Revisiting the Spida Trade

[The Jazz Wonderbra]

Assuming the Cavs new what we all know now about what they had in Lauri and Kessler... let's do a hypothetical re-visit of the spida trade

Who do the Cavs keep in a Redo of the trade? Kessler? Or Lauri? You can only keep one of them. Both come with their salary considerations (Lauri @ $17 million for 3 years blooming to $50 million - Kessler on his rookie scale contract with a pay raise coming when Jarrett Allen expires (roughly).

If they keep Lauri they trade Issac Okoro and Caris Lavert to match salary. If they keep Walker, they give us an extra 1st round swap (not sure they could).

What do the Cavs do?

I ask the question because I think it plays into our perceived value for Kessler and Lauri.

Kessler was obtained in the Gobert trade from Minnesota.

Lauri, Sexton, ochai and like 4 or 5 draft picks for Donovan was the trade iirc.

Three picks and a swap

If Donovan would have stayed in Utah, you keep a talent like that. I think he had one foot out the door. Based on that, the trade was excellent. Getting Lauri plus the picks was a good haul.

Two swaps, 26 and 28. Tho 26 won't be used.

2025	1	-	OKC	UTA's 1st round pick to OKC protected for selections 1-10 in 2025 and 1-8 in 2026 (if UTA has not conveyed a 1st round pick to OKC by 2026, then UTA's obligation to OKC will be extinguished) [OKC-UTA, 7/30/2021; OKC-UTA, 1/4/2022]

Jazz need to suck next year too.

Where could have gone? The Jazz misread the market because it was hard to see the Brunson thing in NYK happening. I doubt Donovan would have left.
