I want Mitchell gone. I want the best opportunity for multiple picks in the 2023 draft lottery. Suck. Suck hard.
No thieves! We will take hero in picks instead thank you for listen tk thoughts.Fred Katz on ESPN700...
Thinks deal happens before training camp... if a deal happens he thinks its Fournier, Grimes, 3 unprotected picks from Knicks, 2 others from their protected pile. Said he wouldn't be surprised if Quickly ends up in the deal.
Why would you announce a trade before it can officially go through. Bad business IMOAm I wrong in saying that while the Jazz can’t officially trade any package of players acquired in the Rudy deal before September 6th, they could still announce that they’ve agreed in principle to trade Donovan to NY in a deal that won’t become official until September 6th?
Unless we make a trade for a big I think we will be a play in team… but yeah the point still stands… going from 10-16ish to top 5 is a big benefit. They could surprise I suppose but it feels like we are a playin team if we don’t trade Don to me.The Jazz keeping Mitchell de-values their own first round pick in supposedly a fantastic draft year. I think Danny wants that to be a lottery pick.
True. But wasn't the Love-Wiggins trade well known well before it could go through? Did the teams stay quiet on this before Wiggins was eligible to be traded, or did they basically acknowledge it was a done deal?Why would you announce a trade before it can officially go through. Bad business IMO
This is a real issue, to be sure, but I get the sense that we overvalue the return that this will bring.The other big thing is losing out on cashing in on the vets. Tony has said we won’t sell off the other stuff if we keeping Don.
I think the key deal is the Westbrook deal. Bogey and Vando should both fetch an okay first by themselves but Bev, JC, Beasley are more second rounder types. But if we aggregate JC, Bogey, Bev and take back Westbrook I think you can get two really good firsts in 27/29… maybe one has slight protections… but lakers could really be *** for a while when Bron is done.This is a real issue, to be sure, but I get the sense that we overvalue the return that this will bring.
We have our visions of first-rounders coming back for Bogey, Beverley, and certainly Vanderbilt if we let him go, and maybe even for Clarkson, Beasley, and even Conley if we get lucky.
From what I've seen out there, other teams (fans) see fire-sale, and are hoping to do things like send back bad salary and a late 2nd for even one of our better assets.
It will be interesting to see what kind of return Ainge can get in a short amount of time, if it comes to that. (And it may not even have helped much if Donovan had been dealt a month ago. Other teams might still be in predatory mode for our assets, given the state of the market.) I think it's likely we'll be holding onto more than we might expect, for a while at least.
I do think we keep a few of Mike, Vando, Beasley, JC… they may get moved in season if playing well.This is a real issue, to be sure, but I get the sense that we overvalue the return that this will bring.

I mean, Royce got a FRP. Some of the vets would probably have better value after training camp, the preseason, and the first couple weeks of the season shake out. If a team catches fire, they would be VERY interested in adding good vets and less concerned about the value of a pick.I think the key deal is the Westbrook deal.

I know I have now said this a thousand times but my first priority if I’m the Jazz is the rights to the top of the Knicks’ draft for seven years and at least three unprotected picks. The protected picks and young players are gravy in my mind and I hope the org sees it the same way. I think they’re in the lottery the next two years and it might get better for them eventually but it might also get significantly worse.Fred Katz on ESPN700...
