    Will Lauri be traded on or before draft day?

    IMO, teams know why this past year was down for Lauri. I think it is most likely because the Jazz tanked and he didn't have any quality players around him. There will teams interested and making offers. I think the status of Giannis moving and maybe one or two other players that will be on...

    My son is…

    Do you really want your son growing up spending time and energy on a team that is typically relevant in the playoffs for a couple years out of every 50? Good for your son.

    2025 Off-Season Trade Ideas Thread

    That PG contract is brutal. I realize the Jazz have to hit a minimum salary and somebody has to get paid. I don't think I would want PG around my young team if he has any kind of negativity. I would want more from the 76ers.

    I believe Jazz standout Dante Exum was drafted 5th

    How bad/good is Cody Williams?

    I have wondered if the Jazz could put together a package to get his brother from OKC. I wonder if having his brother on the same team would help him.

    Jazz hire Carlos Boozer as a scout

    When the Jazz finish 5th next year and fall 4 spots to 9th in the lottery (OKC gets the pick and the Jazz miss out on the Boozer pick) does Carlos still have a job in Utah?

    Official "How Could We Trade Up" Thread

    I am old enough to remember Derek Haper (I believe Dylan Harper's uncle) nixing a trade to Utah when the Jazz were actually decent. He didn't want to live in Utah. I personally believe if the Jazz go after Dylan, they are going to get the same response. Maybe not immediately, but more in the...

    Who should we pick at #5?

    I vote for pure fire sale (Lauri, Collins, Clarkson) Try to get #2 or #3 & keep 5. It costs Lauri. What else can the Jazz get from SA or Philly? Unfortunately, if you deal with Philly, you probably have PG's horrible contract coming back.

    Like everybody, I am hoping for the #1 pick. That being said, I have a feeling after tonight's lottery, Ainge is going to work a trade with a couple veterans & maybe a pick or two to get into the lottery for a 2nd pick between 6-14.

    I am curious about Kam Jones. I like his size more than many of the projected 1st round PGs. His 3pt% dipped this year and he is a senior. I don't have the problem some people do with seniors (All I need to say is Desmond Bane was a senior) I am thinking early to mid 2nd round. Has anybody...

    Trade for Giannis?

    Yeah... how's that been going lately? I like the stockpile talent concept but it takes too long and you don't know how your draft picks are going to turn out. We all know Utah has a problem bringing in big names in free agency so the main way to get a big name is trade or draft and hope. I...

    Trade for Giannis?

    Somehow he gets to the Lakers or Celtics

    I believe Tony Jones also said he would take Tre 3rd (if the Jazz fell to #3)

    I may be wrong, but I believe Wilkins was another black player that didn't want to play in Utah and kinda forced Utah's hand.
