They don’t have that many (tradable draft) assets at this point. I wouldn’t trade Lauri for rubbish but wouldn’t be Gollum about it. It’s quite unlikely he’ll be here for a title run one way or another. Lauri is a really good player having a great year so far. Given where we are and need to be...

That would be so ****ing funny NGL.

If he finishes the year shooting 50% from 3 he will be getting a max contract (offer sheet) no brainer.

Cody saved our hide tonight. They need to put him out there as much as possible.

Thank ****ing god.

“That crap” of legitimate consideration of the longterm health of a player? Win-win.

Which is why they will be quite cozy to wait and see what happens. If they don’t get a great pick, fine. It is about the potential for something higher. Right now I’d wager it’s still comfortably in the top-20.

The Queen trade might go down in history as one of the biggest blunders ever.

If Lauri is an All-Star the tank is already completely cooked.

They are not trading us the pick back for anything less than way too much. On the other side, the Jazz can choose to be terrible and end up with a better pick anyway. Neither side has a compelling reason to deal. The swap component is noteworthy, but that’s precisely why the Thunder would be...

That organization huffs paint. They have needed shooters since forever and appear to have two franchise dudes that aren’t awesome shooters and would benefit from space and what do the Magic do? Draft a shooting-cursed Anthony Black and a complete bum, each over Grady Dick.

Please clarify.

(This is not very strong evidence that the Jazz should just dump the tank cuz they’re too good and it’ll be worth it.)

It’s also three games: one against a team that fell asleep and two against play-in-at-best teams that the Jazz barely beat.

One of the oldest rosters in the NBA? Lol The broader point is fine-ish… except the bright spots you’re talking about are players we had on the roster that year.

Same could be said for three years ago which people came to understand was bad after they sobered up.

Sorry? The Jazz have to have a bottom-4 record to assure keeping their pick. They don’t have a lot of time to mess around before it becomes difficult keep the win total sufficiently down.

God ****ing damn it

who the **** do you think you’re talking to? Go take a nap.

I guess what I’m saying is that this, at best, seems like selective enforcement/targeting. I don’t doubt there is underhanded **** going on at all.
