Checking out NBA tweets on Twitter in August can lead you to some interesting tweets. I found these

Google Translation:
Chicago Bulls vs Utah Jazz reportedly trying to negotiate swap. During the meeting, the names of players: Joakim Noah and Al Jefferson.


Looking forward to seeing a translation from someone who actually speaks Turkish..
 
I'd be thrilled if we pulled this off. Noah is overpaid imo but the Favors/Noah combo at the 4/5 along with solid defenders in Hayward and Marvin would totally change the complexion of our team and be exciting as hell to watch. Re-signing Millsap would not be so likely though I think.

Holy cow. If we could trade Al for Noah it would be the steal of the century. We would be so much better.

I'd hope he could rub off on Favors too...add just a little swagger and more relentlessness to his game. Take pause too though. He has 4 years and about 53M left on his deal which would really tie our hands.
 
today, i'd rather have joakim than al.

at 30 minutes to the february trade deadline, i'd rather have al's expiring than jo and his 4 & 50M.

not sure where i land.

True.

I don't think there is an ounce of truth to it anyways. Bulls would be stupid to trade Noah. Even with Rose they wouldn't be anywhere near the team they are. They have to keep him. He has to be second behind Rose in priority.

If we did trade for Noah it would mean good bye to Paul. I would be ok with that. I'd rather have a Favors Noah combo. It works better. Favors can play the 4 like he wants to and everyone is happy.
 
A Favors/Noah frontcourt does sound nice on defense, but our offensive would certainly drop. Then the length of the deal is scary. I really have no strong feeling either way on this one.

So we would need to design some soft of a balanced offense? And perhaps even execute it? Sounds like anti-Jazz basketball, agree.

First one says "Sources say that teams are talking for Al Jefferson-Joakim Noah trade."

Second one says the same "According to rumors, Chicago Bulls and Utah Jazz are talking for a trade. It's a about Joakim Noah and Al Jefferson."

I've searched both in Turkish and English and couldn't find who the hell are so called sources. Not one legitimate source. Only hypothetical discussions on some forums and some websites.

Edit: My first job in the morning(05:00 am) was checking up the Jazzfanz, and I see you desperately need me guys.:cool:
 
Here is the original source:

https://www.nbatrky.com/nba-al-jefferson-joakim-noah-takasi-mi-geliyor-t355531.html

According to sources, the Utah Jazz and Chicago Bulls are in the midst of negotiating a trade; one source maintains the swap, should it not come unglued, has Al Jefferson and Joakim Noah as the centerpieces. Al Jefferson would head to the Bulls, and Noah to the Jazz.

Rose's injury problems have complicated scoring matters with the Bulls and getting a well regarded post player in Al Jefferson helps solve the issues. Al Jefferson's offensive production last season proves this.

Rose has the ability to score by himself though. He is the first option for the Bulls. His injury early in the playoffs had the Bulls sweating during them. Rose's exact timeframe to return remains unclear, but he might have to settle for being the second option until he gets back to full strength.

Favors, Enes, and Millsap are left to provide the post prescence for the Jazz. Scoring has never been the issue, defense has. Noah helps in this regard.
