Trade deadline discussion

[LoPo]

it was a steal for Memphis. It saved them from the misery of having to overpay Mike Conley for over 30mil a year, giving Morant all the necessary minutes to develop his game, acquiring multiple rotation players and draft picks in the process. they wouldn't have gotten any better offer for Conley.

Exactly. There wasn't another team out there that wanted Conley especially that badly. Instead of grooming Don as a PG, we completely took the ball out of his hands.

If the trade had been something around Favors and picks, I could rationalize it better. When we gave up Crowder which depleted our "great 3 and D" options, any logical person should have known it was a bad idea.

It wasn't a great deal at the moment. Now that Jae has been a critical starter for two straight Finals teams while Conley has done nothing to elevate us in the playoffs, it's clearly an awful deal.

 

[LoPo]

We shouldn't trade Royce either though. We are all talking about defense, and he's a good defender depending on the matchup. We need more guys like Royce not less of them.

 

[LoPo]

I think something like this should be considered:

Boston gets Conley and Boban Marjanovic
Dallas gets Schroder
Jazz get Josh Richardson, Grant Williams and draft compensation from Dallas

Saves us a ton in luxury money while giving us two defensively oriented players. And draft compensation. Dallas has already been linked to have interest in Schroder.

Would that mean the Tank is on?

If the Jazz are trading to Conley to Boston, it would probably center around Smart and Dennis (Quin's guy).

Richardson and Williams are both dynamic defenders who can space the floor. Williams shoots 35%+ from 3 while Richardson shoots 40%.

 

[LoPo]

If the Jazz are trading to Conley to Boston, it would probably center around Smart and Dennis (Quin's guy).

If we can get Smart, I'm all for it. I just don't know how available he actually is.

If Quin wants Schroder, then this could be reworked.

So the Jazz get two guys who wont see the court in the playoffs and ****** draft picks for a top 10 PG? I guess Boston didnt finish ****ing us enough with the Hayward deal.

Excellent.

Smart is very available, probably one of the more likely players to be traded in the next year.

If we got Ainge's guy (Smart) and Quin's guy (Schroeder), It would make sense from the "NBA is all about relationships" perspective.

It would give us one more depth piece, but I'm not sure we need that. If we wanted to move on from JC, Dennis+Juancho could also be a BOS deal. Combine it all together and maybe you do Ingles+JC for Smart+Shroeder+Juancho.

We won't get Smart and Schroder for Conley. Smart and Hernangomez for Conley maybe

I don't see us trading Conley AND Clarkson

The players going to the Jazz.

Ask Mavs fans how good Josh Richardson was in the playoffs.

Grant Williams isnt playing over Rudy Gay.
