Great trade idea

We should make a trade for Terry Rozier.

Boston has two point guards already. I know they like him, but we could get him for less now than he would cost later. People thought they reached a bit, but it was good pick. We should have taken him instead of Lyles. I'd trade them Lyles and Burke right now if they'd take it.

Terry Rozier looks like he's gonna be pretty good. He's athletic, plays defense, can shoot. Still young. Has a lot of upside. I think he can contribute right away too. He would for sure be our immediate starter right now.


What's your thoughts on this. Do you like the idea?
 
Starting him is asking too much.. honestly don't know if at this point he'd be a marked upgrade over Neto.. Pretty sure that I posted Rozier was a better prospect than Trey a while back.

I had Rozier as a 1st round pick before the college season started..

Depending on how Neto shoots it from 3... If he can end up keeping defenses honest, the Jazz found another 2nd round gem. Neto's a much better passer/natural PG.

Rozier would be much more turnover prone than Trey in starters minutes, he's fairly reckless and certainly wouldn't shoot higher than 40% from the field.. his shooting is streaky at best...

He's very athletic and very good on defense, he's absolutely ferocious and competitive, spark plug type, very high energy, so If it started well, who knows what could happen... And he's not bad at getting to the rack, he's got some shiftiness..


Is he worth paying assets for that would give Boston an instant return on that pick?? Probably not..


If Boston were to include James Young in the deal, I'd kinda like this idea a bit more...


Absolutely no to trading Lyles though, thats when this whole idea veers in to ridiculousness. If they were going to trade Lyles they would've traded that draft pick, during the draft..
 
Lyles is too much. I would inquire about Miwaukee's Tyler Ennis and Minny's Tyus Jones, both good college PG's Rozier's age or younger
 
Trading for Cameron Payne is a much better idea IMO..


It all depends on what your trying to accomplish with this move though.. Hack do you foresee Terry Rozier leading the Jazz to the Playoffs???


Payne adds offense where its most needed, he's in no way redundant with Dante (they could play together rather well IMO) - I think he might be the spark plug they'd need at PG to make a legit run - Rozier is not that guy offensively.

Would be cool to have a lefty PG who can shoot, next to Burks and Hayward, it'd be entertaining to watch.. Hood's a lefty shooter too, they'd be great on the same unit..
 
How is Lyles too much? Lyles has done exactly nothing and isn't really great at anything. I'm still not sure he's gonna be any good at all.
 
The two things Boston really doesn't need more of: PG's and PF's

What does Hack propose we trade them: PG's and PF's.

You missed Lyles' beautiful drive n dish in game one.

It's not about what we are trading them. Offer them our lousy first round picks then. Just get Rozier before people find out he's gonna be good.

Pretty sure they'll take as many power forwards as they can get anyways.

I like the idea of Payne, but....

You say that if the Jazz were going to trade Lyles, then they would have traded that pick on draft day. Why, then, would OKC trade Payne? Both players are in similar positions within their teams: buried on the depth chart. Also, trading Payne for pick(s) does nothing to help them win THIS YEAR, and they're ALL IN.

In other words, I like the idea of Payne, but I don't see much reality in the notion of acquiring him.

I like Tyus jones. He's another one I'd like to get. I don't care for Tyler Ennis too much.

Unless your dealing with an idiot GM, which Danny Ainge isn't.. There's no way your going to extract the same value from that pick, 4 months after the fact.


Lindsey didn't use a lottery pick on a PF that's 3rd on the depth chart, to then go and panic over the PG position, they've got a plan, they had these scenarios covered since they finalized their draft board.

Devin Booker was certainly good enough for the Jazz to draft with the pick, at relative low risk and high upside, they preferred Trey though. He could also feasibly play some SF and some C too. They were using him and Booker as the bigs at one point. I like that lineup better than Booker and Pleiss.. Trey is very skilled in faceup, makes great passes, he's shown enough flashes IMO in SL and Preseason..

He's got Greg Monroe type of skills plus some, once his jumpers on point, he'll be very dangerous with the ball..
