That is the best line up i have seen posted TDiddy. I still think we need to make a trade to spark this team and give them life. However that line-up has five people that i think are going no where. Watson and Dwill provide a double passing threat, as well as good perimeter defense. Ak coming off the bench allows the jazz to have a passer on the floor when RP comes in.

I just don't like any lineup that has Deron playing anywhere but the point. You don't take a top three player at any position and tell them they're being moved, unless its a totally interchangable position.

Derons attitude stinks a bit right now. He's not playing his best ball right now. That being said, he's a top 3 PG.

Who wants to go back to losing the PG position battle every night ala the Palacio-Mcleoud days?

Not I, said me.

I definitely see your point. Deron has said he enjoys playing off the ball with Watson at PG, but he probably wouldn't be warm to the notion of starting the game that way.

I still think you have to consider it, since Watson's one of the only guys (Hayward being another) acting like he cares, and the only guy who consistently pushes the ball (despite Deron's ad nauseum claims that he wants to run).

And I see YOUR point... I just don't relish the thought of teams PG's torching us every night. Watson TRIES hard, but damn- I TRY hard at everything I do and it doesn't make the failures any less failed.

Maybe his effort and care would be what they need to change the attitudes around the team right now- just not sure I'd be willing to risk a string of 20-10 games from opposing PG's to make it happen.

This lineup would be the best IMO. You could bring in Millsap early for Jefferson if you wanted but he needs to start coming off the bench again, he has shown he can't handle a whole season at the starting 4. Bell just needs to get out of the starting lineup, he has no business being in there right now.

Okur spreads the floor nicely for Jefferson to do his work, Hayward does everything Bell does but better and it gives him plenty of experience, he also makes the lineup really, really tall/long. And AK stays where he belongs.

We also get way more white which is always a plus for the Jazz....

Rotation would go:
Deron/Watson/Price
Hayward/Price/Bell
AK/CJ/Evans/Millsap
Jefferson/Millsap/Elson/Evans
Okur/Elson/Jefferson/Fes
Jerry Sloan >>>>>>>> Everything else.
