2019 Trade Deadline Discussion

When will this fanbase learn that we are better off over trading for talent vs. signing somebody in FA... Our best option is selling the farm for somebody ala OKC trading for PG. There are around 10 other teams this off-season that will have similar or MORE cap space than the Jazz. "Waiting for the summer" is the dumbest strategy ever. Either make a move now or be stuck in 5-8 seed purgatory for the foreseeable future.
 
I could still see the MEM-TOR swap going down as TOR will be pushing all their chips in just like PHI did. East is wide open and if you can get to the Finals, GSW is showing some mortality this year.
 
I sit literally behind the visitor bench 6-10 times a year and I’ve lit’cherally never heard anything remotely racist.

Well then problem solved.

It’s a good thing the season is only 10 games long and the arena consists of one bench.

All of the former players who have complained about the racism of our crowd are merely lying.

Phew, glad we dodged that one.

Why would Memphis do that?
 
Sheer luck as he was an undrafted player that was cut by the clippers. Jingles’ success isn’t so much about the jazz finding him as it is about him working his *** off and improving. He wasn’t near the player he is today when he first joined the team. Jingles is a testament to hard work more than any outstanding scouting job.
I was talking about Joe Johnson. Ingles is the opposite of an ISO player...

JR Smith is a lying piece of ****. Who else complained about that?
 
? They're getting more assets. They added two rookie contract players and a 2nd rounder
Yeah you are correct on that. I was thinking Pistons could've used Bullock and Johnson as trade assets to get Conley but then I realize they are expirings which MEM wouldn't want.
 
Dawg....Iso Joe ain’t Ingles....

Signing iso joe at the very end of his career doesn’t exactly classify as signing a meaningful free agent.

Using this logic, shouldn’t we be congratulating the Nets for signing an aged Paul Pierce? How about the Suns for acquiring shaq?

Are we really going to base our success criteria on signing free agents on “big names who are 5 years past their primes?” If that’s the case I’m out. You win. We will definitely win GM of the year once we sign Steph curry and Klay thompson in 2030 so they can play a collective 10 minutes per game for us.
 
I think it's possible if TOR throws in some more sweeteners like Siakham if they were really serious. I don't think TOR would be that silly though.

Ya, they won't do that. Siakam is real good. Memphis would want some rebuilding assets, not just expirings.

Yeah, I don’t know, just pointing out you don’t know what you’re replying to. Keep up the great work though.

Let me know if I can help.
 
You do know that Conley will eat up 1/3 our cap for the next 2.5 seasons? While costing us assets. He is a slight upgrade over Rubio. We dont even need another guard to take the ball out of DM's hands. The trade makes zero sense.

All for a guy who has never been an allstar. Shoots 43%. Has never had a 40+ pt game or 15+assist game
What if the Conley trade is the only scenario the Jazz pickup Parker off the buyout market? Would that make you happy?

Take your race baiting garbage out of here.

Take some of those liquidated funds you got and buy a car to get to work.
