Punch Bowl Re-Filler
True dat. But I'm actually pretty encouraged right now. Jazz were playing like crap BEFORE the trade. Now we have Favors AND a top-6 pick (hopefully it remains in that range). And if the Jazz miss the playoffs, having an extra draft pick may very wll help in trading for a veteran wing.Explains almost every game this whole season. We like 6 nice pieces maximum and the rest is garbage.
Jefferson, Favors and Millsap is a pretty good rotation at the 4/5. Throw in Okur if healthy. Maybe even Tomic, although I think he stays in Europe one more year if Okur can play next season.
Harris and Watson is a decent combo at PG next season.
AK probably gets re-signed. CJ is a serviceable backup, as is Hayward.
We'll have NJ's pick and probably our own (in the 13-14 range) to address the wing positions. A good, young one will be available such as Barnes or T. Jones. I could even see Utah going after a guy like Kanter. You can never have too many guys to play the 5.
Favors and Hayward are only going to get better. Throw in a lottery pick, and a likely trade for a veteran wing (or maybe the Jazz even using the MLE) and the team should be much improved next season.
