Speechless. We can’t trade Matty Ice. Too important.

If shooters are in such high demand, Bojan should have more value than we think.
Bojan to NY
Knox and #30 to Cleveland
Nance, #19 and #32 to Utah
Then I would offer #19 and Favors to the Lakers for Kuzma and #22. Buy low on Kuz.
With these trades, we....
- save $4 million (B&F $28.5 - N&K $23.5 + pick)
- get a stretch 5 in Nance
- get younger and more athletic
- get more depth
- get #22

Well, to be fair, we’re actually very likely coming out of the draft with zero NBA players drafting in the middle to late second round. Drafting at No. 30, that’s more like a coin flip.
The plan seems to be to overpay Conley and to do so, replace Niang’s and Favors’ rotation spots with vet minimum players. Oh, and trade a first round pick for the privilege of doing so.
How do these moves help with contending now? How do they help us get better in the future? Seems to me they do neither.
If we’re overpaying Conley and moving the pick to move Favors, an Ingles or Bogey trade seems like it has to happen for the narrative to be anything but “we ran it back tax-consciously, got a little worse, and didn’t really address any roster needs in any meaningful way.”

He looks like a solid rotation piece. Would be awesome to snag him.

The Jazz have a lot of options for the No. 30 pick in the NBA Draft. They also have a lot of factors to weigh. Let's sort through them.

So apparently Kuzma's stock is super low... was listening to the locked on Lakers guy on the general NBA pod... mentioned it was so low he was thinking of like Thompson for Kuzma just so they have a backup center.
I'm not a huge Kuzma fan... he's mediocre imo... but we are kind of in the bargain shopping mode. So eff it... lets do it.
But because of his contract he isnt a bargain.

Haha, I had the same reaction. “Doke and Hughes are our rookies.”
I mean, it's basically true. We never got to see either player in legit rotation minutes. If you want to get all pissy about the wording, go for it. I'm excited to see both players this year, regardless of when they were drafted.
