Trade Rumors Involving the Jazz

The thing for me is that I wouldn’t like to give up Vando. I like his hustle, offensive rebounding, and awareness for playmaking. He has to improve his shooting of course, but I think he can. I’d like to see what he brings next season before considering moving him.
The thing is, you can't really play Vando with Kessler. You swap him for Collins you can comfortably start Kessler, have serious size, and move Olynyk to 4th or 5th big ciming off the bench, where he is supposed to live. You can now move further away fro Gay as well as you have enough offensive punch.

Additionally, by moving Beasley, you open up playing time for NAW and Abajji. One of them is going away when Sexton comes back, which would be a damn shame. I love Beasley, but I like the idea of seeing what Abaji and NAW REALLY have before the draft.

I dont think him and kessler not being able to play together is a huge deal. Neither player is really worth being a 30 mpg kind of guy and both are probably better in the 22-26 mpg range. Dont think you have to move one right now until the future situation becomes more clear. Like maybe Kessler is very good and is a 30+ mpg kind of player which makes JV harder to play for his 24ish MPG. Or maybe the Jazz acquire a really talented/versatile 5 (Wemby fingers crossed) and you are better off with JV getting more minutes rather than Kessler.
 
Here is the Collins deal I will do... We move Beasley/KO for JC and we get the right to swap the Brooklyn pick with the Hawks pick but allow them to top 10 protect it. If it falls in the protections we get two second round picks. I can be talked into Vando (they should prefer KO though for fit reasons) but I'd say the swap is 2023 top 10 protected or it goes to 2025 or 2026 in connection with the other picks and swaps we own.

I’d do Beasley/Vando straight up anything extra is pure delicious gravy.
 
The biggest concern (outside his contract, as that is some money for some time) over bringing Collins in could be a good chunk of his game be around the same variety of shots we look Markkanen for ?

Yes but is that a Gobert/Mitchell return for JC?

I want gravy... mashed potatoes without gravy.... super boring. Add gravy and I'll each a dump truck full of that!
 
You've got to go out on a limb sometimes because that's where the fruit is.

Daring is doing. Daring is asking something outrageous despite your chances of failure and rejection. Daring is going out on a limb by believing in something that no one else understands, and if all fails, daring is trying again.
Me in a nutshell. I believe in a lot of things no one understands, and fail multiple times a day. Never knew I was so daring
