Trade Rumors Involving the Jazz

There’s no way in hell I’m trading Vando to the suns let alone him and Beasley. Two of my favorite players on the jazz.
Vando is a fantastic tank piece to the puzzle. He’s a tanker this year but is only going to get way better. I’m convinced his 3 ball is only going to get better and I envision him becoming a very good play maker on this team, and defense and rebounding will only get better, like a Ingles highbred. Not as good a shooter but basically everything else Uber heightened.

Dude what are you talking about? Vando will never be the type of creator that Ingles was.
 
Basketball doesn't work like that where the 4 only plays at the baseline or in a certain position on the floor. They use Lauri all over the floor but more importantly he is the primary big man cutter. The reason why Collins has regressed over the last few years is that is his best role as well but he was displaced with the addition of Capela.
I'm not saying only.. modern ball is much more fluid. But that area near the baseline on the weak side is where a pf positions in classic half court zone system. If you are using classic designations, that is what it means.

Lauri does cut but rarely from corner and almost never from weak side corner. Did some baseline cuts early season but cant remember the last time he did that.

Only thing both Collins and Lauri both do fairly frequently is pick and roll as the roll man. In all other playtypes their ratios are very different.

Lauri is even listed as a SF in our official starting lineups for... every game.
