Al to Toronto, 3 team deal

Posted by: Jazzed uponit on July 14th, 2012

The author's views are entirely his or her own and may not reflect the views of the Utah Jazz.

Jazz -  gain: Illyasova and Livingston from Bucks                       Lose: Al, Watson

Bucks- gain: Bargnani , Derozen, and Earl Watson                       Lose: Illyasova, Livingston, Udrih, pick

Toronto- get : Al,  Beno Udrih, and Bucks draft pick                   Lose: Bargnani, Derozen

Toronto facilitates the deal with large cap space. Tortonto fills the gaps in the post as well as acquiring a draft pick for the future.

Bucks win big with Bargnani who is more solid in the post than Illyasova. Derozen also an upgrade to the backcourt.

Jazz unclog the jam down low with Illyasova to spread the court with his range, backing up PF and SF. Jazz also upgrade the backup PG with Livingston. Al is on his way out in 2013 , the jazz pick up a piece for the future while making room on cap space .

  1. I think it is all right minus the fact we all ready have three PF and need a C and then also Calderon would have to be shipped in any deal he wants out

    So Toronto loses Bargnani and De Rozan, the best players they actually have on the roster for … big Al ? Not everybody is the Houston Rockets.

    Oh, and Illyasova can’t be traded until several months.

  3. This would be an ideal trade for us right now. Favors would have to play center but i have full confidence that he could do that. We could start Paul and Favors for a time until Kanter is ready to fill a starting role then we start Kanter and Favors and Paul becomes the best 6th man in the league. This is the direction I would like us to head in. And best of all we get rid of Al’s horrible defense. If this would be our final move this off season I still think we are pretty weak at the point.

  4. If this trade can’t happen we still need to move Big Al for a better point who might have a long term future with the Jazz.

  5. There honestly isnt great options for an Al trade across the league. Maybe when the dust settles and houston doesnt land dwight. Houstons’ 1st round draft pick for Al . Straight up ;)

    I dont think that would make sense for Toronto or Millwaukee. Ilyasova cant be traded until Jan 15.

  7. JRN5150 says:

    Ilyasova wouldnt be happy to backup anybody either. He just got his big break. I dont think its a good situation for any team involved.

    Hahahahaha. Ah, this is a such a bad idea. I think most people here have made good summations on why. I just wish people had thicker filters before publishing rubbish like this.

    Won’t work until Jan 15th, trade restriction.

    “Livingston from Bucks”??? Not listed on the roster.

    Why would Toronto trade 2 of their best players for Big Al?

    If you run a potential trade through RealGM.com you can save yourself some time, with trades which won’t work.
