What could they offer other than crappy contracts?

Looks like CJ has been playing his best ball for Scott not surprisingly. Good for him! He'll probably get booed.

Denver has assets but it would have to be Iguodala I'd think to give up Millsap.

Can teams offer him an extension for more than the max one the Jazz already offered him and he turned down?

Might need a 4th team. Memphis goes back into the luxury tax I think with this but saves them next year and the future with the expiring contracts. Jazz and Toronto could send cash to offset the tax maybe? I 'd be happy to send picks and Tomic if necessary too and Toronto has lots of picks as well I believe.
Re: 2012-13 regular season!
Looks like that's 2 pg's off the trading table now.
Re: 2012-13 regular season!
I imagine Calderon could still be flipped?

Doesn't sound like it, they seem pretty excited to have a pure PG on the roster.
Seen this deal?

Re: 2012-13 regular season!
Yes it sounds like they are happy to have Calderon as they should be.
Not sure Phoenix is going to trade Dragic especially when Marshall hasn't shown aything. Frye for 2 more years certainly isn't ideal but he's basically Okur for half the money. Rather have Petro and Morrow.

I can see them being part of a deal with all of their expiring contracts. possibly Mo if it's determined he's out most of the year when the splint comes of soon. Raja certainly is available too.
Re: 2012-13 regular season!
Don't see the point in keeping Jefferson. Surely it's better to get some assets for him, rather than let him go for nothing at seasons end.

It's been the Jazz's MO for a long time. They didn't trade Boozer even though Millsap had already shown what he could do as the starter unlike Favors and Kanter. Remains to be seen if things change with the new GM? I'm not sure that there's that many deals out there for him? Does it help them now and/or in the future? I think they will be a better team without him but not sure they do. A sign and trade will be possible but not as easy with the new CBA. They do get cap space so it's not nothing.
I'm guessing they want to keep Millap or Jefferson preferably Millsap but if one of them gets a ridiculous offer and they've traded the other than they have neither. Same thing Lakers and Clipps are thinking with Gasol and Bledsoe.
