You're the GM this offseason. What do you do?

[Handlogten's Heros]

The Pellies are rumored to be trading the #4 pick for Lauri. That would be a good move for both teams. I wish we could trade for Lauri. But we dont really have an asset Chicago would want equal to #4 pick. We would still have room to chase Russell or whoever.

I don’t think that was a tumor as much as an idea.

No, that would be a horrible move for Chicago. Lauri's numbers track almost exactly like Dirk's first two years. Why do you think that would be a good move??

I'm bored at work... My Top 10 Predictions for the NBA Off-season (no particular order):

Kemba Stays in Charlotte

Kyrie and Tobias go to Brooklyn

KD goes to NY

Klay Stays in Golden State

Kawhi Goes to Clippers

Conley Traded to Detroit (Reggie Jackson, Leuer & #15)

Butler Stays in Philly

Middleton, Lopez and Brogdon stay in Milwaukee

Love Stays in Cleveland

Russell goes to Utah, Indy or the Lakers

I would be ok with all this.

Sure wish we had a chance a brogdon though

I think so too,

Lol almost all of those seem obvious and aren’t remotely going out on a limb other than the Conley deal which I don’t see happening.

 

[Keefe]

Windhorst today reporting that Kyrie is very likely to sign with Brooklyn. That means, D'Angelo is likely to be renounced to create space for another signing.

I think DLo signs with the Pacers. They’re in the East, have a more attractive star imo (obviously we don’t know what to expect from him coming off an injury), and a black head coach which I think helps in recruiting guys at times. Oh yeah, and they don’t play in Utah.

I didn't say "My Really Obscure You're Not Going To Believe This Crazy Unpredictable Top 10". It was simply my predictions.

And the Conley deal is the most logical deal of them all. Detroit has zero money, an expiring overpaid PG they hate, a very immediate window for success, and a 1st rounder better than Indy and Utah. Conley to Detroit makes sense.

Funny how things turn into rumors lol. From Sam Vecenie

This is complete speculation on my part as opposed to something I’ve heard is a real possibility, but my favorite potential deal out on the market right now is something centered around Lauri Markkanen and the No. 4 pick. With Wendell Carter in Chicago as the team’s center of the future, Markkanen’s place is a bit more precarious despite his terrific production in his first two seasons. His best defensive position in the modern NBA is almost certainly at center next to a rim-protecting 4. That possibility doesn’t really exist in Chicago right now. By using Markkanen, the Bulls could get the high-upside, offensively-creative lead guard they need in Garland. . . . In a world where fake trades will abound over the next few days, that’s a really fun one.

Lol. You think their star is more attractive than our two stars?

Tony Jones said he thinks they're the favorites. Russell was born and raised in Louisville which is only about 100 miles away from Indianapolis.

Yes.

I honestly think no one gives a damn about playing with Gobert.

So Rivals with everything Indianapolis related. That was my experience in Louisville. Who knows what his preference is though, its a pure guess at best.

But we are Jazz fans so we are all whomp whomp people. Most this board looks for the worst. We wont sign anyone and will suck forever, all our players suck, our FO sucks. Whomp whomp.

 

[Ron Mexico]

Yes.

Hey, sad sack. Where do you live at again? I am probably pretty close to you. How far are you from Delware?

 

[Roy_McAvoy]

If I were Dlo’s agent I’d tell him to go the Pacers. He’ll be a perennial all star in the East. In the West there’s no chance.

I think it's better than a pure guess. Ian Begley also reported that Indy is the favorite for D'Lo if he leaves Brooklyn.

He seems to have his pulse on Russell... Those Utah guys with their inside info that is accurate about other teams...

Lol, I’m about 1.5 hours from Delaware.

If you ever wanna come up, let me know bro.

I’m assuming you’re in Wilmington or Dover?

 

[Keefe]

I’m an hour and 40 from Wilmington.

We’re gonna overpay for Ariza.
