Trey is not in the rotation. They'd probably love to trade Faried though. Not sure there would be much interest

[QUOTE]Dennis Lindsey got amazing value by trading only what will end up being a late 1st round draft pick for him. [/QUOTE]
We'll see. Denver forced him to shoot 3's. One of the them was as ugly as it gets.
[QUOTE]Curious who here would go for a Rubio for (healthy) Isaiah Thomas trade? [/QUOTE]
I would. IT is an expiring contract

[QUOTE]The Jazz starters need to be able to play the opposing teams starters at least to a standstill, and then their bench will have a good chance to not only break even, but increase leads for the Jazz.[/QUOTE]
That's what I'm thinking. Starters keep it close with D and let the bench win games. Burks or Sefolosha to start instead of Hood though!

[QUOTE]Without Gordon Hayward to lead the scoring efforts, the offense will probably come from different guys on different nights. [/QUOTE]
No Hood is a go to guy! Should be 6 guys doing most of the scoring until the all-star break
[QUOTE]Rubio finished with nine points on 3-of-9 shooting (1-for-5 from deep)[/QUOTE]
one of which was particularly ugly!
Let's see what they do against a good D. Maybe Saturday?
