[Jones]BREAKING: Jazz willing to engage Celtics in S&T talks: But Gordon Hayward must agree

[The Midnight]

There are 3 candidates, why do you guys think BOS will be giving away Crowder?


Bradley is the ideal candidate for the trade from BOS POV with only 1 year left on his contract, no?

Tony Jones just tweeted that Hayward and his agent "immediately" agreed to help facilitate a S&T

Bartlestein and Haywood finally decided which Fabreze they should use. It broke the mental logjam of their decision making process.

how many people has this Woj dude had to bang in his lifetime to get all these exclusive contacts.

So the number equates to a percentile.

Yes. You are right.

While Bradley is a damn good player, he is redundant to our young developing players. I'd still take him over nothing, but we'd probably be looking to flip him before the trade deadline.

I think Crowder makes the most sense for us but also Crowder was very vocal about not being ok with the Celtics fans cheering for his replacement (Hayward).

When did OneLove become negative Nancy?

Theory: Utah made this rumor up to make Hayward seem like more of an ******* when the deal inevitably doesnt get done.

What do the Jazz get out of it exactly? Except for satisfying our vindictiveness?

Once bitten, twice shy bro... never will I trust anyone anymore after this Hayward shenanigan.

Why wouldn't Crowder want to be dealt to Utah? In straight basketball terms, it makes 100% sense for him. If I were him, I'd have my agent on the line with Bartlestein, telling Mark to make it happen.

The Celtics have Hayward, Brown, and Tatum at SF. Crowder's kind of become the odd-man out, unless they want him playing the 4 and guarding opposing PF's full time.

But they can get rid of Bradley first to get out of a jam here with signing Hayward, then during the season trade Crowder for something else more valuable.

Battlespace preparation. Having sports people spend the news cycle explaining that Haywood left a high functioning small market team, is a better narrative than Utah is a farm team.

who has space and need for Bradley right now? And what are the chances that they can/want to pay him $20 Million dollars a year after this next season?

EDIT: is there anybody in the East who will even pick up the phone and help Ainge with this right now?

 

[Stoked]

Boston twitter going at DjJazyJoddy and Tony Jones hard lmfao. They sound bitter over the possible s&t. I hope it happens just for that.

Crowder's chip would make the games vs celts even more epic. Not getting hopes up tho.

Again, Crowder is by far the best talent/prospect compared to Bradley & Smart. If I'm Ainge, I trade away Bradley first to get Hayward signed, then trade Crowder at the deadline for other assets.

 

[Siro]

I'm sorry to poop in everyone's soup, but I don't see why Boston would give up one of the best 3&D guys in the NBA, on one of the best contracts, out of the goodness of their hearts.

Not happening. No way. Nope.

I'd be happy if they accepted our first round pick to let go of Crowder. 2 second rounders? I'd soil my pants, both ways.

I'm talking about S&T with Utah, why would Ainge give us Crowder over Bradley or Smart?

The other takeaway I have from this thread is "DO the Jazz keep a used pair of shoes from every player ever to play for them? Seems kind of weird that they had a pair from Jae's father just hanging around. . ."
