He explained further: “I think individually they have resolve. I just don’t believe that collectively they did. So we saw a lot of players trying to do it on their own, as the belief in one another wasn’t as great as other teams I’ve been on and around.”“So when we got to the playoffs, I thought, well, this is a team that’s had some disappointing playoffs and maybe they’re just waiting for the playoffs,” he continued. “And so I gave them that benefit of the doubt.
The returns have, frankly, stunned other NBA executives. But perhaps the most surprising part of the two moves wasn’t the return, but who the Jazz found in trade partners.

But Zanik also said that those veterans could end up on this otherwise-youthful team this upcoming season.
