    Traded Dunn. I have no idea. I'm thinking Rondo is the logical choice.

    Aldridge said they're going after Lowry.

    Lowry or Teague, Butler, Wiggins, Towns, Dieng. That solid.

    I like that starting 5 a lot with Teague.

    Also mind blown when you realize that Rubio is only 26.

    Rubio in Utah is good. I think he'll do wonders for Gobert.

    rumor is they felt that they'd be outpriced fairly quickly so Rubio gives them a little more security.

    right. but word was hayward liked hill. i think they had to make a choice, and figured having someone was better than being left holding the bag. when they walk into their meeting with hayward, they're going to be able to articulate a very clear plan.

    I mean personal relationships aside, I think this is a very good move for the Jazz. Rubio is a great passer and I think he's going to do things offensively the Jazz haven't been able to do in some time.
