Sources: Utah has expressed interest in re-acquring Deron Williams

All's forgiven, great player in his prime, still decent, BUT not a position of need. What happened to all the George Hill love. Won't even ask about the Dante Exum love as that ship sailed around here along time ago apparently. Still, I say trust the process.

Hill injury concerns/ moving on for a huge contract next year, DWill perfect backup plan for both.
 
It only happens if Hayward gets to throw the ball at D Will in a game and look at him in disgust.
 
Honestly, I just don't like how he plays. He's a ball dominant PG who has lost that first step. He was great for us, but we need a streaky shooter like Lou more than Deron.

D-Will's usage numbers were always insanely low for a PG of his caliber/assist/scoring numbers while in Utah.
 
I recently watched the "Deron throwing the ball 'at' Hayward video"

Let's just say it was not as dramatic as I remembered it. I'd call it more Deron throwing the ball to Hayward, and Hayward doing a give and go and scoring on the play.

You can play all three. Each can play PG or SG. Hill and Exum are versatile defensively. They all can play on or off the ball to an extent. With the injuries to Hill and Hood it wouldn't be a terrible experiment for the rest of this year. Depending on the price. Odd man out might be Burks.
 
I don't understand all this enthusiasm for the Deron's rumours, he is arriving at the end of his career.

I would prefer to extend Hill rather than bringing Deron back.

The Jazz needs to improve other positions. They need a defensive specialist ( small forward or shooting guard) and a power forward that can shoot! I would say Crowder and Mirotic.

worse things would happen in practice EVERY WEEK ....

btw i've been listening to Mavs podcasts during the season, they are raving about how well he's play this season particularly the last 6-8 weeks

Why does it have to be Hill or Deron?

The offense was stagnant with Deron when he wasnt playing well. In and out of screens before taking ill advised 3's. The guy was good, but I like our fluidity more now. And do you watch Dallas now? Its hard to watch him try to pull strings.

lmao you are hilarious. You really have no idea what you are talking about. You call him ball dominant, but the opposite has been true his entire career. He was one of the best at playing off-the-ball in Utah and he has been playing in multiple PG lineups in Dallas where he is often off the ball.

Now you are saying our offense sucked with D-Will in Utah when he wasnt playing well? Crazy, our offense wasnt great when our best player wasnt playing well sometimes. The same is true of every team ever in the history of the NBA. Dear lord dude, at least come with some points.
