The Utah Jazz remain in the playoff picture and were engaged in trade talks involving Al Jefferson and Paul Millsap, but multiple sources say that general manager Dennis Lindsey expressed a willingness to take a step back next season to get a better pick in the strong 2014 NBA Draft.
The Jazz casually discussed a Millsap for Eric Bledsoe trade, but are comfortable letting both he and Jefferson depart via free agency without compensation.
The Jazz could have dealt Millsap for a high first round pick in 2012, but would have been required to take back a bad contract.

Trading away a log jam in the front court for a backcourt player is going to improve them. Trading one away for a pick will make them just marginally worse.

In theory it's brilliant

Kanter should be very much starter ready then, Burks will be good, and Favors will be a beast.

Add Trey Burke this year, Wiggins the next.... That team >>>>
