2019 Trade Deadline Discussion

Anyone else getting a feeling that the trade rumors might be a bait and switch. Like other teams see what the Jazz are possibly offering and putting one of their guys on the table now instead. For some reason I still think Beal makes a ton of sense.

Washington isn't likely putting Beal on the table. They may be willing to talk about Porter more than they're letting on.

Now I'm feeling like no trade gets done. The fact that the details of the trade proposal got leaked tells me Memphis leaked it to try and pressure Utah (making it awkward with Rubio).

I don't think Utah increases their offer outside of adding a 2nd round pick.

If Detroit is in it, I could see them giving up a first and Kennard. They are the much more desperate team. They don't have the expirings Utah has, so maybe that gives Utah the edge, but I bet Detroit is willing to put more future assets on the table.

Maybe Utah pivots to focusing on Mirotic.

If you're Memphis, do you really take Reggie Jackson though? He's got another year after this at $17M.

I think the time is to do it now.

If you are confident in your talent evaluation then you act before someone does it before you.

The talent is there. The biggest question mark is the health of his knee imo. So thats why you do it now. You test him out, while he is "cheap" asset wise, and see if he is worth the gamble of ever thinking about giving him any kind of lengthy contract. Getting him now is the least risky of all the ideas.

The more time you have to evaluate his fit and health the better. Waiting for the waivers is a risk too. You might never the chance to see.

Well, if he's cheap maybe take a flier... We're playing Niang afterall.

 
Based off that Lowe article, seems clear that of Rubio, Exum and Favors, Exum is the guy we would rather keep.

I like Conley, but I just can't get over Jrue. The guy is simply our best target. The fact that we are linked to Mirotic makes me even more interested in expanding the deal to include Jrue. I think we could have Conley right now but we are waiting for Jrue to come available.

If NOLA does take the LA trade, this deal just makes too much sense:

Favors, Rubio, Grayson, 2019 1st, 2021 1st and a future 2nd
for
Jrue and Mirotic

This trade completely clears the books for NOLA allowing them to rebuild. If they trade AD, Jrue should also be dealt. They could flip Favors for another pick.
