2019 Trade Deadline Discussion

Memphis isn't desperate, but are considering options. We'll see what happens, but I'm thinking Lowry isn't enticing Memphis.
Yeah, I'm thinking they just table it and try to trade him in the off season.

Remember, they don't have absolute incentive to lose. Their pick is top 8 protected this year, and if it doesnt convey its top 6 protected next year, then unprotected the following year.

Its probably in their best interest to get it to convey this year since its a weak class. That is unless they think its worth a 10% chance at Zion. That's probably the best odds they can reach this year if they tank.

Agreed. I'm kind of intrigued to see Conley in a Jazz uni, but I think Utah and Memphis are at the "fair offer as it stands, but let's think about it" stage. Memphis has some luxury, so more power to 'em. And if the Jazz don't get Conley or back out, it's no loss to them.
 
Here I come again to poop on a possible trade target. Danilo Gallinari aka Glass.
Games played each season:
28 - 81 - 14 - 48 - 43 - 71 - 59 - 53 - 63 - 21 - 44
Let me puke.
Currently Out
Gallinari (back) is listed as out for Tuesday's game against the Hornets, Jovan Buha of The Athletic reports. (about 1 day ago)
 
Forget Gallo, I’d give up our first for Williams. Maybe Williams and Beverley. Then trade for Niko. I think we’re going to be left out in the cold, though. We don’t have much of value.
 
I don't see Utah making a salary dump move as they aren't in that mindset UNLESS the value for them is so stupidly astonishing they can't pass it up. Utah has busted its butt to keep flexibility as its Prime Directive, so no reason to tie it up long term beyond Mitchell's rookie deal. Assuming trajectory holds, Utah HAS to do something in a year or two, but SHOULD so something sooner rather than later as in the offseason. This deadline might be a bust dealwise, but Utah doesn't have to make a trade.
They don't have to make a trade, but we should. If we are able to pick up an asset for a player who expires in 2020, we can use that asset to make a summer trade.

With Tobias seemingly off the market, summer max cap room is now unnecessary. We could easily pick up a $10 million deal and still have enough room to make deals with our $20+ in space.

We need to pick up an asset before the deadline. Letting Rubio, Favors, Thabo and Udoh just expire is a waste.

Eh. There’s only one ball ... chemistry will be interesting

Hopefully Harris won’t like seeing his production going way down, between Simmons Embiid and Butler, Harris will be relegated to spot up duty, and Redick is one of the best spot up guys in the nba.

I’m re-opening my summer dream for Harris, Tobias Harris= future jazz man.

Agreed to a point. As it stands, Utah can make the room with a snap of their finger at any time, so urgency was never an issue. Utah doesn't need to let Favors expire and I doubt Utah let's Rubio walk away unless there's a better option. Utah needs to make improvements to the roster and assets are a good thing, but they have to be careful about it.
