2020 NBA trade deadline discussion

I see a lot of people do this. Always shake my head. Like, sometimes it's just too obvious. I'm the exact opposite. Consistent to a fault.

I'm a CPA and made a lot of good connections in business and have some wealthy friends... every time they have a venture/deal/idea I get a call... I then find all the reasons the "sure" thing will certainly fail... if they get out of the conversation and feel okay about things they can go forward in confidence. I've helped be captain obvious to some people and they think I'm a genius.

I've developed some great catch phrases like "Do you know what 100% of nothing is?" and "this sounds like a long walk for a warm beer" and my Father in Laws personal favorite "its either a hell yes or its a no".

Consistency is good... not always fun and there are times I want to branch out a little.

Could you finish with Mitchell-Bogey-Ingles-RoCo-Gobert?

I'm probably in the minority, but I prefer Royce to RoCo. I think he's really over-rated. He isn't a lock down defender... he's disruptive and causes deflections... I prefer lockdown guys.

Yeah, but if it gets Conley off the team then we’re better.

I’m officially out on Conley. He ruins what makes the Jazz both great and special.

I would flip RoCo to a third team and get something else... I think his trade value is higher than his on court value.

Conley was good last game... I just don't think he hits that level that people think will give us another gear. I've kind of given up on this year's team being a contender so I can enjoy the season a bit more with reduced expectations I guess.
 
Conley for Covington and Dieng works salary wise. This is like best case scenario.

We’d also get a backup Center in the process. I’d throw a first-round pick in, however long down the line to make it work.

I think it works best straight across. If there’s an argument for a pick heading anywhere then it’s to Utah.

Conley is a fine player that doesn’t fit here at all.

That is brilliant! Seriously, thanks for sharing that. I hope you don't mind me stealing it.

It depends on what we’d get back for RoCo but I can back your point in theory.

and Conley has to be playing out of his mind in order to offset trampling on Joe and Rudy, the damage he does to our defense and rebounding, and putting Royce in a role where his strengths are wasted. You know this, I just wanted to answer the sentiment of “Conley was good last game...” I don’t give a **** about his game.

I'm 100% sure I stole them from someone... so yes please keep stealing. They are great one liners that convey a ton of meaning... I get small laughs on "long walk for a warm beer" all the time.

I do wonder if we could get some pop out of having a great pick and roll big and moving Joe to the bench a bit... Maybe Mike can figure it out a bit better.

RoCo does some things I like I just think people have forgotten he wasn't good in the playoffs a couple years ago and I value guys like Danny Green more. People talking about getting two first for him... I wonder if those firsts could be routed for something better.

I don't think swapping Mike for Dieng/RoCo changes our playoff fate. Might help our long-term planning.
