2019 Trade Deadline Discussion

Can't believe the Sixers somehow found a way to get some return for Fultz.

Wes Matthews getting bought out.

You guys ready for the summer of Love?

Jazz FO clock is slowly but firmly ticking down. If they are not able to get into some meaningful thing between now and the start of next FA market...

Then what?

Pretty sure Dennis Lindsey will be the GM until he hires his own replacement. Regardless of what happens.

I think it's sad how many armchair GM's there are on this board who know so much more than DL. Personally, I'm glad we still have Exum. Top five in the league in downhill speed, top five in defensive capability, and was really starting to reward Jazz brass faith when the latest injury happened. He's very young and improving. They knew when they drafted him, it would be a process. Injury/confidence issues etc, have kinda derailed his progress, but he's worth the 11m.

Do we have a slot for buyouts?

 

[cowhide]

Oh, damn:

Man that is a lot for a guy who cannot lift his arm properly.

 

[kabenac]

Teodosic looks like he would be in one of those bum fight videos.

 

[framer]

I mean, at least we ain't making a trade to free up a roster spot for Melo. Lakers are going to be some "must watch" basketball for all of the wrong reasons.

No

Cue up "Sometimes, the best trade is no trade." 3, 2, 1....

Wash, rinse, repeat.

It may be legitimate. Making bad trades can absolutely kill a team, particularly a small market team that may have fewer avenues available to it to recover.

On the other hand, being overly risk averse, and making no trades, can make it hard for a team to upgrade, particularly a small market team that is not a free agent destination and is fated to remain in mid-late draft.

The upside is that I don't need to feel bad about trading away great dudes like Ricky and Derrick. So there's that.

I think it is good for Fultz to be in Orlando where he will be out of the public eye.

I would have given up Allen a first and second for Fultz. I think Snyder could have fixed him.
