They want to blow it up and start fresh around Triple J.

LoL. Because he is getting old and will be past his prime soon. Time to trade in the old models for new ones.

A Michael Jordan who got drafted 3rd in his own draft and never had a winning season without Pippen.

LeBron is the biggest prospect probably in the history of the NBA. People were talking about him when he was 14 like he was the next great one. Lew Alcindor (Kareem) was pretty big too, but in a different era of sharing information.

Pippen is full of ****

Well yeah, that's usually what most aging teams with star players do.

I still hope the Conley deal falls through. Jazz get a great pick and everyone wants to win it all his sophomore year...Conley only makes sense if your pushing to win now. Conley does not love the needle enough for the jazz to win a ship. Period. So while we are locked in to a behemoth contract for the remainder of Donovan’s rookie contracts and have no ability to make smart and calculated moves we will be hands tied and reminded how we jumped into bed with the first girl to look our way. I will stand firmly in my belief that the jazz should be cautious on this one.

How are we not trying to win now? Conley absolutely moves the needle to where opposing defenses actually have to defend the PG position and respect his shot making ability. Other than Conley's high salary your entire take is hot garbage.

Looks like Marc Gasol to the Hornets is being finalized soon

So why would a non aging team like the jazz with star players pick up the aging ones smart guy?

No Gasol but MEM leading MIN 25-9 in Q1.
They have now 6th worst record in the league and every L counts.
There is a chance they can still win some games and lose their top-8 protected draft pick to BOS.

So you think that the current team with a Conley trade can beat the rest of the west?

His high salary/old age/length of contract/possible cost of additional assets. C’mon man take off the blinders!

Why does Memphis want to trade Conley?

Because they can't be competitive as presently constructed and both Conley and Gasol no longer fit their window. Seems obvious.

Why get Mike Conley, when you could get another Grayson Allen in a weak *** draft class.

Trading Exum and a 1st-round pick to move up 8 - 10 spots in the draft could net a good player though. We did it before to draft Donovan.
