Blow the !@$%!%#$ Team Up

[LoPo]

This is more realistic and has an actual long term future:

Rudy, Conley and Rudy Gay
for
Collins, Capella and Huerter

Atlanta wants to save on long term money. Although they spend more this coming year, they start saving over the long term as Trae and Hunter have new deals. Rudy and Trae make a fantastic tandem while Conley is great leadership off the bench for them.

Utah loses the best player in the trade but reloads with more youth and quality roster depth. We save enough money next year on this deal that it's conceivable that we avoid the luxury.

I think the Jazz FO has a huge challenge. Even our tradeable players aren't going to be easy to move. If we do blow the team up, it could be a long time before we are in contention. Just ask the Sacramento Kings. I would be surprised if we make huge changes. I don't know if Ryan Smith bought the team so he could suffer through a long rebuild.

All depends on what you can get for Mitchell.

Can you get two starters, a lottery pick, and a good future first for him? Then maybe you rebuild around Gobert for a year or two and try it out.

If you can't, just blow it all up.

… 3rd option, just blow it up and bottom out for two+ years.

Just a question who do you think Smith, Ainge and Wade rather build around Mitchell or Gobert?

Kings are an extreme outlier. And they could have drafted Luka or JJJ instead of Bagley and history changes for them. We could be the next Memphis and have a quick turnaround. More likely you end up like OKC or maybe Minny and it takes longer.

I do agree that Ryan is the bigger roadblock here... he could be very anti-rebuild.

Oh no. You don't like a trade. Maybe we should turn Gobert into KD.

Hell, I think I'm being pretty optimistic with that deal.

Atlanta is out of the playoffs after a very disappointing year. I expect them to be very aggressive this offseason.

That trade would be incredible for us. We get 3 legit starters back that have decent contracts and would make us a more well rounded team.

Great reply. That trade would be a homerun for us. It gives us a solid center in the mold of Rudy. A really good young pf that can also play as a stretch 5. Lastly we get a really talented young wing that I think will round into a solid 15pt a game scorer.

The goal shouldn't be to become middle pack or slightly better. The goal should be to tank.

Otherwise known as the mediocre treadmill.
