Trade Rumors Involving the Jazz

[Handlogten's Heros]

Nope from Jacob Eisenberg, a source close to KD, lol.

Until Windy, Woj, Shams, or Fisher say it I’m likely not gonna believe it. There have been a couple reports about how they aren’t all that excited about having a starting tiny backcourt.

Wutttttt?????? Are you ****ing kidding… AD went to the Lakers and they just gave up the 8th pick… Clips got Kawhi and PG and just gave up the 12th pick… it must be hard being this wrong.

Send him to the Heat then pray that Don and Bam both miss most of the season in 2-4 years. Great plan. Miami has picked inside the top 10 twice in 22 years.

So who's report are you basing your opinion on that the only team that wants Donovan is the Heat or that Herro/Duncan is the best we can do? Please share.

I mean yeah, Heat are a top 5 org with depth. I don't want their picks.

The thing about New York is that it might be necessary for them to test out their new team before they panic enough to trade for Donovan. They aren't going to be very good and they really need to be good.

Well it's a good thing that we're also not in a rush to move him then.

I'm beginning to believe that Rudy will bring back a better haul than KD. This helps me cope, somewhat. . .

They'll like land Barnes/OG/GTJ or Ayton/Bridges/Johnson with similar draft capital coming back.

No one was discussing a potential Rudy to Minnesota deal. If we start shopping Donovan I wouldn't limit the potential suitors to just 2/3 teams.

So if your Ainge do you ignor Donovan's preferred teams and trade him to whoever gives best offer?

Yeah that's what the Nets are doing. He has zero leverage with 3 years left on his contract.

Ainge reportedly told Donovan, and I quote, "we're going to do whatever's best for the franchise."

Do you think he takes less to send him somewhere he wants to be?

Yes I got your point but if you trade a star to a contending team you ensure you're not receiving good picks back. A team like the Knicks on the other hand...

This is totally beside the point I was making. But that aside, when did I even mention NYK or MIA?

You didn’t, I did. You said the main value that you get is your own pick from tanking. To which I replied only if you trade him to a good team/organization. Which is why it makes sense to trade him to the Knicks but not the Heat. The value can also be an additional lottery pick or two if you move him to a team you don’t think can contend
