Trade Rumors Involving the Jazz

Listened to The Athletic podcast and they said Beasley should be one of the top trade targets for any team
It makes sense in part because the value, contract, skill set line up where he is worth a real first round pick and should be gettable. Like it matches.

JC is worth a bit more than a first, Vando on his own maybe not quite a real first, KO more likely worth some seconds.

Not sure JC is worth a first given he's a half year rental.

Depends on if the team thinks they can retain him I guess. I still think a 20 pt 4 assist guy is likely worth a first even if he's a rental... in the right situation.

He's extension eligible so a team like the Lakers could get some actual certainty if they wanted. Most of the cap space teams are trash... but maybe he'd go somewhere just for the dough.
 
Guess they should have hired Ainge then. Good damn luck.
The Jazz aren't desperate like Minnesota. If there are no trades that bring value or dramatically boost the team then just go into the draft/Summer and start it up again. I would give up 1st and a 2nd for Collins and a "relatively" good player, but that is it.
 

This kind of feels like an owner who wants to trim cap and get rid of Collins, with a GM who doesn't want to sell Collins and is listing a high price to still say that he tried and there just wasn't a market. I mean, you ask for double what is reasonable and work from there (unless you are Connelly, then you remove McDaniels, pat yourself on the back, and accept it), but his feels like asking for quadruple.
 
It sure seems that way. Never been this quiet.

Also Beasley being a top target tells there are not many targets. Albeit he is cap friendly and easy to just plug and play.
Most stuff happens close to the deadline… there are normally a few early deals… I think parity leads to some teams waiting as long as possible to pick a direction.
