Woj says the Jazz are listening to offers for Mitchell

[Handlogten's Heros]

Here is my left field theory... we have a deal with Toronto (they ain't sending Scottie for KD) that we like... We get Toronto's picks unprotected and OG/Trent Jr. who we are routing to a team like Sacramento or NO for a couple unprotected picks (NO owns LA picks unprotected we'd want).

So now NY can pony up the 7-8 picks they need to or miss out on him.

Circumstances appears to make us forget what DM is capable of when he's at 100% within a healthy group... neither of which happened last season.
The godfather haul is mandatory here.

So isn't Trading Mitchell and tanking for 2023 the best plan, considering we have our own 2023 pick (correct?). I'm not sure which of our own picks we still have, but I think Locke said we don't have our own 2024 pick. As of right now I don't think we have any picks for 2024 (unless we get one in a Mitchell Trade).

Our 2024 pick is top 10 protected.

Mitchell hasnt talked to anyone from what people are saying. People who are close to him cant even reach him. He's gone MIA on the Jazz. An agreement doesnt need to be made.

Which only supports Huge’s notion.

I think after DM is traded we are going to figure out if he is a winning player, or a high volume scorer that doesn't actually help you win.

Part of me wonders if DM asked for this once he saw that the return for Gobert wasn't going to do much for the Jazz in 22-23. Can't blame Gobert any more.

Good. Send him to the Knicks for 6 picks

Players with zero All-NBA nods don't get that sort of return.

Perfect. Let's suck for two years and then wreck the league.

I want what's best for our basketball team in the long run.

I think numbers 1/2 is really good for us.. if its number 3 he still gets out but the return is likely worse.

3 has the same effect as 1/2 Donovan doesn't want to be the bad guy and publicly demand the trade. We've been hearing that for awhile, and I believe it. Don cares a lot about what people think about him.

Whether this is good or not is whether or not we take the RJ Barrett bait.

Ok. 8 picks then.

I think 1/2 indicate we have leverage... 3 indicates he wants out but doesn't mean we have leverage. The trade will be the trade regardless of the list.. and we may never know.
