The advantage the Jazz have in the upcoming negotiations is that Kessler has not made much as an NBA player yet. His rookie deal is worth just over $13 million, which obviously is an obscene amount of money, but little compared to what decent NBA players make. Kessler is due to sign a contract...

It is too early. I`d rather trade Sexton, Collins and Clarkson for Lillard, and what they have left of picks to trade: The option to either get their 2031 1st round pick or swap it with ours or Phoenix`s The option to either swap their 2032 1st round pick with ours or get it outright if we...

If he doesn`t improve, do we even pick up his 4th year option next year?

I really don`t want us to be the team who overpays Keyonte on his second contract if he has a good scoring season next year. I have a hard time seeing him being more than a scorer off the bench kind of guy and I don`t want us to have to give him a Quickley-type deal.

I'd rather trade him to New Orleans for Dejounte Mirray and their pick. That would ensure another tear of tanking.

I`ve been thinking about some trade ideas for the off-season to get my mind off this terrible season. I am all in on the tank, but look forward to having a good team to cheer for again. The proposed trades are ambitious as I`m aiming for upside. They are very likely unrealistic and probably...

They could add some swaps in the years they already have swaps with us and San Antonio, Phoenix-style. The swaps would likely not bring much value, but could be added on top of the assets you mentioned.

Yes. We had the agreement in place, but before the trade became official, we sent him to Detroit and Schroeder was never officially a part of the Utah Jazz as far as I can tell. As we all can agree on, this does not matter at all. My mind is juck a ****ing wasteland from time to time and I get...

Neither do I.

Yes. KJ Martin (from Pistons via Sixers) Josh Richardson (via Heat) 2028 second-round pick (from Pistons via Sixers) 2031 second-round pick (via Heat) Cash considerations (via Heat)

"Golden State has officially traded Dennis Schröder to the Detroit Pistons, who also received Lindy Waters III and a second-round pick from the Warriors. The Pistons announced the move as “part of a series of transactions,” part of the mega-trade that saw Jimmy Butler dealt from Miami to Golden...

I agree, but I wasn`t arguing that. I was arguing the dude/dudette who said that his salary would fall to 22% of the salary cap.

That can`t be right. If the salary cap grows with 10% every year remaining of Lauri`s deal and his numbers at Hoopshype are correct, he is at 30% this year and next, 27,1% in 2026-27, 26,6% in 2027-28 and 26% in 2028-29.

His season highs in 2020-21 and 2021-22 were both against the Jazz, according to Wikipedia. 27 points in his rookie year, 20 in the second year. The 27 were his career high until he scored 31 against the Grizz in 2023.

If this was one and the same deal, we never had him. But nevermind, I am just hung up on this stupid detail for some bizarre reason.

"Dennis Schröder is being rerouted to the Detroit Pistons as part of the Jimmy Butler deal, sources tell me.

In the same deal?

I know I am nitpicking here, but if this was a part of the Butler deal, how can Schroeder have been traded to us before he went to Detroit?

If he wants to leave, what is the big problem? The other 29 teams have clearly stated that they don`t value these kinds of players so we could easily replace him with a similar type.

Why did Obi Toppin get more than the MLE from the Pacers? Teams tend to pay their own players more than anyone else would. As for why, I think Sexton would be excellent coming off the bench for a good team. If we can get him on a long term deal through his prime for 10% of the cap, I would...
