I'm excited for when you get smarter as you get older, LOL.

I'm guessing he's going to be a secondary as well, but I don't think it's 100% set in stone when he's had as much success as he's had on ball and is a young as he is.

One of the worst turnover rates for a modern 1st round one and done prospect is his success as a primary. Riley > Kasparas.

I bet PHX would prefer Kessler + Collins + Sexton over Lauri.

I deleted my post. I don't think the Jazz would give up Lauri + 5 + 21 just to move up to #2. That's a heavy price when they could just draft Tre or Ace.

I could see a scenario where Phoenix gets the #14 pick and San Antonio gets the #21 pick. That aligns with the types of players these teams have been working out this week.

The Jazz with Lauri/Kessler/Collins + #5 is well positioned to help the Spurs and Suns complete a trade. The Jazz would take back younger players from the Spurs. Jazz would probably move a future 1st sooner than they'd move #5 though.

Luka is tall Harden. I only caught glimpses of Bird... you are old as **** so I have no comps for Pete Maravich. Durant is kinda new age Bird maybe. Mullin... Klay/Rashard Lewis? You are comparing a by gone era.

You can use white comps all you want... if you feel a need to use it as a qualifier then you just aren't looking deep enough.

There aren’t many top white stars today just easier to come up with my childhood hero’s.

Barlowe has heard whispers that Harper doesnt want to be in San Antonio.

Looks like I will have to look into Harper. Thought he was a lock at 2 so I just ignored him but if this is true, the Jazz have a chance at him. On first glance, the shooting numbers don't look great but the at rim numbers are crazy good.

Cmon bird and Pistol are some of the most iconic players ever surely you have an idea? Also come up with another comp for each.

Watching highlights versus games is different. The game is also so incredibly different that Bird would be different than they were.

Kon is more similar to Klay or Desmond Bane than he is to Corey Kispert imo. Tre Johnson and Kon have both been compared to Sensabaugh... so how about that. There is no reason to use race as a qualifier... sorry.
 
Trying this again...

Spurs give: #2, K. Johnson, J. Sochan, H. Barnes
Spurs receive: Kevin Durant, #21

Suns give: Kevin Durant, maybe loose change
Suns receive: #5, Lauri Markkanen, future protected FRP

Jazz give: #5, #21, Lauri Markkanen, future protected FRP
Jazz receive: #2, #14, K. Johnson, J. Sochan, H. Barnes

Jazz would need to really, really want Harper and someone at #14 to do this deal.
