Donovan Mitchell Trade Threads

No way Portland would accept this trade. LILLARD is a legit star

Portland would accept that in a New York minute dog. Dame in his mid thirties at like 50m per year for a multi year deal, or Don right before he enters his prime at like $30m a year with a few more years left?

If someone doesn’t make that deal it’s either cause they are all in for the next year with no regard for the future, or they’re an idiot. Nothing in between.

Who’s going to get Ayton the ball?? This is a horrible idea

Who’s gonna get Ayton the ball? Don, or a secondary playmaker like I suggested. Could be Conley if we kept him, however I’d prefer someone bigger and younger if possible. Ayton is a great player, seems like a good personality, we’d be younger, Ayton is more well rounded, has a solid 2 way game, still lots of growth potential. It’s not far fetched in the slightest, I’m not suggesting vucevic here.

I just don’t think it’s smart to trade away an all-nba caliber guard with 3 years left, before his prime, only to go into a rebuild and hope you get another guy that’s as good but with a different personality. Not too mention the difficulty of getting all of a good supporting cast for that player. Statistically, that has got to be a horrible gamble; an emotional move without an objective calculation.

Earlier this year everyone was talking about how Brown and Tatum might need to break it up, what a gigantic mistake that would’ve been, and it’s only been like 2 months since they turned it around and they dominate. Get Don and Rudy and the right prices around them and we’ll kill. I’d much rather take a 2nd-3rd round annual contender than 8 ****** lottery years followed by 5 years of trying before the cycle repeats itself.

If we traded one I’d be interested in Rudy for Ayton, then go after Jeramy grant. running it back with Don, ayton, grant, and bogey looks promising to me, then get some secondary playmaker to put next to Don that’s taller than 6’3”.

Don’t think if we trade one we are totally out, that seems like an over reaction to me.

Why would Phoenix trade Ayton for Gobert?

Great, now we only need to score 130 a night to win consistently

A critical piece you haven’t mentioned is that because of how over-leveraged the Jazz are (and it really, really, REALLY did not have to be this way) with draft picks, the Jazz are backed into a corner with no way to improve.

Their two stars could stop being assholes to each other and they'd improve dramatically.
