2019 Trade Deadline Discussion

I think the Wizards would prefer Rubio over Exum, stop gap PG to put beside Beal on an expiring deal, and between letting go of him and Favors they're clearly out a ton of cap space to potentially add a piece in the offseason.
Sounds good to me

By the way, Porter weighs 20-30 pounds less than Joe Ingles. Don't think that's gonna work at the 4.
That's a good point. I don't like it, but a good point nonetheless

Usually, I would agree with this assessment. However, Gobert is a complete game changer. When you have elite players like Gobert, you have the luxury of doing other things.

Like with Golden State - Draymond is so dynamic on the defensive end that they often go with Draymond at C and 6'6" 210 pound Iguodala at PF.

Porter gives us so much comprehensive ability on offense and enough height and length on defense. But if a team does want to go big on us in the playoffs, we still have Jae.

I do like the idea of Porter Jr in an organisation that actually knows how to develop talent properly, think it would really bring out the best in him defensively.
 
I like OP for the Jazz, but all this is probably for naught. Our FO pulls the trigger on moves when they are there. The ones that make it to the media almost never come to pass. I can't remember the last time we heard of a trade before it happened. The sellers are probably asking too much for OP and Conley.

Tbh with how our team is playing even being down some guys, plus the fact that we have one of the easiest schedules in the league and I think we finish the season on a 15-5 run and go into the playoffs as one of, if not, the hottest teams in the league with home court advantage. I think we will win the 1st round of the playoffs and maybe even round 2 depending on who we match up against.

It might be better to hold onto that cap space and go after a free agent. We might be very enticing to a free agent after another strong regular season and deep playoff run with a stud star Spida and a guy like Rudy plus a young star coach and really nice supporting cast.

I believe Donovan (plus a but load of cash) will be able to attract a big time free agent to this awesome roster and management/culture we have going here.



I was thinking we need to make a trade but I'm leaning the other way now towards attacking free agency

Show Tobias the clip of DM high giving the crowd and then a highlight of the clippers arena dead silent or cheering for the warriors or lakers... then get his Bank account info so we know where to send the direct deposits.

I've been on this thought process for a while. I think the reluctancy to put our eggs in the FA basket makes sense, considering our market and or FA history. Although markets still do matter, I think winning has proven to be more important. I think guys would have to take a serious look at the situation here in their free agency. It looks like this is the Jazz belief as well.

I've said this before but I think the Jazz believe they have 2 shots, this FA and next. I'd be willing to bet that they try to remain flexible for both of those unless the right deal comes along.
 
But what about Blake Griffin?

Anyone see that postgame clip yesterday. He obviously wants to be on a team that takes winning more seriously. And talk about your 25+PPG threat, and the fit is great.

They are still in the thick of that #8 seed eastern conference battle doe.

I'd like it, but personality, injury issue, contract are a little scary. The upside is huge though. Not sure he is gettable... he's like all they got. He's under contract forever so he's got no leverage.

Well how much does Detroit even want to keep him? That contract is tough for a team going nowhere. Trading them at least puts them firmly on one side of the tanking fence, which I'm sure the fans would prefer.

The injury stuff, age, and contract are obviously concerns. But man, a shooting, playmaking, PF who can get buckets. I get giddy thinking about him in our offense. Mitchell, Gobert, and (healthy) Blake is a team I'd be happy to go to war with for the next few years. That team would be a problem.
