series.

Yeah, it was a little hiccup in an otherwise great read. He fudged the facts for dramatic effect - which casts doubt on the rest of it, but the guy can spin a great article. I love Bill Simmons.
I haven't read the article, but games one and two were REALLY close. If they win one game in those first two, everything about that series changes.
There was a crucial call late in game 2 I think where Fisher flopped and got a call that could have easily been a shooting foul. That win would have very likely given GS the series.

Back on topic -
If the Jazz do end up with both GSW's pick AND their own pick this year maybe the Jazz can trade their own pick (pick 14 probably) + Harris (or whatever) for Curry + whatever. Maybe squeeze one of their second rounders out of them.
Jazz are in the driver's seat, so screw Lacob.
