Lakers-Jazz Trade

Only way I would keep him is if he lead the league in scoring and the Jazz were a play in team that lost but somehow got the 2nd pick. Then I'd be willing to do the two small backcourt thing again with Sexton/Scoot
Sex and Scoot is what I do to Hearskys mom when I’m in a hurry.
 
You’re telling me you’d rather have Jovic and their 2023 1st opposed to their 2028 or 2029 1st?
No, but I don’t think the Jazz are getting any more future unprotected picks outside of a Westbrook buyout.

Trader Dan maxed out while he could. They’re going to have to settle for protected 1sts, 2nds and swaps from here on out. Maybe a young guy with promise if they’re lucky.

I would love the Milwaukee top 4 protected 2025 pick from the Knicks for any of Bogey or Clarkson.

I would be truly shocked if Bogey didn’t net us an unprotected 1st.
 
The Pat Bev deal is nauseating regardless. Not to mention added an extra player to our roster.
Yeah. Should’ve held out on that and waited until he could aggregate with other players. Unless THT gives them decent play early and they can flip him it was a missed opportunity.
 
We have plenty of picks the years of the Lakers picks, and I’m not convinced they’re gonna be lotto picks. I’d rather have some picks in other years.
 
Bogey/Conley/Vanderbilt for Westbrook is only a 459K difference in salary.

If it’s for both firsts I think Beasley ends up in the deal with Vando and Bogey.

Bogey/JC/Vando/Beasley for Westbrook/Nunn and two firsts. I could see the package in your post getting is one.

That one is only a 508K difference in salary. Truly wild how good of a fit we are with them trade wise. Almost makes too much sense not to happen.

I’m also on the record saying I’m completely fine only getting one of those firsts.
 
I think he’s right but there’s a huge catch. He’s talking about unprotected picks like 2023 from the Suns or Heat, which are kinda unprotected in name only. Maybe there’s some really distant injury possibility, but in reality they’re in the 20s.

More likely not they are in the 20s but I think you really have to factor the small margin or error and the play in. The East is so tough… a couple nagging injuries or slumping players and you end up in the play in… an injury at the wrong time (like the clips had with PG and Covid) and you got yourself a lotto pick.
