Remind me again how we get a consistant sixth man of the year candidate, a sometimes-allstar and a solid bench player for the shell of Okur and Andrei Kirilenko's evil twin from a parallel universe.

I'm going to give this trade a big thumbs up! Unfortunately I'd have to wash my thumb because it would be going straight up Atlanta's rear.

I would love to see a trade to get a better SG, but on ESPN Insider other GMs claim that Utah is not trading they are standing pat. I guess they still want to see what this team can do.

Yeah, cause they look totally radical right now.
I LOVE our testicleless organization!

Yes, giving away all your belongings for pennies on the dollar in a panicked frenzy is totally hard core. You should go into the stock market. Buy high! Sell low!

Give up some belongings now to keep the big elephant in the room named Deron from walking later...
I'd do it.
I'm not a blow-up the team guy- you know this, or should- but I am a guy who likes to see the organization cares and right now, I don't see that at all.
Its not going to take our entire future to upgrade Raja.

We've been waiting for so long to be done with AK's deal yet people seem to be dying to replace him with another player with a long ass contract and decreasing numbers.

I would love this deal, except that it makes us very heavy at the 2-3 and very thin at the 4-5. Plus, there is no way in hell it would ever happen to begin with.

Everyone is talking about Blockbuster trades for big names/contracts. There are a lot of players in the league who would be an upgrade over Raja at this point. Players like Afflalo, and GSW's Reggie Williams. Those are the players the Jazz need to push for. Not Rip, AI2, Monta Ellis, etc.

Both Crawford and AI2 are on the market Philly is wanting to have money why would they not want AK expiring deal? AI2 would be the perfect player to run and gun with D Will half of Stockton's dimes came from Malone running his a** off down the floor we dont have a player on this team who runs the floor
Crawford wants a extension ATL doesnt have the $$ to pay him after giving Joe Johnson all the $$ last year they would move him for a player like Okur to move Horford to the 4 maybe throw in a draft pick...
The Jazz need to make some kind of deal to improve this team if they ever want to win a championship.... They have the 17-18 million dollars in AK to do it this year that a lot teams want KOC needs to pull off a deal... We always look at what other teams do its time Utah does something!!

Jazz have to give up something that other teams want. I am not so sure they have that outside of Deron and to a lesser degree Paul M.
It takes two to tango. Just because the Jazz want to do it, doesn't mean that other teams want to.

I would trade Millsap for one of the two. Preferably Iggy.

After watching tonight's game, they are foolish if they stand pat. How excited can you get about a team that is hitting their longest road losing streak in 6 years, who nearly gave up 90+ points and falling behind the Lakers by 30 after 3 quarters, and are doing their best to build up the footage for their opponent's highlight reels.
If they are standing pat, they had better have plans to make some offseason moves. I've thrown in the towel and had to turn off that Laker game. Too painful....

I'd like to see it too. I'd love to see the FO do something that looks like a gamble. Unfortunately, I don't believe the ownership or Sloan would allow it. I actually think KOC would be for it, but his hands seem to be tied.

Why would Hawks do that? They don't need Memo. They need Crawford. Hawks won't do this.
