Trade deadline discussion

We should discuss the concept of diminishing returns.
 
According to the Athletic this is what the Jazz are doing: "League sources tell The Athletic that the Jazz are in the market for a defender — a perimeter defender, to be more specific. The Jazz would also like that player to be an above-average shooter, if possible, as shooting is the dominant skill of the roster in its entirety. And that’s where things get more difficult. The Jazz aren’t looking for a surefire rotation guy. They are happy with their rotation, happy with their chemistry and happy with the direction the season is going."
 
It's ****ing crazy that BOS may move Smart in the Aaron Gordon deal. Smart should be worth 2 firsts on his own like Covington was.
Their locker room is a mess based on what media folks are saying.

I’m cool with a guy that creates locker room issues by being competitive. Although Rudy and Marcus may end up in several locker room shouting matches.

I read the whole article the other day... It seems like the preface to the DL press conference where he declares Miye Oni to be our big deadline acquisition.

Soooooo. . . Oni then.
 
I would love to send bogey and a couple firsts to Chicago for LaVine. Doesn’t fix our perimeter D but gives us an upgrade on the offensive end as well as youth.

actually Lavine has apparently improved a lot on D, which is good

Meh...Rudy and Smart are on the same wavelength. I thought the same thing when Jimmy Butler was in the trade rumors. Obviously you put a Rudy/Butler type with guys who don't work and it's a problem. But when that overwhelming competitiveness becomes your culture it's a good thing to have.
