The Utah Jazz essentially landed John Collins, a near All-Star caliber player from the Atlanta Hawks for Rudy Gay. The Jazz saw that Collins needed a fresh start after a ho-hum season with the Hawks where he played through a hand injury that affected his shooting. The Hawks opted to trade Collins to save salary, and in doing so may have given the Jazz a player who can help them get to the playoffs.
The only problem, many think the Jazz are either going to take a step back from their performance last season or are outside of the top teams in the Western Conference currently and have to figure out some aspects of the team.
