Utah Trade Deadline Discussion

The only thing trading for hezonja will do is increase his value and drive up his price in free agency. Wait and try and sign him for cheap this off season if you like him.
 
So looking at Tankathon I noticed that only a 1.5 games separates 1-8. There is an opportunity to raid those bottom teams of good players because they need to lose hard.

I know we have kicked around Evan Fournier a ton, but if the price is AB and salary filler plus a second for him are we in? His contract is long but he's productive... I mean he might be a $15M a year player and is just slightly overpaid. The big motivation for them is getting off of money and losing even more. They going to do better than that?

IDK, but the GMs for those teams owe it to their tanks to make moves to lose.
 
How so? Haven't really seen any of him at all.. What's going on with him? Loved him predraft.

Small and a volume shooter, but not lights out. Can't get on the floor for a team that needs a scoring punch and shooting. Clearly wanted to be in NY and wasn't real happy to go to a small market.

Just not a guy I see and think he'd fit great here... doesn't mean he's a "bad" guy... just don't see him as a fit. I think he would have value... could likely get a decent first rounder or a couple lower tier first rounders from a team like Atlanta.

Yeh awesome! **** targeting an all nba FA next year when we can overpay Fournier...

When we think of trade ideas can we follow these 2 rules:

1) No Rudy, No DM
2) Dont bring back salary that doesnt expire next season.

Simple.

Oh yeh and just to be clear, **** Evan Fournier!

I would agree with this
