Beverley to Lakers for THT and Stanley Johnson

A 34 year old point guard who has vocally expressed his desire to play for a contender is by far the best player if you are building a team?

Are you high?
No… if you are building a team for the current year around Don Bev is way better… Idc about age. His deal is expiring as well… THT isn’t good. He has a ****** deal that allows no upside… this is a bad deal.

Bev also just came in and mentored a group and got a losing culture to the playoffs… sorry he’s too old for ya… but he helped the guys in Minny and will come on and do his ****ing job… it’s what he does.
 
Also Pat Bev and Westbrook on the same team is content gold
Westbrook def getting traded now. I’m just gonna pretend this is step one of the Russ to Utah trade and evaluate it when the rest of the deal happens.
 
I like this trade.

PB wasnt getting you a first round pick.

Second rounders dont do too much for me.

We need someone with talent on the roster now for Will Hardy to sink his developmental teeth into. THT is a good project.
 
Who cares about that, we're a sinking ship regardless of if we trade Don now or later.
Fine… then give me the extra 11 M in cap space next year. Anytime you can downgrade and also take on money while doing it you have to I guess.

Awesome… if he’s good he gets paid or bails… if he sucks we get to pay him next year to keep sucking. Gotta at least get something for the money aspects.

Bev by himself wasn’t getting a first… Bev plus some other guys gets you a first though.
 
Confusing move. Not bad, not great… is it a sign of something more or is it a sign that the Jazz are done and just balancing the rosters?
 
Good trade! but boy THT is a classic ball hog lol The ball sticks to his hands. We have to trade Clarkson and DM now lol
 
I don’t even kind of understand this given THT’s contract situation unless we are planning to flip THT right now for seconds or something.
