23.1 points, 7.0 rebounds, 4.1 assists, 1.9 steals, a 55.7% TS%, and 86.0% from the line with 6.5 attempts per game with virtually no one around him is a mess? Okay.

Gordon bodies him in nearly every matchup between the two.

Gordon has never outscored Paul George in Pacers-Jazz games. Paul George has averaged 21 points on 61% TS against the Jazz.

But...Hayward shoots a 1.5% higher FG% and 0.8 less turnovers per game so that makes him hands down better than Paul George. b-line and Cy will back me on this.

George is probably a better bet to wow someone, but he has been inconsistent this year. He might get back to where he was pre-injury, maybe not.
Hayward is pretty damn consistent.
Ok, Numb, I thought Chicago should have blown it up last season and given the Jazz a shot at s-n-t Butler. I don't know how that path is not more obvious now than ever.
Gasol - unrestricted, he is going to another contender (he should save his knees and retire to the recliner)
Noah - past his prime, unrestricted, going to another contender or hitting the Joakim Sofa
Rose - give up on the poor guy already. I bet Brooklyn Hammocks would take him for a dime bag.
Butler is the only thing Chicago has, but they also have (had) just enough to not rebuild. I would throw the farm of draft picks at a combination of Butler and Noah or Gasol s-n-t or even offering to take Rose's contract off their hands.
Here's a feasible contract offer:
Butler for a **** ton of draft picks
combined with a paired trade of
Booker, Pleiss, Burke, Ingles for Rose
Gasol - unrestricted, he is going to another contender (he should save his knees and retire to the recliner)
Noah - past his prime, unrestricted, going to another contender or hitting the Joakim Sofa
Rose - give up on the poor guy already. I bet Brooklyn Hammocks would take him for a dime bag.

Ehhh. Rule #1 is do a damn good job. Rule #2 is be real about it. But keeping it in-house is simultaneously important.
But then again, he's onto something.
Isn't one of the reasons he might be on the market is he and Rose (or Rose and many players) don't really jive?
I'm obviously not very into Rose.
Anyway, I think you'd have to offer Hood, then. Hood and Favors for Butler and Portis? That still too much? How do the Jazz manage salary if they just take on Butler without sending anyone out? Are they even allowed to?
I don't know. Something would have to give on salary eventually, but if they would just take a platter of picks, hell yeah I guess. Except, how does Boston not outspend us with that specific resource?
