This is not inaccurate. Let's be honest: 65% is definitely a guess, at best an educated guess. But it reflects my belief that the Jazz are likely, but not 100%, to make a trade this deadline. My belief is also backed up with some sourcing, though, like everyone, I don't know everything.
But basically, I have two choices here: to answer the question I get asked constantly, "Do you think the Jazz will make a trade?", or ignore it. I'm choosing to answer it to the best of my ability.
Guess teams wanted too much for the players DL targeted. Disappointing, but not altogether unexpected. Also could be the final ploy by DL. Simply walk away and let a team come back to you and take the last deal you offered them,from source, Jazz will sit out this trade deadline unless a team wants to use jazz cap space to dump $ or is looking to give player for late 1st. - @Peter_J_Novak

I don't see anything substantial happening; Burke's contract is friendly to trade but at the same time provides us more financial flexibility vs. taking on Teague. If Teague goes anywhere, it's to a team that wants to win now.
I think people forget that Trey's salary at <$5 mil ain't bad for what he gives us; combine that with the escalating cap, a team that won't escape the first round without a massive favor from God.

Remember, why would ATL want Burke? Teague is expendable as Schroder is next. Burke will just bench-warm for a couple of years before hitting the open market again so other than shaving a bit of dough from their cap, he doesn't really fill any need.

Booker or Withey on the move?
Likely just keeping Pleis ready in case a last-minute trade would emerge.
The Jazz is the most boring trade deadline team.
