Jazz and Knicks discussing Donovan Mitchell trade per Shams Charania and Tony Jones

I told y’all not to worry haha. The past couple days should be a surprise to no one.

Interesting that the only player mentioned by name is Grimes. He had an impressive rookie year despite not getting much time.

Quite a loud article considering the deal hasn't actually happened yet. They're making it sound imminent.

Shams doesn’t want to feel too behind Woj. Woj will probably be first because he has the same agency as Don and close ties to the UTA FO. But Shams/the Athletic are doing their best to be first by naming the team first. The race to get the news out makes this more real than ever.
 
One of the strange things about this is that they had an article along with the tweet. (To be honest, I haven't read the article, so I don't know the level of detail in it, so my questions may be moot.) If this was really time-sensitive news, you'd think that they'd have just fired off the tweet before Tony wrote the article. Wonder why they felt confident in writing the article before Woj caught wind of it and sent out a tweet.

Locke tomorrow…


“This isn’t news… Jazz are very much still building around Don… maybe they move him next year but not now… of course teams are talking”
 
Just as I was warming up to the idea of Simmons melting down in front of the Salt Lake media for three seasons.

There truly is no better way to tank than to tank ugly.
 
The thing in the article that is most interesting is that everyone else is available for trade.

This is going to be a “to the studs” sort of thing, ain’t it?

Is this wise? With the new lottery rules, is all out tanking the best play, or is a softer tank better?

Which way do we give ourselves better odds to acquire Wenby? By being semi-competitive with some talented young guys, couldn’t we attach one or two to our trove of picks and trade up for Wemby? That would make next season more fun too if we are at least play-in competitive with a talented young team.

I dunno. We should probably just embrace the full tank and not half *** it, right? I hope we at least have some fun young players to watch. That‘s why I hope Toppin and Barrett are in the deal.
 
Also once we trade Don I expect a **** ton of trades on our end. Wouldn’t be shocked if we added bogey to this deal to get more picks. Ainge gonna go for the throat.
