Ideally if Houston Makes this trade they also make a trade with Phoenix to give back their picks and some and give them green and eason for Devin booker.
What about
Jazz Trade
#21 (maybe)
Markkanen
Either Svi or Juzang
Springer
(Last are all non-guarenteed)
Houston traded
#10
Jabari Smith
Dillon Brooks (salary need)
Reed Sheppard
This is if Houston can't make deals for anyone else. Smith might flourish in a new system and is a decent...
I have been thinking about players that are under the age of 25 that are good defenders that they jazz might get in a trade.
I did run a chatgpt and got some interesting ideas. (Not all of the following are from chatgpt)
I like a trade with the rockets
Reed Sheppard is serviceable...
I am liking Demin more and more. He has a pretty high ceiling. Great measurables, he seems to be a hard worker. I do NOT think he is a PG but I think he can help initiate the offense out of the wing. I think he could be great at PnR. He is a little bit of a unicorn in his ability to do some stuff.
I have been watching some Will Riley tape and I was surprised to find he had a 32" vert not great but ok. He hardly gets off the ground in game. His vert is not game usable.
Ok a little late to the party so dont want to sift through 15 pages of stuff so here are some of my trade ideas
First is 2 options for Collins sexton both to Orlando (Feel they are the best fit)
1st Sexton for Anthony and Howard
Not a huge fan of a 2 for 1 trade, but the Jazz do not have...
It is interesting how many of these players have good year ones then seem to disappear. They move back into role player positions. Very few ever become stars.
I am of the opinion that we get the measurements without shoes to make sure players arent inflating their height with inserts.
However, the game is played in shoes and it is not unheard of to add 3/4" when playing. Some shoes can add even more. That is why I don't quibble with Tre being listed...
If anything he is 6'5". He measured 6'4 3/4" that is easily justifable 6'5". Add in the shoes and he can be listed at 6'6" with a round up of half an inch or less.
A lot of how I like to rate my picks is mental makeup. I do not like the mental make up of Ace. I think he is drinking his own bath water too much. Some has to do with prejudice from skinny wings (still trying to believe in williams)
It will be hard to find a franchise player at 5.
Ok my top 15 picks are as follows (minus Flagg and Harper of course)
Tre Johnson
VJ Edgecombe
Egor Demin
Kon Knueppel
CMB
Ace Bailey
Carter Bryant
Kasparas Jakucionis
Rasheer Fleming
Noa Essengue
Jeremiah Fears
Noah Penda
Nolan Traore
Kaman Malauch
Joan Beringer
HONORABLE MENTIONS...
Because we are giving #5 it is a fair deal. To move back 3 spots and still get Markkanen is a hell of a deal for SAS. They would have
Fox
Castle
Vessel
Markkanen
Wemby
That is a great starting 5. They would still have sochan, Paul and mamu off the bench. Add the #5 PICK let's say tre or Ace...
Ok was thinking of this trade today
Jazz Trade
Lauri Markkanen
The #5 Pick
The #21 pick
To San Antonio for
#2 pick
# 14 Pick
(The rest are fillers)
HArrison Barnes
Keldon Johnson
Malaki Branham
