I'd rather keep the draft pick and sign Niko in free agency.

This. I really don't see Lindsey giving up a pick at this point unless something really overwhelms him. Favors HAS been looking better lately. He's too valuable behind Rudy; there's a HUGE drop-off between him and Udoh.

If the Jazz strike out in free agency, re-signing Favors wouldn't be a huge disaster. But we need to do something at PG.
 
You do not trade favors for Niko. You just sign him this offseason and if we can't get anyone....well then, we have favors for another year

You either trade Favors for Mirotic now or you drop Favors for Mirotic later.

The only difference is that trading for him now gives us a chance to see how he fits. If he doesn't really fit, we could avoid a $25+ mistake...

A player I would love to have that is looki g to be traded is Jaylen Brown from Boston. I think he would be a perfect fit here in Utah. He's a really good defender, super athletic and can create his own shot which I think we lack outside of Mitchell. Not sure who we would have to trade to get him but I assume we would lose either Rubio or Exum and another piece or a draft pick. I think it would be worth it if Brown can come in and play like he did last year. I would also then move Mitchell to the starting point and Brown to the two.

Mitchell
Brown
Ingles
Favors
Gobert

I like it but again, not sure what it would take to get Brown but I know he's ready to get out of Boston.
 
Latest news from Memphis is that Gasol and Conley have had a meeting with their owner and that trades are impending.

Latest news from Washington is that the Wizards do not want to get future assets and cap relief for Otto Porter. They want to continue to contend for playoffs...

With those in mind... here's my idea for a trade:

It's a bit complicated. Brace yourselves!

UTA trades 2 1st round picks, Dante Exum, Derrick Favors, Thabo Sefolosha, Ricky Rubio
UTA gets Mike Conley, Otto Porter

MEM trades Marc Gasol, Mike Conley
MEM gets 2 1st round picks from the Jazz(put whatever protection would make sense), Ian Mahinmi, Derrick Favors, Dante Exum

WAS trades Otto Porter, Ian Mahinmi
WAS gets Marc Gasol, Ricky Rubio, Thabo Sefolosha


Why for UTA: Utah replaces 2 starters by 2 players that better fit the roster. In essence this is an admission by the Jazz that they are not likely to get anyone better in free agency than those two and decision to use the capspace on those 2 players. Starting lineup of Conley-Mitchell-Ingles-Porter-Gobert gives a great balance between offense/shooting and defense.

Why for MEM: they decide to finally break up their aging duo and start over by getting a young guard in Exum, and 2 1st round picks, Derrick Favors can also be flipped for more if they decide they wouldn't want to keep him past this year

Why for WAS: The latest news is that they don't want to trade Porter for future assets and they want to continue to contend. This one gives them a better center than they've had recently and a starter at the PG while Wall returns. They also get depth at the wing in Sefolosha. All those are win now pieces. Clearing Ian Mahinmi is just welcome a bonus

I like it. I think it's very very fair as well and makes sense for everybody. But also crazy complex and will never happen lol.

As a jazz fan it's high risk and high reward imo and it could bite us in the ***. I would do it though.

What do you guys think about John Collins? I know that Hawks are pretty much high on him and is probably untouchable atm. Donovan's best bud as well. Maybe offer Favors since he's from Atlanta, Bradley and picks. Just a thought, don't get hell bent on it people. lol

That’s not happening.
 
Interesting thoughts fellas. I just have to ask the following questions:

#1 - Since Memphis keeps their first rounder if they are in the bottom 8, why would they trade Gasol and Conley to get Porter? Shouldn't they be trading those vets for draft/young assets?

#2 - If Washington doesn't want picks and assets for Porter and they want to contend now, why would they trade Porter? Wouldn't it make more sense for Washington to send Mahinmi, Morris, Tony Brown/1st for Gasol?

#3 - I'm more and more wary of Conley as I see Donovan play some PG. Either Exum or Rubio with Mitchell and we should be fine at PG.
