Gordon Hayward is also available for the vet minimum.....

Along with Lonnie Walker if you wanted to add athleticism at the guard position

so we go from a young team to the old foggies with a 2 second championship window? sounds like **** plan to me.

The reality of team building with the new CBA that championship windows are always going to be small.

I just read that Jazz actually havent officially submitted Juzang or Eubanks deals to league office.

Two plausible reasons why:
1) We are planning on frontloading Lauri's deal as much as possible
2) We want to use the capspace for something else than just Lauri R&E (e.g. some mystery trade + Lauri R&E)

Something is happening. It might be the most plausible thing (paying Lauri on a front load as much as possible) or it might be something else.....

So Ainge is suddenly dumb enough to trade for Kawhai?

Here’s the thing..

I think you need to watch some pre season football to take your mind off things….

Yeah, it would be so stupid to trade for a guy who just made All NBA 2nd Team

Give it a week tho and you'll probably start your own thread glazing the trade as the next best thing ala Filipowski

Brother I said it's the outline of the deal. Picks would be included. I just don't know what they would be and didn't feel like sitting down pondering the value of picks and what everyone would need.

Really wish people would read the entire post before commenting

Okay, well the Jazz would have to empty their pick war chest to both teams to make this happen.

No they wouldn't. They can probably make 3 Kawhi level star trades with the amount of assets they have.

No one wants to trade for Ingram currently. That's the genesis of the stuff being like a tiny bit possible.

The Pelicans can't afford to pay Ingram what he may want next year and they risk losing him for nothing (the market is supposedly dry). They also need another big. There's a world where you can use a single pick and offload Collins to get Ingram.

Like take away my fantasy land conspiracy of the Kawhi side of this. Just Ingram. I could definitely see the Jazz willing to part ways with one of their picks to get off Collins while getting Ingram. Danny loves to buy low and Ingram's value is the lowest it may ever be.

I've listened to the Locked On Pelicans podcast and the host doesn't even view Collins as a negative contract. They actually want Collins (just saying some of their fan base). They view him as a guy who would fit next to Zion in some lineups and provide big man depth.

Also the Jazz are currently on pace to draft 9 rookies in 3 years.

They can deal a pick or two and be fine. Let's not Pearl clutch all our picks.

Agreed. But I would rather wait until after we get our mvp in the 2025 draft to build around. Then let the pearls fly and hunt all the big game

Completely valid
