Potential Trade Targets

[FalseFlagg K]

I would probably be down if he were a heliocentric offensive superstar rather than a heliocentric offensive really good player. Superstars tend to be on the all star team yearly. He misses the all star game more than he makes it.

I don't know how you trade a guy who wants to be here, when there are so few around. If he'd take bit of a cut on his next contract to stay here ( highly unlikely) why not sign him and keep his versatility? I know he's supposedly out of the timeline but shorten his minutes and have him for emergencies. He seems like a great locker room guy and he's easy to like. His defense is questionable but with the right guys around him maybe it works.

I agree. Every team needs players who do the kind of things KO does. However, we traded a HOF player who wanted to be here when we could have traded Donny and made a run at building around Rudy.

Except that it's not.

Trae is a *career* 26 ppg player.

The dude made the conference finals with his 2nd best player being John Collins.....

That's already extremely cheap.

Keyonte would be tough to give up. Hendricks is the equivalent of giving up a pick in the 20's. Which 3 picks would be the tough part.

Get off the bus with that… Tay henny way more valuable than a pick in the 20s

I personally don't like Trae's style of foul baiting. But if Jazz would trade for him, it would be ok. It would for the least give a real playoffs series for the Jazz. And if it's not good enough, he could be moved later on. One of the biggest pros would be allow this team to see how good actually our bigs are with a more competent pg.

Walker Ross Kessler is very good at extending his hand when someone is throwing the sphere at the goal, and this extended hand “causes” the sphere to conjoin in a new trajectory that is not commensurate with scoring. On offense he requires assistance, Rayford Trae Young would complement him subliminally.

Don't know if this is old news or new news. Tony almost never comments on potential trades tho.

The latest comes from Jazz beat writer Tony Jones of The Athletic, who was asked if Jordan Clarkson would be open to the idea of being traded to the New York Knicks when he joined ESPN 700’s The Drive with Spence Checketts. “I can tell you just from my conversations with people around the situation, I think that Jordan [Clarkson] would welcome a trade [to the Knicks] if that’s how it would go down. There’s another team out west he would welcome a trade to. I’m not going to say the name of that team and the reason why I’m not going to say the name of that team is because there’s very little chance of that trade happening.”

If we trade for Trae it better be cheaper than Tay/Key and 3 picks.

A different angle of looking at this is would we have traded Donovan for Trae back when we had him? I believe that’d be a resounding no for most people. To turn around and give that same kind of haul for Trae makes much less sense in that context.

Yeah, he is currently, but every year he shows who he really is, the value is going to get closer to his true value (which is not a lottery pick). He's going to be a solid role player, but currently you can still pass him off as having high potential to any team that was high on him pre-draft.

Am I missing something? Trae would be awesome here.

haven't they continually talked about Championship being the only goal ?

Trae Young is bringing nobody a championship


Except maybe my old Boronia B grade squad

Dude put up 48 against the Bucks before they went on to win the FInals that year.

Well when would this trade happen lol. Is it happening in 1-2 years or this offseason when he still has potential. The opposite is also true. If he comes in and shows some flashes his value skyrockets.
