Lavine?

Any Lavine takers? He is under contract for the next 3/4 years (player option). Lifts your talent level Immediately. Obviously he is not the ”future” but if we are trying to make the playoffs, he could really help.

What would you trade for him? Obviously you need to add contracts…THT (send him home), Sexton and Olynik gets this deal done with 1 or 2 FRP.

would you do it? I think I would…
 
Yes - but I’d prefer if it were a guard consolidation trade. Ideally lose two of Clarkson, THT, Dunn or Sexton.
 
I think it's too early in the rebuild to make a trade like this. While it raises our overall talent level it doesn't take us to contender status. I think the team should honestly tank one more year while working to trade away the pieces that don't fit. Let Keyonte develop. See what you have in Hendricks and Sensabaugh. Can they fit next to Lauri and Kessler? Figure out who the core players will be moving forward and make sure it's a group that won't be played off the court come playoff time then make a move like this
 
Fun facts:
The other day when he dropped 51 points on the Pistons he had 0 in the assist column (only Klay has ever done 50+/0).

Previous day Raptors had shut him down to the tune of 8 points on 14 FG.

Heres the kicker:
Chicago lost to Detroit by 16 and beat the Raptors in OT by 1.
 
He does have a pretty hefty salary but I think I could be convinced to make the trade. If THT's defense was as good as it should be I would want to keep him out of the trade, but it hasn't been for whatever reason. Lauri and Zach have already been done, but I think Zach also gives the jazz a much more intriguing trade chip to upgrade with.
