2020 NBA trade deadline discussion

I choose Juwan Morgan over all three. Makers rebounding numbers are really bad for a “defensive specialist”. Other than occasionally hitting a few threes he doesn’t excite me...

I’m cool with doing something but that isn’t the something I’d do... honestly Ed is a better option imo.
If we had Maker, I’d like to see if Boler calls him Snell again. Of course, I’d also like to hear Boler refer to Thurl as Matt again.
 
Houston is looking to trade Clint Capela - makes me think they are betting on 5 out the rest of the way, going small with great spacing. Should be interesting to see how that works out for them come playoff time.

I'm not sure how it will work against the other western conference playoff teams but it sure as hell seems to work against us. I'd be terrified to face them in the playoffs again.
 
Tony Jones just posted a good article in The Athletic about the deadline. There isn’t anything new that hasn’t already been discussed on jazzfanz. But a good article Nonetheless.
 
I've surrendered to the idea that Niang is staying in the rotation.

Y'all should too.

Several of us have pointed out the downsides of Niang being in the rotation. But it doesn't matter what we think. Quin wants shooting on the floor in that spot. And we aren't going to find a better shooter than Niang. So... it is what it is.
 
Tony Bradley and Ed Davis for Jakob Poeltl and DMC. San Antonio finally gets TB.
I’m guessing Poeltl gets a first somewhere if moved. We will throw in atomic too...

I’d be really skeptical about him landing a first. I mean, he’s playing 17.6 minutes in his fourth year. People weren’t giving up firsts for guys like Niko. Hell, Clarkson fetched a corpse. He’s kinda like Joel Przybilla.
