Trade Rumors Involving the Jazz

Wait... so the pick that became Darius Bazley, Grayson Allen, the pick that became Walker Kessler (who we now have), Jae for Mike who made an AS team is the worst trade in franchise history.

I get that it was our "shot" and it didn't hit but we need to chill. We didn't have a championship window and made a trade to hopefully open up a window... it missed that very high bar... it happens.

Yeah... I did NOT like that Conley trade at the moment it happened. I don't like it now either. But that's not the main reason we didn't win a championship.

Amen and amen. The narrative about the Conley deal has become silly. We took a shot (and at least we took a shot) and missed but that is what happens with most trades for most teams. I want to see a banner as bad as anyone but I am glad that I am a fan of a team that has many wins and as many playoff appearances as the Jazz do over the last number of years.

Anyone who thinks Mobley would be included in a package for Donovan is high off their ***.

I freaking wish so but no way CLE is trading him.

Haha beat me to it.

Someone said some **** like 2-3 dudes, one being Mobley AND we got picks in that scenario for Don.

Like, Jesus Christ you guys….

The general handling of the backup center position was so much more damaging while providing so little value. Investing two first round picks in backups and an MLE and BAE (or whatevs Davis signed) and then investing another first and some seconds to clear the books of those guys is sooooooooo much more damaging.

We are not trading Donovan mitchell for a package highlighted by Sexton. As Tony Jones mentioned, we can just sign Sexton.

If Spida were in then deal then it would be a package highlighted by Mobley, Sexton, and lots of draft picks.

Cleveland also had JC and got rid of him so I suspect they don't want him back.

My guess is that Cleveland would love a vet to mentor Garland. Conley for Sexton as the two main pieces makes sense. We get younger. They get a vet and don't lose Sexton for nothing.

lol does somebody think that? mobley is one of the most untouchable players in the league right now. they might not trade him straight up for durant.

Especially right now in his rookie contract. In a couple of years when he is due to get paid, and Allen already with his $100MM contract, they Cavs may be tight on money and be willing to move for the right price. No way they move Mobley off of his rookie contract for Mitchell. Maybe if we had seen playoff bubble Donovan this year too teams would value him more, but if we had bubble Don this entire team would likely look completely different right now.
 
It sounds like the Jazz are going to need to acquire a center based on JZ's comments in the Deseret News about Kessler entering the "Jazz developmental program." It sounds like some bus rides with the Stars are in the young man's immediate future.
