Of course you wouldn't.

I won't get in a Tatum v. Mitchell argument but I think it's safe to say Boston views Tatum similarly to how Utah views Mitchell.

I would trade DM for AD though if I knew AD wanted to stick around

True, but I would say that Boston has a history of getting great players and building championship teams. We don't. Mitchell is the most exciting young player we've probably ever had. If Boston traded Tatum, they would still have Kyrie. I love Gobert, but Kyrie is a superstar to go along with Hayward, Horford, etc.

This, 100% this. I want Jrue in Utah so bad.

Problem is NO will botch this and try and stitch it together and move on without AD. Gonna pull a SA and keep most the core of the team together and try and scratch their way to the #8 seed. They should tear the thing down, but I doubt they do it right.
 
Would you trade AD for a package involving Gobert? That's what it would take. Imagine what Quin could do with AD. A top 10-15 player for a top 5 MVP type player.

Personally, depending on what they can get for AD, I think its the right move to try and stay competitive.

Get Tatum or Brown + Hayward and a first and try to make the playoffs.
 
Lakers have a bunch of quarters they can try to trade for a dollar, but I still think the best deal is with Philly (if they offer Ben... which I think they would).

I also find it weird that the stated starting asking price didn't include Ingram. Eff that if I'm NO you give me Ingram, Kuzma, Hart, Zubac and 3 firsts... If they want Ball they can ask for him, but I'd move him to a 3rd team for something... might do the same with Ingram.

I'm not so sure. They are going to try to save face of course, but making the playoffs is out of the question this year. This summer, Randle and Mirotic can and likely leave. So really, Jrue is the only valuable player on the entire roster that isn't traded for.

If NOLA is smart, they try to get the best pick possible along with a solid player or two, then trade Jrue and then tank. Between the pick(s) the acquire for AD, the pick(s) they acquire for Jrue and their own pick, they could have 2 top 7 picks plus more.

They'd have to wait until the offseason though... and are Niko and Randle going to re-sign (all money being equal of course) knowing AD out of here?
