Potential Trade Targets

No interest in him. I’d rather trade for an actual star. I’d rather wait till the mavs implode and Luka asks for a trade. Mikal isn’t going to help us contend he’s not an Alfa #1 option

Trading for an "alpha #1 option" is not an easy thing to do. In fact, the Jazz have never traded for anyone of that caliber. So you might have to wait for another hundred years.

Plus there are a handful of teams hording capital (players and picks) waiting for a star to come available. Even when that star is available he'll have option and some say in where he goes. Its just not likely that we are going to get a top star.

Exactly. You have to of course try and go for it, but you can't rely on that as your main strategy.

We also have never been equipped like we are now with assets about ready to burst out the *** to use in trades. If a star comes available the only team that can out bid us is OKC.

And that's why you trade for a guy like Bridges. Because having Lauri and some other dudes isn't enough for a star to be convinced it's a championship team. Whereas Lauri, Bridges and some other dudes (plus still lots of picks) looks different to a Luka or anyone.
 
I don't follow him closely, so is he mainly a sf, and how much has he played sg position? Asking for a friend that would like to us also go after Deni Avdija in the rfa unless Wizards trades him out, so could you play Deni and Mikal together?
 
Deni signed a reasonable extension. Bridges and Lauri are both off the ball offensive players. You would need a ball dominate pg to balance things out. In other words it would work defensively but offensively you would need someone to step forward.

Mikal scares me because he costs near superstar value but doesn't have close to a superstar impact.

And that’s the problem. We get him we aren’t getting a star and we are damn near in the same position we were in before we blew it up. The only difference would be all the picks we have but if we pay Markkanen and make a trade for bridges I don’t think we have room to add a star.
