Thaddeus Young

[Chargers Jazz Angels]

If Thad young was put on the block would he be someone that you would be interested in and what would you give up for him.

3 yrs $26 mil
can't shoot 3s to save his life
not sure how his defense is

very athletic
can play the 3 or the 4
has a decent mid range game
great fg%

Philly will want picks or youth

I am not sold but was wondering what you all thought?

I read this somewhere sometime, but I remember reading this somewhere and it said that Thadeus Young was one of the most efficient players in the entire NBA. Also we need a 3/4.
Doubt we get him tho, the 3 year deal sucks.

I read an article on him a few months ago and it said he played a ton of his minutes at the 4. I'd really like a 3/4 that can shoot the 3 ball. Maybe chandler parsons this next off season. I think he might go for the money, with him being a 2nd round pick

Philly won't do it...They have to meet minimum salaries for the next years, so they basically need him if they don't pay the remaining for his teammates.
They would want assets in return, which none would do, at the same time they wouldn't be willing to include draft picks. They'll have a productive non rookie with him, who'll make the rebuilding look less disgusting while not contributing to too many entries in the W-column. So he'll help attract a couple spectators the first seasons by making what normally would be a 20 point blowout into a not that awful single digit loss at home.
When he's hitting a contract year they'll move him.

I doubt he'd leave Houston when he was the main player recruiting Dwight to come to Houston. The only way that would happen is if Dwight causes major problems and the team decides to stick with Howard anyway.

It seems to me like the Jazz aren't ready to buy young talent yet. I think they're waiting for after next year's draft to see what direction to go. If they don't get the player they want then I expect them to be very aggressive on the trade market next Summer.
