What's new

It's happening bros...

You can bring in IT without taking Burke's minutes away, just play Exum more at the 2.

I think Thomas and Burke would play the 2 on offense with Exum being the PG and guarding the 2, but I get what you are saying. I think Trey would be moved in the offseason though if we brought in IT.
 
It's probably close to 50/50 right now. Honestly if I was DL I'd take a decent first rounder and expirings for him. He's not ready mentally to be a third big and sacrifice for the team (not blaming him just stating the facts). He is not a starter on a Western Conference playoff team and I doubt he ever will be. Not sure why we'd prolong this dance if we can get some value and move on.
 
Adrian Wojnarowski ‏@WojYahooNBA
Executives say Utah has significant threshold for Enes Kanter deal - including young player, 1st rounder, etc - but several teams pursuing.

He gone by Thursday.

Perfect. If we could get both those things, young player and 1st rounder it's a no brainer. Pull the trigger Dennis, let's do some cleansing.

"etc" makes me think this is an or situation
 
More tidbits from Andy Larsen of SCH via Twitter

Andy Larsen @andyblarsen
Holy cow. I'm at a point in my life where I'm tempted to tweet "I can confirm Wojnarowski's report." I'm that guy.

More color: Enes Kanter's trade demand didn't change what Jazz would accept in offer, but it did push them to pursue a trade somewhat more.

Andy Larsen @andyblarsen
Jazz aren't just weighing other team's incoming offers for Kanter, but are going out & making some of their own as well. Lots on the table.

Andy Larsen @andyblarsen
Jazz won't accept just any first round pick or just any young player for Enes Kanter, BTW. It has to be someone they really like.

Andy Larsen @andyblarsen
I'd put the odds of the Jazz making a trade this week at about 50/50. Lots of plausible ideas on table, but nothing super close right now.

Sounds like not much has changed, just that discussions have amped up a bit.

Best case: Middleton + this year's 1st.
 
Boston also might make sense... they care less about fit and more about getting better assets. They might do Tyler Zeller and the 2016 top ten pick they have from Cleveland for Kanter. I think Zeller is a more effective player than Kanter but kanter has more upside. Zeller would be great 3rd/4th big and he is cheap.

I just hope something decent gets done and everyone can move on....
 
I like the Terrence Ross rumor.

I looked at their roster... i don't think they can trade him... they don't have enough wing talent.

I also don't want DL on the phone with Masai... that guy does voodoo or something... You talk with him long enough he can probably convince you to trade Gobert for Landry Fields. Just hang up the phone if he calls DL!
 
This is another genius move by Dennis, I wonder how much he payed Woj to leak this info. This is going to get teams more willing to pull the trigger on Kanter by knowing that there might be other teams interested in him. We'll see where it all ends. I am hoping for a trade myself, I don't like players who mess aroundlike he's done, it's bad for the team chemistry. Kanter be gone please.

my guess it is because Bruno is their future. they have decent wing depth.
