It's a 45M dollar loss, but the Jazz should really just cut Mike, I mean they wasted about the same amount on Grosstertag. And I liked the idea of Mike and was for the trade since Rubio was not going to get us anywhere. But, I was so over it before trade deadline, had admitted I was wrong, and was hoping they would do something since it was obvious that it just wasn't a fit chemistry/defense wise. If they keep him this whole year, it might end up costing them Mitchell. It's already going to be tough due to the draw of brighter lights. If Mike got released, I think it would help Joe who started unbelievably slow and faded. What would really help Joe though, is earning his 15M by working in the offseason to stay in shape, maybe even do a plyometric or two to increase his otherworldy 2" vertical, so that he actually has enough gas to try for the occasional rebound. It's possible Golden State will have a better record than Utah post AS break if this freak show continues.
