2023 Trade Rumors and Gossip Involving the Jazz

Among the things Tony Jones mentioned on radio interview today:
  • His own (personal) preference for Jazz at PG is Austin Reaves; would offer max. But thinks Lakers are going to match anything offered.
  • Strongly thinks Jazz top priority is more playmaking at this point
  • Again emphasized positional length for all positions (though threw out a few name for PG possibilities without much length)
  • Said Jazz had removed Cam Whitmore from draft board (I'm personally interpreting this as the Jazz felt Whitmore, GG would be better as "second draft" options than being the team to draft them initially)
  • Confirmed that Jarace Walker was higher on Jazz's board than Hendricks; that George was higher than Jordan Hawkins
 
it's not hard. i watched the early games and it was clear hardy wasn't playing him. i mean, it's not really up for debate. he averaged 3 minutes a game in november and 6 minutes a game in december. then 18+ in january. so fish is right, it took hardy about half the season before ochai started seeing consistent, regular, minutes.

Worst part about Jazzfanz is the constant rehashing of bad takes.

Indy would have no reason to trade back with us if we're trading up for Walker (who I think is a great fit there).
 
I certainly like the idea of FVV. He's a great player and has all the intangibles, but he takes bad shots and he's a liability in the playoffs with his size. It's such an easy pass for the Jazz at this point, especially if you're in a bidding war with the Rockets

He got a vote for Finals MVP once.

I wonder if the consensus 1-8, less Whitmore were their top 7 and maybe add Bilal to their top 10 board?
