2019 Trade Deadline Discussion

[Handlogten's Heros]

I think they held onto their pieces too long. The returns aren't going to be good. On a lesser extent they were stubborn last year when they literally wouldn't trade Tyreke for anything because the packages were "only 2nd round picks" and just let him go for nothing instead. Seems similar. They don't want to trade these past franchise cornerstones for salary relief and a meh pick.

Exactly... they should know that holding won't increase the value of an aging asset... clearly they do not.

Exactly - paying that kind of money for a guy who has not proven he can carry any type of offensive load and can't get to the line? No thanks.

we need guys who can create his own shot. Porter doesn't provide that. plus we can always find 3 and D prospects off of G-league/summer league anyways. just look at Ingles and Royce. they are everywhere nowadays.

What do Rockets get?

Shumpert and they get out of Knight's money (everything they do is to lower salary... pretty funny).

i remember i've seen jazz fans once argued whether we should hire Boylen as Corbin's replacement lol. we nicknamed him the "white Corbin" cuz the guy has that confused look written all over his face.

There wasn't one single person on this board that wanted Boylen. That was an "insider" pushing that it was a done deal. Might have even been Windhorst. Even the trolls couldn't pretend to endorse Boylen.

Totally fine with the porter trade. We probably could have beaten the offer for him or Parker, but I don’t think Parker is worth it and I’m not sold on porter for his contract.

Really happy both guys are staying in the east

This OP jr thing totally infuriates me. Jesus Christo. I can’t remember a worse run-up to the deadline since Ronnie Seiklay.

I think it's like

Rubio, Thabo, Udoh, Bradley, a 1st and a 2nd for Conley.

Gotcha. Thought I heard Favors was included and I wasn't a big fan of sending him and Rubio just for Conely.

 

[fishonjazz]

He's staying. Immediately after the trade Philly said that they plan on keeping Harris and Butler longterm. They are all in on a core of Embiid/Simmons/Butler/Harris.

We aren't getting Harris

I bet Cleveland planned on keeping LeBron

Parker has negative value. Chicago got Porter for nothing.

 

[SCS]

I have a feeling we might deal for Conley AND Mirotic

yeah. those were the dark days...

So my choices are to watch for crappy trade news or watch the Jazz play the Sun's. Worst Wednesday ever!
