If Bosh decides he won't resign with Toronto, they'd love to take Rip's contract, Jason Maxiell and a 1st rounder for him.
Utah also might want it if they decide to dump Boozer and resign Okur and Milsap this year.
As for Stuckey, he has great potential, but he is not even close to a PG and is one of the worst perimeter defenders in the NBA to start last season. I'm not sure except to say Joe Dumars envisions him as a PG\SG lead guard combo much like he himself was in the 90's.

Hamilton was given a 3 year extension last November, with the 3rd year being only partially guaranteed. He's not an expiring contract.
Rip, Maxiell, and a 1st rounder for Chris Bosh? Colangelo can't be that dumb.
Boozer and Okur took their player options for this upcoming season. I've heard the Boozer for Hamilton deal rumored and, if so, then the Pistons should obviously do it. I don't see what's in it for the Jazz, though. Taking Hamilton doesn't help them keep Millsap - they'd have to trade Boozer straight into someone's cap space.
I like Stuckey's game, kinda. I completely agree with you, though, he's not a PG. At all.
