2019 Trade Deadline Discussion

Wings get a premium... wings that can play up in small ball lineups get a premium, two way players get a premium, guys with off ball value get a premium, guys who can shoot get a premium, guys in their prime get a premium....

OP has all these attributes in different levels... you can get it cheap sometimes but it’s really hard to find.

If this has already been talked about..forgive me.

Does Conley take you out of the Tobias sweepstakes? It looks like financially it’s still feasible. They’d be over the tax but they’d be a serious contender. Ride out the final two years of Conley and DM rookie deal and then sign DM to max. Core of Harris, DM, Rudy going froward. (maybe Conley signs a smaller deal to stay if all works out)

It does and it isn’t even close... reports of 40M in cap space aren’t really feasible or functional. Mike makes 32-33M next year... Tobias will get a max... you can book it unless he gets a serious injury.

Check out Tony Jones twitter timeline... he’s got me nervous... really high on Conley... mentioned ordering certain combo/stretch forwards and put Love over Harris Otto and Gallo (just as players without consideration to contract).

I hope his thoughts don’t mirror managements.

If Exum was included in an OP Jr. trade there is a path to $28ish M in space if we moved Crowder and Korver to a team's cap space without taking anything back.

Not sure what that buys you. Could also get OP and move some of the less significant stuff around to get to $14-15M. If Niko's market sucks that might be enough to get him. Might be a good way to offer a deal and get solid value.

I think OP is good to play more than half his minutes as a 4 but I'm not sure he's a full-time 4.

If he is not full-time 4 (which I agree with) that gives reason to not move Crowder. Correct?

We desperately need solid role players who want to be in Utah like Korver and Crowder. They are fantastic contracts too.

Correct... I'd want a bench big with traditional 4 build/skillset too... could be an end of bench guy. Play OP at SF some alongside Crowder at times.

We'd be hard pressed to do better with 1 year and $15M (what they make next year combined).

1. At the point that you're trading two sure-fire rotation players that are also central to the culture and one guy with plenty of intrigue and is now the third-longest tenured player on the Jazz, are you still the team and culture you think you are.
2. If you're considering getting rid of Crowder and Korver, don't you consider just trading their salary in one of these deals?
3. You'd better hit with that cap space. But you're now out on Harris, Middleton, and every tier 1 guy.
