Since the 2010 offseason, I kind of agree. I still don't get what the treading water for 2.5 years was about. The only thing the '12-'13 was worth was seeing that Corbin wasn't going to be the guy.

DWill trade, trading up for Burke last year, buying the Gobert pick, Going tank mode last season instead of treadmill mode, OTHER STUFF!!

Ok, point taken. Perhaps it should be phrased differently. I want to see the Jazz have a shot at a consensus elite player for once. The last time they did was for Deron, but Wiggins would be the most highly regarded player ever drafted by the Jazz. Perhaps not the best (hard to get much better than Malone/Stockton), but the talent/athleticism combo that he possesses is phenomenal.

Ya, the more I think about it, F it trade literally EVERY asset for Wiggins if you have to. Get Wiggins and go from there.
 
Bros, I kinda want to watch the USA game at ESA on Thursday but also wanna be able to flip channels to the Ghana game.

The D-Will trade was a defensive move, not swinging for the fences. They didn't want to deal with allah dat.

But the others, yeah. Corbin is a black eye for this franchise though (seemingly no due diligence done on a coaching hire whatsoever [the job was given to Corbin before the 2nd half of that Bulls game, then extended on nothing but faith]).

This is one of the worst myths perpetuated about the Jazz. We have absolutely been a swing for the fences organization the last 5 or so years.

I wouldn't consider the Jeffersonian-Corbinian Middle Ages to be swing-for-the fences years. Not even a little bit.
 
All I gotta say before heading to bed is they better be convinced that Wigg is THAT good. Im on board but still

I don't like it.

My draft board is shaping thus: Wiggins or Gordon.

I have a little more confidence in Wiggins but not so much as to give Burks and Favors. That sucks, I'd rather keep our guys and draft Gordon. He looks like he's fixing his shot. Guy's a stud. I've really fallen hard for him.
 
If we were to have the pick of the litter, I don't know if Wiggins would be the best for us in the long run. You have to think of, who is going to want to come to Utah and want to stay?? I think Parker is the guy. He's talented, athletic and he's Mormon. I'm not Mormon incase your asking but I think you have to look at who will be happy here. Parker is the better fit because it seems that he is not going to get caught up in the stardom temptation if he is as religious as he claims to be. Utah would be a good fit for him! 3.2 % beer, the temple, and the entire state shuts down at 7 p.m. so he would have nothing else to focus on except for basketball!!! Goooooo,,,,, Parker!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It's been said a number of times on here. But seriously Wiggins seems less likely to get caught up in the stardom than parker.
 
If we get the first pick, we should try to land Wiggins. It's also necessary that we find a way to get Jusuf Nurkic in this draft. He could be the next Andrew Bynum, hopefully without the injuries...

Trey Burke
Gordon Hayward
Andrew Wiggins
Enes Kanter
Jusuf Nurkic

Anyway, I still think #5 & Favors & Burks > Wiggins or Parker. I only would trade them for Embiid, but kid looks very injury prone. If he has a chance to become healthy, I'm okey with #5 & Favors & #23 for him but we should keep Burks.

This lineup makes me more excited, but Embiid is way too fragile to trade for him. There is a good chance that he ends like Oden. Most likely not worth the gamble.

Burke - Neto
Burks - FA
Hayward - FA - Evans
Kanter - Nurkic - Evans
Embiid - Gobert

Chad Ford on twitter is having a mock draft with another guy from espn. He had Utah Trade Burke and the #5 to Milwaukee for the #2. Jabari was the pick.

umm yes please. If the Bucks trade us the #2 for Burke and the #5 they will end up in Seattle.
