Collin Sexton traded to Charlotte Hornets for Jusuf Nurkic

This is a great trade.

I would be disappointed if we get the same kind of trade for Collins. I think he should have actual value due to his shooting improvements.

Meh, can't you rationalize it the exact same way? "it had to be done.. you clear the path for Hendricks, yada-yada, you strengthen direct competitor for high picks... yada-yada... it's just a second or two we are giving up, etc...

Don't include the pick at least. Sheesh.

I feel like AA could call up quite a few teams in the league and be like "we will give you a good young player and you give us a crappy old guy" and find some takers.
No need for the pick imo

On can reasonably conclude the the Jazz FO aren’t complete idiots. They’ve been trying to move Sexton for a while. Thus, it’s reasonable to conclude that this was the market for a player like Sexton on a team like the Jazz where everybody knows they practically have to get rid of Sexton. So, sure, it really isn’t a good deal. It’s also not as bad as people are making it look, and I doubt Utah could have done better or they would have.

We are setting up proper infrastructure around our potential star we just drafted to ensure he succeeds

Setting up a foundation for Ace and WCJ? That does make sense in terms of setting them up for success. Ty Jerome would be cheaper than any Sexton extension and would be more of a connector type who can play within himself. Let us hope Ty Jerome is actually the plan.

Charlotte now have zero centers.

This is probably the one vet I would’ve kept if I had to choose so it would make sense that we’re attaching assets for a total ****ing corpse.

Sexton is good. Dumb trade if this is it

Charlotte now have zero centers.

They just drafted Kalkbrenner

After chewing on this, the only thing that actually makes sense is that the Jazz actually like Nurkic.

 

[Tremendous Upside]

Charlotte now have zero centers.

Don't worry, Kon sometimes posted up at Duke

 

[Tom Pitt]

This is a great trade.

Wtf

 

[rippimpc]

Feel like I got centel’d

 

[NUMBERICA]

Charlotte now have zero centers.

Did both teams just make simultaneous tank trades?
