2019 Trade Deadline Discussion

zyzz said:
Lol this is a bit clickbaity. Lowe said theoretically the Jazz would be interested in a trade and they would be interested in free agency. Also said he thinks teams have called for Harris and got shut down. He also said that if he were the Clippers, he would be a seller at the deadline since getting the 8th seed isn't really worth losing your 1st round pick over (owed to Boston).

Not so shut down or clickbaity?? lol
I'm sure Utah offered some packages too albeit nowhere near as attractive as PHI's final offer.
Not enough assets!! Well, I guess this is what happens when your ******* #1 guy walks away for nothing taking you a prisoner in the process.

No, it happens when you use 5 draft picks (2 for Burke, then Exum, Hill and Rubio) trying to get a PG and end up with one who can't shoot consistently and one who hasn't proven much except in the eyes of a few staunch homeboys. It also happens when you sell pick after pick instead of finding a few rotation players in the 2nd round. It happens when you have a ton of cap space year after year but don't sign any free agents that could later be tradeable assets. Don't blame Hayward. I hate the guy, but a lot saw that coming. And very few GM's arrange for trade exceptions when they're about to sign free agents.

The blame is squarely on the back of Lindsey for wasting a ton of assets, for not doing a proper rebuild by keeping Utah in the late lottery for all but the Exum pick. And for keeping Utah at or near the bottom for payroll for 4 years running. And this past summer...had a chance to use the MLE. But instead signed Niang who is not a prospect. And instead of getting Niko, kept the pick and drafted Allen, who also has pretty much zero trade value.

And some of you guys mocked me for saying we should try to trade for Tobias Harris.

Good trade for both sides. Big gamble for Philly if Tobias just leaves, but I doubt that happens unless Butler punches him in the face or something in practice.

The Clippers got Shamet so they could conceivably trade SGA and a package of expirings and picks to NOLA for AD.

Yea, the Jazz couldn’t come close to matching this deal. So I’m ok with them mocking you for it.

Lol okay...

But that wasn't their point. Their mockery was that the Clippers would never trade him. But I'm glad you're cranky early cupcake.

And we could have sent Favors and 2 unprotected 1sts which is very similar. The Miami pick might be the same as ours in 2021. And the Philly 2020 pick will be worse than our 2019 pick.

The main difference is that we are a West opponent.

I would be surprised if the Clippers are done. Their playoff hopes are probably shot now, and if they can get picks/expirings for Gallo, Beverly, Lou, they could be set for free agency and the AD sweepstakes this summer (or AD now already).

The Miami Heat trade pick is an elite asset. Clippers got super lucky.

Lmao.

Don't be daft man.

The Miami Heat are in cap hell and are potentially a garbage team in 2021. That's an elite draft pick. Utah would have to trade Mitchell if they want to beat that.
 
Gallo to Utah is certainly on the table now I would assume.

Interested to see if Gallo has enough buyers to get a first rounder. I think Utah would give theirs if they can't get Conley.
