2019 Trade Deadline Discussion

Anyone like Jabari Parker as a trade option besides me? He's been playing better as of late and he's still only 23 years old. I know he's injury prone but he has a lot of talent and if he can get back to where he was before injuries, he could be a great addition to the Jazz.

No. He refuses to play defense, and that's Utah's whole identity.

The rumour came from David Locke?

Is he normally reliable with these sorts of thing?

Gonna day no... on draft stuff I think you can trust him... it’s not a big rumor.

LA offered Tobias a $20 million extension last summer. Do we even know if they want to give him $30+ in the summer?

Yes, he has played well this year but it's not like he carries the name recognition of Butler, Kawhi, KD, etc. This is LA we are talking about. He is good, but he is not a star.

They literally offered him every penny they could under the rules... Boston did the same with Kyrie... this little note on the story means absolutely nothing.
 
AD may miss 2-4 weeks according to Shams... RIP Pelicans playoff hopes.
 
Just reading the internet and stuff, people are going pretty wild with the Conley hypothetical offers. Don't think Utah can afford to be in the Conely sweepstakes.
 
Well we will have lots of cap space next year. Unless we can sign a big time free agent, conley might be the best option but how do we get him?

If we could get Exum in the deal to Memphis and address our stretch four needs with Ricky I could get on board with a Conley deal.

Being above the cap may not be the worst thing in the world... could address any leftover needs with MLE.
 
I don't think a deal for Conley can stand alone. If we move for him, we have to do more because we are leveraging the next few years for him. My plan would be two simultaneous trades and one doesn't happen without the other:

#1: Rubio, Exum, Bradley and multiple 2nd rounders for Conley. Memphis sheds Conley's deal, gets a PG in Exum for the long term with JJJ, and gets young Bradley who might fit next to JJJ long term too. Ideally, there is a 3rd team that wants Rubio that sends Memphis another asset.

#2: We pursue a PF. Favors and picks for Tobias. Or something for Bjelica. Or something for Niko.

Conley only makes sense as a "take a shot at contending" type move. Well, we would need more than just Conley to make that realistic.
