Rumor about Clippers Jazz trade. unlikely.

I’m of the belief that where there’s smoke there’s fire because the fact of the matter is the Jazz need a starting point guard to add to their young core. Another player that the Jazz could have some interest in is DeAndre Jordan. He is a young, athletic, defensive minded player that can give Derrick Favors some much needed help down low. Eric Bledsoe is scheduled to make $6.35 million over the next 2 seasons and DeAndre Jordan is set to make $22.4 million. In my trade scenario the Jazz would take on the $13.6 million in contracts due to these players next year while sending the 21st pick in this years draft and a future 2nd round pick the Clippers way.

So we get DeAndre Jordan and Bledsoe for a 1st and 2nd?

Hmmm...I like Bledsoe and Jordan will make $12M a year the next 2 years.

The Jazz cannot take on that salary......and Jordan is Duplication for FAvors and Kanter.

We have to have the money to sign our CORE4. I say no.

Do Clippers unload Jordan and his huge contract for not much? I suppose they could find a better player for less than $12M clams.
