I didn't say it was a good choice.
Dennis Schroeder "will seek other opportunities to be a starter"...
- Thread starter stitches
- Start date
I didn't say it was a good choice.
It was a terrible move. He would have looked pretty good as a 6th man and could have, at the very least, gotten more than Jeremy Lamb for him if they didnt trade him out of $$$ desperation.

Ya I agree. I was pissed when I heard what they got for him. Jazz could have easily done so much better. With all the assets they had plus Millsap and Jefferson. They could have somehow gave up enough to get him. By way of multiple team trades or something. Then they let Millsap and Jefferson walk anyways. Still can't believe it.
OKC didn't get crap for Harden. That was such a bad trade.

With Schroeder looking like he has taken the next step this could get interesting. Teague and Schroeder are too small to play together, especially with no shot blocking center. They got out rebounded by 19 tonight its already a problem. Teague only has 1 year left after this as well, so it's unlikely his trade value will ever be higher. Realistically they want Burks or Hood to start, Pleiss thrown in as they like bigs who can shoot. They'll also try hard for a 1st maybe DL talks them down to the GS 1st. Anyways, an interesting scenario to follow especially if Burke and Neto suck it up and begin costing us games.

Was there some rule that wouldn't allow okc to start harden?

Swapping out Hood or Burks for Teague (plus parts and picks obviously.) would make this team ultra sexy. I love Burks and Hood, but Teague is a San Antonio type point guard that doesn't suck defensively. Would allow us to bring along Exum slowly until he can dominate.
Meh. I'm not in love with Teague at all. I'm weary of him. He looked good in Atlanta, but they had ultimate spacing. Playing in Utah would be a complete change and I dont know if he is good enough to really help us out on offense that much.

Are you high? Dude has improved every year in the league (I'd guess he's still only 24 years old) and we have Hood and Hayward to space the floor. Maybe we don't have the stretch 4 (Millsap) but Jesus, are you thinking things through? This would take us to the next level.
The better he plays the more expensive he gets, and he's not even a RFA till next season.
The Jazz would have to over pay, big time.
So, is another year (at least) delay in waiting for Exum worth possibly a core piece? IMO yes. I think Burks or Hood would get it done, include Burke and/or a pick and make it happen. Let Exum prove his worth and, if he's as good as his first season, he's an amazing backup for the next 2 years, at least.
Time to be bold.
