Al Jefferson? 

Post#1 » by tatertotsnjuice » Sat Dec 31, 2011 6:46 am

Hey guys Jazz fan here. I know you guys have been looking for some low post help and seeing if Al Jefferson would be a good fit for you guys. We're ready for a youth movement of Favors and Kanter and I think Jefferson would work well with Dalembert and back with Mchale. So the trade I was thinking would be Utah getting Thabeet and Hill with you guys getting Jefferson. That works in the trade checker.


Or think of another trade that works. Good luck this season.

i don't mind sucking

package that and trade for a star and use cap space to sign another star

Not sure if that helps the Rockets or not but I would not want Morey to help the Jazz in anyway. With Maxrider on this sucking and getting a high lotto pick. Also more into moving Scola and Martin

A Scola for Jefferson trade might be interesting.

I'd do this trade in a heartbeat. JHill reached his potential. Thabeet is a bum too. For a proven low post scorer that is athletic-Al Jefferson. Dalembert is too old and he moves like a dinosaur. Which is a shame, 3-4 years ago he was still ballin.

I really don't get why the jazz would even think of doing that so it doesn't matter......

Al Jefferson is at his peak too and he is holding that 15 millions salary cap next year

ehhh Al isn't exactly "athletic" and is a ballstopper. Funny considering how high I was on landing him last summer :oops: .

Jefferson is not looking to bad right now but that would make us better and I don't want that

Yea I don't think I would offer this trade anymore, Jefferson is coming on strong. Just took a few games to find his shot.
