Millsap for Bledsoe?

I am not into this if the Jazz have to include a first-rounder. Maybe I'm nuts.

Would that really stop you from making the trade? As I see it, Bledsoe has quite a lot of upside, we'll get a whole year to evaluate him before an extension, and we don't get too young (which IMO is actually a danger if we don't bring back a couple of vets, not trying to go full Wizards here) like we might with 2 more 19-21 year olds.

I wouldn't mind Millsap/1st/Filler for Bledsoe/Filler. Worst case scenario you can flip Bledsoe at the trade deadline in a year if he doesn't fit with the culture of the team or you want to go a different direction. The roster would also be balanced enough that the Jazz could truly take the best player at any position in the draft.
 
Isn't this really just an ESPN generated speculation? I mean it's fun but there's nothing behind it right

BRO, did you not see that PKM texted him and he responded "no comment :)". Something is going down and it's making him happy/erect/maybe he is just stoned.
 
For what it's worth, Bill Riley said he spoke with an NBA source who believes this has a 60% chance of happening. That's a lot higher than I figured. I think the Clippers will hold out in hopes of landing KG and if they can't pry him away from the C's they'll take this deal.

Who is Bill Riley? Is that Pat Riley's drug addicted son?

Thats how I feel. Good post. Throwing in a late first is nothing to land Bledsoe
 
I don't mind the Jazz throwing one of their picks to the Clippers provided they can make it so it's the lower of the two, and if the pick goes to next year if the Warriors somehow make it into the top 7 or whatever the protection is.
 
Heat check. Does this thing have legs? Front page on espn and realgm all day. Usually you don't see a silly rumor hanging around espn this long right? I want this done now!
 
Usually if its leaked the Jazz pull out. You never hear a rumor with the Jazz that actually goes down. Well lets just say it's rare.
 
The Utah Jazz have emerged as the potential third team in the Los Angeles Clippers' ongoing trade discussions to acquire Lamar Odom from the Dallas Mavericks, according to sources close to the process. Sources told ESPN.com the Jazz are willing to take on Clippers guard Mo Williams in a three-team trade scenario that would send Odom to the Clippers and enable the Mavericks to shed Odom's salary without taking back any.

Marc Stein and Ramona Shelburne are the two people who also reported this rumor, just saying.

The fact of the matter is that MOVES HARDLY GET MADE ANYWHERE OR AT ALL.

Here's a small list of things that leaked then happened:
-Brewer for a pick.
-Al for TPE + scraps.
-Mo.

The idea that KOC will not make a move he was interested out of nothing but spite is completely asinine.

Completely truth.
 
What are the trades that got leaked that didn't happen? Al Jefferson to Spurs doesn't count because it didn't say the Jazz have mutual interest.
