The Jazz are going to be GOOD.

Very interesting.

Wouldn't had minded getting Johnson on that deal

[Who]

PG: George Hill, Dante Exum, Shelvin Mack, Trey Burke
SG: Rodney Hood, Alec Burks
SF: Gordon Hayward, Joe Johnson
PF: Derrick Favors, Trey Lyles, Trevor Booker
 C: Rudy Gobert, (Favors), Jeff Withey

Their team is coming together nicely. I worry a bit about Exum and available minutes though.

Depending on how things are going, I can see this move enabling the Cs to be aggressive in trying to trade for Hayward at the trade deadline if there's interest there.
