Trade Rumors Involving the Jazz

[Handlogten's Heros]

BTW… it’s not weird to talk trading Lauri… we traded Rudy and Don last year… it’s been a “sports radio” type thing thrown out… it’s simply a what if… it has a low likelihood of happening and if it did I’m somewhat convinced most would agree with the decision. My guess is it would be #3 pick plus some other stuff if Ainge was compelled to complete the deal. I doubt Portland would overpay… but that’s what it would take… and it’s a scenario that could materialize… like a 2-3% type of scenario.

Ideally we could find a way to get #3 without Lauri or Kessler.

It's weird

It’s not… it happens all the time… a notable super fan of a EC finals team is wondering if trading Brown for #3 is something. It’s natural for fans and humans to consider what-ifs.

Bill Simmons is also weird. I'm not saying you can't do it, but so far every one I've read has been absolutely dumb

Nah… his appeal is that he’s a sports guy that does sports guy things. This is a fan board where we can go wild. It’s weirder to not consider every path this team can take.

Your welcome to do whatever you want, but others are welcome to say the **** you're doing sucks

Why do some of y’all have to be such dicks on a message board or whatever

How are you arguing this. Yes, we traded our to top players in favor of a rebuild. We luck into an all nba caliber player and what? We going to trade him and start over AGAIN!! One year later?? We’d be the laughingstock of the NBA. Star players don’t exactly grow on trees. We were gifted a franchise player to jump start our rebuild and have assets to add a star or several really good players to add to Markkanen and Kessler. There is zero reason to talk trading Lauri unless a Booker, or Giannis is involved.

Isn’t the idea of a rebuild to get stars and this rebuild accidentally gave us one while initiating the rebuild? So what is there to talk about in regards to building the team using Lauri?

Actually during the trade deadline actual sports media on Twitter we’re talking about a hypothetical Markkanen to the Kings trade for Murray and picks. The overwhelming consensus was if Ainge turned a throw in from the Mitchell trade into even more assets it would be god-tier ****.

Portland fans are split on Markkanen for 3 let alone plus more. Around the league he isn’t as highly thought of as on here. People want to see if he can sustain the year he had and see if it’s real.

It’s ok though the same clowns who called me and idiot and a dumb*** etc for talking about Gobert trades still don’t get it.

There are rumors that Brown doesn’t even want to play for Boston. So that needs to be explored. Talking about dumping Markkanen serves basically no purpose unless you’re upgrading Markkanen.
