Jason Hart sent to LA in return. I was shocked to discover that Hart will be making more money next year than Knight (roughly $2.5 mil vs. $2 mil).

hmm knight is a decent backup to williams. good move for utah.

Hart a good period for the Clippers late in the season a year ago. He'll be a quality backup guard for Baron Davis.

There was talk of Hart asking the Jazz to waive him if he wasn't going to be in the rotation next season (Ronnie Price). So good deal for the Jazz to be able to move him for a less expensive and capable replacement.

Be interesting to see if Brevin Knight can take Ronnie Price's spot. I have my doubts but he has a decent shot.

Does this reinforce the idea of Knight as problem in the locker room? Or did L.A. just like Jason Hart that much? He's younger, taller, stronger, and not a injury risk, but I have a hard time seeing him as an upgrade on the floor.

I think you answered your own question, WW.

Hart played well the last time he was with the Clips. He's a known commodity for them.
