Works on Realgm
I think trading JHo to get a young and talented Center is a pretty good deal (as Otis keeps telling the media... they are hard to find). Also, Bell makes sense as a starting 2 with JET coming off the bench. Jazz can move AK to the 4 (if they don't re-sign Millsap) and get a legitimate 3 in JHo + they waive Williams to save salary. Charlotte gets the PF they've been searching for and a shooter in Korver. You've still got the Buck Shot and the Dust Chip to make future moves. If the Jazz insist on a shooter to replace Korver, then offer up Carroll instead of Williams.

One problem with such a trade now.
Now, the Heat are working furiously to deliver Lamar Odom(notes) and Carlos Boozer(notes) to the shores of Biscayne Bay. The Heat are trying to sell Odom on a five-year, $34 million contract at the mid-level exception, and a league executive with knowledge of the talks says Miami has also hatched a three-way proposal with the Utah Jazz and Memphis Grizzlies to secure Boozer.
The essentials of a possible deal would include Miami sending forward Udonis Haslem(notes) and Dorell Wright to Utah. Because Memphis is under the cap, Utah could move Wright’s $2.8 million salary to the Grizzlies and save itself approximately $5.6 million with salary and luxury-tax payments. Memphis would probably get cash and picks for its trouble. The Heat would have to send one more small contract to make the math on the salary exchange work.
Miami could pay Boozer his $12.7 million salary this season and own his Bird rights to sign him to an extension next summer.
