**** noTo note - I'm still team Rudy, but if we do trade him I like the GS package as it's more of a teardown package.
3 way with PDX/PHI? Probably needs some balancing, but I don't hate the basics.

Simmons to Utah
Gobert to Portland
Why do the need Rudy? They have budget Rudy.My preferred trade partner is Atlanta. The have a lot I like and there has to be some moves there that make sense for both teams.

There are a lot of teams desperate to make the playoffs out there…This is the problem. I don't even want to imagine the trash we'd have to take on to get out of his deal
The reasons you want to keep Bojan and Clarkson are the same reasons why they have trade value.Ingles, Niang and O'Neal should go too. They always do nothing for the Jazz during the playoffs. Bodan and Clarkson I'd rather keep around again for sure.

Ingles has about zero trade value. Once again he was exposed in playoffs. Just like last year..The reasons you want to keep Bojan and Clarkson are the same reasons why they have trade value.
We keep O’Neale for sure. We can and should just let Niang walk because he’s a free agent. Ingles might have some trade value, but he is aging. A team looking for cap space next year might want him because he is expiring, but we won’t get anything significant for Ingles.
Bingo. I don't get Rudy hate. Everyone in league knows he can't guard guards but Quinn left him out thereJazz getting exposed by small ball line ups are Rudy's fault? If you answer yes, you're saying that FO did a great job building the roster this year and that our perimeter defense is fine as it's all just one man's fault.
I watched multiple centers attack Clippers Defense for lack of size. Even Gobert had stretches where he was all over the boards. They should gets him some easy lobs like Capela gets in Atlanta. The offensive system isn't good enough to win in playoffs. I would build around Donovan and Rudy and look for a 3rd star , I would look for a PG and push Donovan to the 2 spot or you can run Dom at the 1 and get a solid 3. They need to get Rudy involved on offensive end too. This living and dying on 3s and Donovan shooting 30 times a game is a recipe to go home early in playoffsRight now I’m guessing Gobert had very little trade value. If the Jazz were unable to be successful with him what would make any other team think they could be?
Maybe Thibs would love the chance to have Gobert, but you’re not getting much of value back from New York.
I said earlier and will say again, we should not trade Rudy. We should put better pieces around him and Donovan. Rudy was really bad this game, no doubt, but so was our entire defense.
Everyone wants to keep avoiding the truth that you can't win with a High Volume Scorer as your best player. Gilbert Arenas, TMac,Carmelo, D.Wilkins all say hello. All was all stars, all won lot of regular season games and come playoff time all went home early. I know Donovan is loved here in Utah but we need to look at history that you can't win with a player like him. Best thing he could do is start training with Stockton or a Point guard in general. He needs to learn to play make for others because Jazz to easy to guard. Force Donovan to shoot alot and lock all others up. It's what Nuggets did in game 7, Clippers in Game 6. People will bash me but just wait until Four more years of this and then y'all will see where I was coming from
lmfao. Go ahead and show us the examples of teams winning built around a center who has zero offensive moves. Especially in the small ball, perimeter era. The ‘heart and soul’ of our team needs to be way less soft. Couldn’t punish the Clippers whatsoever for going super small. That’s a massive problem.Everyone wants to keep avoiding the truth that you can't win with a High Volume Scorer as your best player. Gilbert Arenas, TMac,Carmelo, D.Wilkins all say hello.
