What's new

A trade is brewing...

None of our core players have been busts so far too, which when looking at other teams you can't say the same. It looks like we are above average at drafting.

I'd say. The entire team next year will be our home brewed draft picks. Counting Favors since DWill netted him.

Yes, it is a very good point. Unfortunately our high picks have occurred in very weak drafts.
 
What if Cleveland comes along offers us Irving for our first and Burke?
If we have a top-4, I'd say no. Top 4 is a likely franchise player. It would have to be a clear win for Utah. Irving is essentially a #1 for a #4 and #9. Tempting, but Burke is a starter, plus we're drafting a franchise player. Now if that pick was a #6 + Burke, I'd say yes.
 
The great thing about Lindsey throwing it out there is he MAYBE sets up a bidding war. Two teams are now on record as willing to deal their picks: Lakers and Jazz. And as it sits now, Utah has the best pick. So see if any great offers come in, and then pit teams against each other if multiple offers are on the table.

This is the entire reason things like this get said. Wtf wouldn't you want to hear all offers... of course you would.

I agree
 
The Jazz could poke around Love's status to see if he would sign an extension here. They can beat any offer LA, NY, or Golden State has.
