Jefferson needs to go now.

[ack]

Wilson Chandler? Utah has Marvin.

Jefferson should stay, Millsap needs to go.

Kanter is a center.

Kanter is Power Forward.

[Johnny Firpo]

In today's league, he's a center, and probably a dominant one in 1-2 years. The rebounding is already there. They gotta unleash the beast imo, it's a no brainer. The guy showed he's dedicated with that body transformation, and he is skilled as well. It's not like Jefferson is a guy like Dirk for example, who you can just retool around, and give it another try. The Jazz needs that franchise guy, and Kanter might be that down the road. Prolonging his development doesn't make sense.

[No-Man]

Kanter can rise like Love did when Jefferson left Sota, and you know that, so just trade Jefferson and a perimeter player, most likely Foye/Watson, for something like Kevin Martin+a pick (maybe Dallas protected one that Houston have).

[TooBigYo]

Imagine the front court rotation if Jefferson was gone: Favors 32 Millsap 30 Kanter 28 Evans 6.
It doesn't even matter who you start as long as favors is one of them. Another advantage is being able to play three main pieces in any combination because of favor's versatility as big man. We have shown so far that the Jazz should be a running team, and Jefferson inhibits that identity. Kanter has shown he is prepared for big minutes, so all the other pieces are falling into place. It just makes too much sense.
