2019 Trade Deadline Discussion

[Thee Jazz Fan]

I'm over the Conley idea. I have faith in Mitchell and Exum for the long term future.

I would do whatever it takes to get JJJ though. Take Parsons, take Conley, send picks, whatever.

There’s no way they are trading JJJ.

if i'm Utah I think I try to make a play to contend this season before LA brings in every ****ing free agent available-- I think Golden State is shaky (Cousins looks slow on defence, Draymond and Klay have had bizarre years, and their core might break up this season), LA isn't a threat rn, neither is Houston, and frankly neither is OKC.

Honestly, if Harris is attainable for Rubio and a protected first, or Favors and a protected first, you gotta do it.

IMO Harris is 100% a guy we could get.

Lol. Hate to be the one to break the bad news to you, but Rubio is suiting up for this one.


I wouldn’t trade Mitchell or Gobert. They are studs and want to be here.

Firstly Anthony Davis is way better than both of them. Now I'm not a fan of rubio. But I feel sorry for him to comeback now against these teams. He should sack his agent for poor advice. It's his contract year if they lose everyone will say it's cause of Rubio. He shouldn't play the next 3 games. Let the players who played against bad teams play these good teams.

Maybe if the Clippers continue their huge skid. Making the playoffs and showing they are a competent organization capable of winning is a pretty big deal if their goal is too attract max free agents. Plus having Harris as a safety net if they can't is a pretty nice fall-back.

I assume you're referring to my post.

I have perspective. I said they were playing terribly earlier in the season. Which is undeniable fact. .

I’m here to deny your undeniable fact.

The suns are terrible. The cavs are terrible. The jazz were, on average, mediocre at worst.

We love Rubio because he would never pull this amateurish ********. It’s a selfish move that guys like boozer would pull. And anyone who blames Rubio when the schedule hits an inflection point is an idiot fan and not a serious basketball analyst.

if we get Tobias, he's more of an upgrade over Ingles than Favs. Ingles' best role should be as the ball handler on the 2nd unit. both him and korver honestly shouldn't be playing more than 25mpg given their age and fitness

This is a bad take. What is the one thing this team has needed for years now, that has been discussed ad nauseum? A stretch 4! Harris would be perfect in that role on this team. Also, the only way we could even afford Harris in free agency is by letting Favors go and more than likely the only way we could acquire him in a trade would be by trading Favors (it's unlikely the Clippers will trade him though).

1. 
   Love is a natural target for the Jazz, whom Sam Amico of Amico Hoops mentioned as a potential Love suitor back in October.
   
   Utah, which ranks 20th in three-point percentage, needs more snipers. Love drilled 137 long-balls at a 41.5 percent clip last season. The Jazz need another scorer to ease the burden on Mitchell, who's set to become just the fifth qualified second-year player with a usage percentage north of 30. Love is averaging 18.3 points per game for his career and has booked All-Star trips as a primary scorer, sidekick and third wheel.
   
   Assuming there's a Derrick Favors-focused offer Cleveland would accept—Love's trade value is...shall we say...not great—Utah might help Love as much as he'd assist it.
   
   "Putting Love next to Rudy Gobert in Favors' place would give the Jazz a new scoring dimension without losing the rebounding Favors provided," The Ringer's Haley O'Shaughnessy wrote in June. "Being reunited with Ricky Rubio would mean Love would get the ball more often, and being paired in the same offense as Donovan Mitchell would lead to a lot of open shots."
   
   With rangy defenders in front of him and Gobert manning the middle, Love's defensive limitations might be less harmful in Utah. The same could be true of his massive contract, since the Jazz aren't likely to add a player of his caliber through free agency. Oh, and the Park City superfan might even consider Salt Lake City a desired destination.
   

I still say no

How many firsts do we get in the deal?

Kidding but let’s just say nah and move on.

Hypothetically, we could trade Favors and Neto and it works financially. I would imagine that we would want to send Favors to a third team since Cleveland really has no use for him. That third team would give the assets to Cleveland.

If Love is healthy, he does help us win more games over Favors. I'm pretty confident in saying that. If you are talking about this year and next, I think Love at $26 on average helps us more than Favors at $17. However, Love's contract from 2020-2023 (3 years averaging around $30) is just brutal.
