It's happening bros...

Holy cow, if we got Khris and their 1st, I'd pass out from excitement.

If we got Khris and gave up one of our 6 second rounders I would pass out from excitement.

They do need bigs. They have minutes for him for sure.

And his three is developing which could fit the Suns nicely.

 

[Stifle Tower]

I'm fine with that. Shed Burke too.

That said, our offense could be horrific without Kanter next year and abysmal without he and Burke in a major hypothetical world.

For serious? Give Trey's 15 shots to ANYONE else: Ingles, Millsap (well, maybe not Dante) and they make a better percentage. I agree there might be some growing pains with inserting Gobert into the lineup instead of Kanter. But also remember Burks will be the starting SG instead of Ingles or Millsap. So subtract a scorer in Kanter, but add one in Burks. I don't see a huge difference in offense. But I see a MUCH improved defense.

Maxing Enes Kanter is what idiot GMs do to get fired. Anyone actively looking to get fired?

 

[JazzForLifee]

make something happen. plz

Cy is making me pray for Enes to get traded.


I'm putting in buku prayers, y'all.

 

[fishonjazz]

but is he down to get the friction on?

Would have liked twice if I could

 

[fishonjazz]

I said big, not long..

Don't be a wet blanket Mr Jones

After reading Zach Lowe's primer for the trade deadline, and considering further the situation with Enes, I'm now 100% on the side of trading him. If we can get a first-round pick, then awesome.

I say this because the value of rookie deals will be even more insane with the cap rising
+
I'd like us to use our cap space on a player who fits with what we're trying to do, before the cap goes bananas.

Other scenarios I'd be very interested in:
Khris Middleton

I think the Kanter situation will be similar to the trade deadline when we thought Millsap and/or Jefferson would be traded but nothing ended up happening.

Jazz would still have Booker, one of Burks/Middleton (one starts, while the other is 6th man), Jingles, 2015 draft pick(s), the rights to Neto/Tomic and some money to add a free agent or two. I'm pretty sure they can figure out how to make it work.

David Locke, trying to up Kanter's value:

Not saying he's wrong, per se, but this is the same guy that was ruthless on Kanter for two years and who definitely operates with the front office's interests - rather than his reader's need to be informed - as his first priority.
