Conley to Utah confirmed.

I really like him... I'm just on that "DM should play mostly at pg train" now. The price is high and I'm not sure how much higher he takes our current ceiling... and his best days may be behind him.

If we got him I'd talk myself into it in a minute I'm sure.

Good article about the best trade deadline deals we ever did.

Seems to me that we are more successful in getting great players via a trade deadline deal (Hayward, Favors, Rubio, Hornacek, Kanter) than we are in free agency (Boozer, Okur, Harpring).

Harpring is our third best FA signing? Yikes. He did have an interesting career jump coming aboard, going from 11.8 PPG to 17.6 PPG. Missed a lot of layups and made some really stupid decisions, though. It’s interesting that it seemed like Marshall’s first year was a lot more impactful but numbers wise not as much. I thought we let Donyell go to clear room for AK, but then we signed Harpring.

The price is high in terms of dollars or what we’d pay in a trade? I’d imagine he’d only get moved to clear salary and get back minor assets.

Little of both. Probably takes a first and we are capped out once we get him. If I knew the warriors were going to break up or if he was younger I'd probably be all in.

Favors, Rubio, Grayson, Bradley and 2 1st rounders for Conley and JJJ. :)
 
But seriously, to get Conley, we would have to trade Rubio AND Favors. Are we really willing to do that?

Or Rubio, Thabo, Udoh, and Bradley to make Conley work. Are we willing to do that?

This.
I really like Conley and if we got him I would applaud the move..... Yet as it stands right now I would probably pass

I think Conley is better fit than Rubio... he’s a better player on both ends of the court... but I’m not 100% sure we are better with mike if we also lose Favs in the deal. And they likely want a pick... and I think someone would give it up. Indiana seems like a solid candidate... Phoenix maybe but might be too old there. Orlando might give up a pick or something solid.

Don’t get me wrong I’d make a few calls and have a meeting but I’m not sure it’s a homerun.

I really like Conley, but that contract is pretty awful.

If our trade is just Rubio, Thabo, Udoh, and Bradley, it would be really hard to say no to that.
