Humphries seems like the perfect prototypical Jazz player.
Would the Jazz trade their trade exemption for Humphries?

We traded him away because he was too selfish for Sloan's system...

He's the prototypical Jazz draft pick, but not prototypical Jazz player.

By prototypical I think you mean white.
Good point!
Our trade exemption is white though so we'd like to hold onto that. Why don't you take Millsap and the 76% of Deron that's black off our hands though? We'll hold onto white Deron and pair him up with Humphries for that killer 1-2 vanilla punch we so desperately need.

That actually made me laugh out loud..literally.
I think Humphries is one of the best examples of a player who just doesnt fit our system. He has however been a serviceable rotation big on the three teams since he left the Jazz and deserves to be in the league.
http://www.basketball-reference.com/pla ... hkr01.htmlSo maybe we didnt give him enough time (supposedly judge rookies after three years, which is why I still have hope for Koufos, well atleast one more year of hope anyway) but we have been down that road before and the only Humphries ever comes back to the Jazz in a trade is to balance the salaries out.

I heard on the radio one time that Humphries wasn't committed in the locker room or to basketball in general. I heard he was more of a ladies man who loved the social life the NBA brought rather than the opportunity.

We once traded him for Rafael Araujo...and didn't regret it. RAFAEL ARAUJO. That's how much the Jazz org thinks of him.

Humphries was the anti-Hayward pick.
An athletic freak with a ten cent brain.
