Kosta

I'd take a trade of Kosta plus two mid first's, a TPE, and a 2nd rnd pick for Al.

That's really what the question should be.
 
Finally some credit for Koufos in this forum....he has improved a lot in the last 2 seasons...

Koufos is practically untouchable because of how good his contract is. I have always thought he got a raw deal here.

Koufos is good. But having both him and Enes is meaningless. Or is it come to think of it?

This can cause another war in the Aegean. I also heard of the Jazz receiving blame for Koufos putting on too much weight... That's a lame excuse imo. Should learn how to work your game into your body.
 
KK is really surprising me with the year he is having. I honestly thought he would be out of the league, or the 12th man on a team by now due to his lack of confidence combined with his below the rim play.
 
bring this recalcitrant "boom bitches" boy back.
serve him and Enes the Underkanter, enough quantities of musakka to go along with cold raki/ouzo;
then let them perform some zeybek/sirtaki.
peace everybody
 
This goes back to time machine time. KK was traded in the Big Al trade along with a boat load of draft picks. That was the year Boozer and KK jumped ship due to free agency and I think KOC was freaking out. KK had a good Orlando Summer League that year and maybe might have been MVP of the league. It was Maynor's draft year and then he got moved. To be fair Minnesota didn't want him and seems to me shipped him to Cleveland who then shipped him to Denver. It just seems if we had stayed the course we would have had KK and the draft picks for less money than Big Al.
 
Burying a promising and producing 19-year old rookie because he was sometimes out of defensive position, didn't know the offense pat, and wasn't a good passer in favor of playing a guy that only knows defensive positioning but couldn't and didn't produce at all is paying huge dividends now. Great job, Jer.
 
In hindsight and because of the loss of Deron, Sloan, and Memo, 2 first round picks and Koufos for Jefferson seems like a lot. I wouldn't do that trade again, knowing what I know now. But, I am saddened that Utah never got to really try the trio of Jefferson, Williams, and Memo. I think that could have been one of the best Big 3s in the league at that time. In the playoffs, especially, PFs would guard Memo and Centers were on Boozer. With Jefferson that would no longer be an advantage for the defense.

Can you think of a worse defensive frontcourt? And what of Jefferson completely wrecking the Jazz offense? Besides, Memo just tore his achilles, planning on him coming back at full strength or at all would've been a bad bet. I'm pretty sure the Jazz grabbed Jefferson specifically because they felt they didn't have a C (hence, replacing Memo).
