Rubio traded to Jazz

[Spinoza]

I think Jazz are still going to be working hard to bring Hill back. Ricky Rubio is a damn good insurance piece and signals to Hayward that the Jazz are serious about improving.

I wonder how many Jazz fans realize what a good defender Rubio is.

Hayward must have signed off in the trade otherwise why not go for Hill

I don't think Rubio is Hill's replacement. The Jazz needed to get better at the PG spot regardless.

Looks like the Twolves want to pass us next year....

****ing RUBIO? So **** Exum's development AGAIN. ****!!!!

You know **** it all. I just can't right now...

I feel like Im on Clutchfans right now.

I change my take on Hayward staying from 75/25 to 40/60. If he leaves this is on Lindsey.

 

[fishonjazz]

Is this possible due to that unused cap space or whatever?

 

[Ron Mexico]

This is a good trade. I assume more is happening though. Love or Griffin?

 

[Bawse Dawg]

Rubio is more fun, younger, and cheaper than Hill.

You don't think Lindsey has some idea how Hill is leaning or how much he wants?

You think he did this knowing Hayward would be pissed and leave if he did?

Give the front office a tiny bit of credit you guys.

Rubio lobs to Gobert. Gimme

If I'm the Wolves I'm mad that we didn't get more for Rubio. What a deal for Utah, even though I'm not sure I like it yet.

 

[NCJazz]

I don't know. That's got to be why we are doing this, right?

Rubio doesn't really entice Hayward to stay.

Who wants to play with a guy who averages 10 assists a game right?

That's what it was for, yes.

Welcome to team Ricky!

 

[fishonjazz]

Didn't want him but at least we didn't give up much and at least we made a kinda big move that might shut some people up about DL never being aggressive, taking risks or doing anything and sitting on cap space to let it "expire". (Probably won't shut them up though)

I guess since he is here I might as well focus on the positives. Great defense. Best passer in the nba. Good contract. Still in the early part of his prime (I think). Probably help increase pace and transition points (Burks could benefit from a more run n gun offense)

Looking at the positives it looks good. I'm gonna turn a blind eye to the negatives.

The guy really is a poor shooter from the field but he makes his free throws.

 

[Beantown]

If I am Hayward. I would much rather play with Rubio than Isaiah Thomas.

 

[Spinoza]

Yeah, this sounds like Hill is gone. I don't see us bringing him back now.

Why?

 

[Shad]

Good bye Hill and Hayward!! We'll miss you guys!

Good trade IF something else happens.

Yes, the PG situation had to be addressed. George Hill would have dragged it on another week.

Now the Jazz can make another move.
