Trade Rumors Involving the Jazz

[Elizah Huge]

The closer we get to the deadline the more I hope we don't trade Vando. I have a feeling over the next couple of seasons he is going to make a pretty big jump on both ends of the court.

calling it now. vando doesn't get moved before the deadline. the jazz like him a lot and DA's asking price will be too high.

Funnily enough I think he’s the most likely to get traded.

i think most expect that. hence calling my shot now.

Pretty bold. I respect it.

 

[SoberasHotRod]

I would say that Beasley is the most likely to get traded. I don't think Ainge is a fan if the shimmy.

Trading Clarkson now would be a priority to me. At 31 years old this summer, he doesn’t fit our rebuild timeline. And he’s a 6th man type of player in a contender team, and we already have a similar younger guard in Sexton. Plus JC may well be eyeing free agency anyway because of his age - makes sense for him to want to play for a team that has a better chance to win a championship.

what can we get for him? Any ideas who might be willing to send back enough value,given league parity and the play in thing, that getting anything worth moving him has legs anyway?
I am kind of leaning towards, they don't get enough of an offer until right before the deadline, to justify moving him. But there are certainly a few teams that should have shown interest by now.
I would ascribe their opinon in the front office's here, to be one where JC is worth a mid first, provided the Jazz take back a different over 25 vet that is either hurt or not that good anymore and becomes our tank commander.
Shopping Mike should yeild them a couple of smaller contract players otherwise I am not trading him.

Beasley and Vando are two guys that I think are overvalued around the league right now, which makes it good timing to trade them....Vando has a chance to get better, I think Beasley is who he is but I wouldn't mind trading both.

Last chance to move Conley at any semblance of value as well.

I really want Mike mentoring our PG of the future, so value has to be good.

For JC, it depends on how the supposed contract discussions went (which JC denied he even had).. but if we trade him he is the best win now piece we are willing to give up.

 

[Handlogten's Heros]

They are in win now so JC? Sort of like a budget version of Jalen Brunson..

Still a weird trade. I guess we'd preserve the asset cuz DFS in under contract and JC is a FA.

Its just a weird one.

I think more contender level teams might see Beasley as the more win now choice unless they have injuries like the Suns

Depends with Mike. If he is healthy finishing the year his expiring contract has value just as an expiring. It might fetch a greater return this summer. I also don't think the offers are all that great tbh. Would not be surprised to see Mike finish his deal out here.

Agree on the others... I think their value has likely peaked... we don't have to move them of course but the window on them is now.

 

[Elizah Huge]

Conley for DFS/Powell is something I would do for sure.

 

[Elizah Huge]

I like HH’s idea of Vando to Indiana for a first.

Not totally crazy. Our FO been looking for forwards with more offense... so best case is he fits with Lauri and Kessler and he can at least temporarily be the 4 who can defend 3 and worst case is we ship him elsewhere later.

His contract is very movable and he might thrive in a system with more ball sharing.

 

[SoberasHotRod]

I'll repeat what I've said before, but I really hope we trade one/some of our guards. I would really like an extended look at NAW and would like to see him as part of the regular rotation.

I like DFS. Very nice contract and I think he’d fit in well with Lauri and Kessler. Doesn’t need the ball on offense like Clarkson or Beasley.

I can see that. Beasley is not a self-creator though so he needs to be fed... and JC is in the new "clutch player ladder" which is a good marketing speech.

 

[framer]

For an uninspiring trade, how about THT for Mo Bamba?

 

[Jingled]

Dorian Finney Smith is almost 30, trading for him seems like a win now move. Definitely not the trade rumor I expected to see this morning.

Jazz are going to get attached to every trade rumor because everyone assumes the Jazz are going to be sellers

DFS is not a forward with more offense. I think his contract is fine and movable so its a whatevs for me... just don't trade any picks for him. He's not some guy with an untapped offensive game though... if that is what you are hoping for I have really bad news for you. He's less offensively diverse than a guy like Royce for example. He's straight 3 and D.
