If the Jazz make a draft day trade......Predict the trade.

Only see the Jazz trading out if WCS falls to them-- my guess is a trade with Boston.
 
Jazz stay at 12 and draft whoever is highest rated (and still there) between Turner, Johnson, Kaminsky, Oubre or Booker. Then they want quality over quantity. . .

Trade 42, 54 and cash to move up into the mid-twenties targeting any of a falling Oubre, Looney, Hunter, Dekker, RHJ, Grant, Wright or Anderson.

I'm still kind of hoping Jazz trade there pick, g.s. , okc 1st, Trey Burk for Jrue Holiday, Ryan Anderson.
 
Okay... I will try to play along.

Jazz sends local hero back home to the Pistons.

Jazz trades #12 + Burke + our 2nd to DET for #8 (after DET selects Winslow).

This is pretty much the best case real scenario. I'd even convert that Second rounder into the OKC pick if they wanted.
 
They do not want three rookies.

They will try to combine to move up, or stash the second rounders. I say if they think they have a chance for Tomic or Pleiss, they move up for Johnson. If not, they move just ahead of Indy for Turner. Unless someone starts falling.

They can include Burke, but they do not want too. Burke has the hard work, leadership, and he listens to coaches. He has those type of skills to be an All Star. Wait until he gets closer to his pontential before trading him.
You think Trey Burke has the skills to be an All Star? Really? I think he can improve a bit. But I don't see near the talent to ever be even considered for an all star team.
 
My two predictions...

Utah Out: #12, Trevor Booker, and 2016 1st with top 3 protections
Utah In: #6, Carl Landry (we stretch his contract and let him go)

Sac In: Taj Gibson and #12
Sac Out: Landry, #6

Chi In: Booker and Utah 2016 pick
Chi Out: Taj Gibson

Chicago cuts some salary and alleviates log jam. Sac gets a more proven player and moves back to select Cameron Payne. We get Hezonja or Porz... I wouldn't do this trade if both are off the board... Mudiay doesn't fit.

Second trade:

Assuming Turner or WCS falls (I don't think hes a great long-term fit with us because I don't think he can play the 4)

Utah out: #12
Utah in: #16 and the Dallas pick that Boston owns. 2016 top 7 protected for a few years then unprotected.

Boston out: #16 and the Dallas pick
Boston in: #12
 
I actually think there is 50% chance we stay at 12... I think we are either moving up or back. If I had to guess it would be back.
 
I don't think they move back. I don't see them getting the future assets worth making a drop back worthwhile, and there's better ways for Utah to get a late 1st/early 2nd round pick from this draft.

I very much see them moving up into the 20's from their 2nd round picks. That's been money for them these past two years. Hopefully the draft falls in a way that they can make it 3 for 3.
