2019 Trade Deadline Discussion

Interesting so he doesn't think that there is any worse place for a Mexican or Pacific islander than Utah? That's weird.

Aye. Fun fact, for all the complaining people do about how white Utah is, out of all the states, it is only the....

Wait for it...

17th whitest state. All but three (Idaho, Montana, Wyoming) are east of the Mississippi. Maine is #1, followed by Vermont then West Virginia.

None of the top 10 have a pro sports team, but 5 of the states ahead of us do. Pennsylvania comes right after us.

Really, when people mock Utah’s whiteness, they mean Mormon (which to be fair is largely redundant ).

I think now Conleys preference to avoid Utah is to go to the Eastern conference since the playoffs are a cakewalk. Which I get. If he doesn’t come here then I hope he goes East.

If Allen is enough to get the deal done then we should definitely do it.

Yeah, but Utah is going to hold out til the last moment to see if Memphis budges.

Yeah that’s probably right. Utah is weird and not in a cool Williamsburg, ATX, PDX kinda way

I wake up at noon expected a woj bomb and instead I found out Conley doesn't want to be in Utah. Worst day ever.

Regarding players not wanting to come to Salt Lake, I don't think it's about 'racism' so much as being a small, quiet town in the mountains that lacks the diversity and excitement of other cities. It's about being a cool place to hang.

Conley is a quiet married older guy though. He should be the type who is fine with Utah.

I'm living refresh-to-refresh. Need to make something happen so I can get back to my life.

Yep. I’m a city boy so I’m biased but yeah, it’s kinda dull (that’s not all bad since it’s clean and mostly safe.)

There’s also the financial component-we don’t get a lot of attention as a small market. That means fewer followers, less exposure, fewer endorsements, less non-salary money. It’s understandable.

No let’s keep ******** on utah

That too. So like, we’re the worst of the small markets when u figure in the vanilla thing lol

 

[NAOS]

Yeah I think it’s just looked at as boring

If my contact at work prohibited me from skiing, rock climbing, motorcycling, etc...... well then, SLC would be boring af

They can still hike. 3 years of awesome hikes Conley!

Id say we're above Minnesota, Indiana, Milwaukee, OKC, and maybe SAC in that regard.

That scene in Boyz n The Hood where they go hiking and skiing and rock climbing is so good

Same here

Indianapolis has way more diversity, I’ve heard good things about Minneapolis. Maybe can agree with you on the others

This has got to be the dream deadline outcome, right?

 

[enchilada_style]

Mike will love the hikes and the 6 Barnes and Noble locations.

And his wife is white.

Let's face it, it matters .
