I just posted this on Chicago's Real Gm Forum and will be interested to see what they say: "Jazz fan here: Rodney Hood, Alec Burks, Trey Burke, GSW 17' pick in a good draft, 18' Okc pick For Jimmy Butler Why for Jazz : get eastern all star wing Why for Bulls: get a up and coming wing starter...

I love Trey Burke but have never thought he was going to be a top 10, let alone a top 25 PG in the league. Don't get me wrong, I am not in a rush to sell him off, but I also think his value is more likely to go down this year than up. Also, lets not get carried away with talk of why would you...

Take Embiid at #5 is a no brainer: Why? Because you keep all of your assets and you move back in to the top #11. I would call Sacramento and offer them #23 and take on all $16.8M in expiring contracts (D. Williams, J Terry, Outlaw, Reggie Evans) That way Sacramento has max cap space to go...

Sacramento is said to be looking for veteran help. Well, what about giving them that help in the form of the cap space to do it. (This deal could be agreed to before the draft but not completed until July 1 because our actual cap space doesn't open up until then) I would take on all $16.8M of...

I will do anything to get Joel Embiid. I love Favors... he could be Horford some day. I like Kanter, he could be 70% of Kevin Love. I like the picks we have stockpiled.... but Embiid is the only player who could be a top 5 player in the league. My best offer for Embiid from hopefully...

The Jazz needs talent. They need top ten Talent top 20 Talent and top 50 Talent. We may not have any players right now on our roster including Hayward and favors who are in the top 40 or 50 in the league. So hypothetically, if Milwaukee slips to number 4 would you trade Kanter & Burke For the...

Instead of using our $20M or so in cap space this year to get a couple lower picks I say we go after Paul Pierce or Ray Allen or both if they will come. Ray Allen I think has one foot into retirement while Paul Pierce is likely going to try and swing his way to the Clippers on the MLE. I think...

With Kawai now injured, now is the time for the Jazz to move and get San Antonio's pick. They will slip if they don't fill his shoes. The deal is there and is taylor made: We get their pick and they get: Brandon Rush a perfect 3 & D candidate. I would rather send Rush but the salaries don't...

They will take him and never look back. He is the next Hakeem! All other players are secondary. HE is the best prospect since Durrant and Lebron. Period!!!!!!!!!!!!! The guy is a freak!

I have seen enough to make a couple predictions. Embiid will go #1 If the jazz get the #1 pick they take him and with him will eventually win a championship. He is that good!

Marvin Williams (27 yrs old, 40% from three) to Memphis for Tayshawn Prince (33 yr old 26% from 3) We take on next years contract and likely buy him out for $3.7M of his $7.7M contract next year. We get their pick top 8 protected this year. It could be a lottery around #10-#12. Marvin is one...

Trade Marvin to OKC for the Kendrick Perkins Contract. That should net us the Dallas Pick at the very least if not 2 picks: The OKC one this year with a swap of a future 2nd rounder either from Denver or the W's. Taking on that albatross is huge for them. It also frees up space under the...

Has anyone signed him. He had a ton?of potential at one point and never had any coaching. He may be the next Stromile Swift, but I am surprised no one has mentioned him since he was amnestied by Charlotte. I remember a couple years ago that the Jazz liked him, but at least he would be a cheap...

I think the Jazz are going to let the season develop and look to add a 1st round pick from any team willing to give one up. The one that I had mentioned in other posts that I thought might be available was the 2014 Indiana pick because they have a real window this year to go for a championship...

I say they should be 4 years at $10/$7 respectively but will be $12.5/$9.5 per year.

It should have been Shroeder! I think he is a future star. It wasn't just his athleticism, it was his instincts and defensive prowess. Schroeder #14 and Gobert #21 was the route to take. We may not see it for 3-5 years but talent and athleticism will eventually win the day. Don't get me...

My concern: People all week have been making excuses about Burke saying lots of people struggle in summer league with shooting and go on to great careers, and conversely some players play great and then never see the court. This is true, but the lack of athleticism of Evan Turner was a leading...

If this is true this would be a good move to take one last player into our cap space. Although I am sure Minnesota wants something for him... maybe a 2nd rounder. We'll see. I would also be okay bring back Tinsley (even though I preferred Watson) or signing Lucas. Thoughts?

We take on the contracts of Granger/Green & 1st rounders 2014 & 2016 Indian only does this if they have prearranged this trade with the Jazz & They have prearranged the signing of OJ Mayo 4/$32 & Carl Landry 4/$25 Sure they give away picks and a favorite in Granger: But we take on...

The more I look at mock drafts the more I worry about one team and one team only taking him ahead of us and that is Dallas. So we trade #14 & #21 to OKC for #12 & #29. Dallas may end up taking a Euro to stash, but its likely that they select a PG and with their deep international scouting...
