Jazz "considering" Conley for Blake.

[The Jazz Wonderbra]

Weird trade rumor. If there's 3rd team, I guess Blake could be part of a trade with Gobert and say... Tobias?

 

[Joncolton]

DROse would help our backcourt height issue.

Also, we don't have to worry about him dropping 50 points on us again. He can do it for us, to someone else.

 

[Avery]

Not happening. His contract is an albatross this year and next. And Blake isn’t what he was.

Just get Conley’s cap hold off the books and we can figure out how to use it.

 

[NAOS]

DL’s first call every morning is to Conley’s maid service. He likes to know how Mike slept, if he’s feeling happy, and if there’s anything he can do to make him feel more welcome to retire a jazzman.

We aren’t trading him.

 

[SteakNEggs]

One washed up player for another while eating an even more massive contract for another year? I say hell no but DL is probably salivating at the thought. If Blake was still a super star, yeah but he's not.

 

[kabenac]

lol this is silly. We have Favs now, who actually defends and isn't yet slowing down. It would make more sense to move Conley near the deadline as his contract will be attractive to other teams. We help a team out who wants some future signing flexibility and they give us pick(s) and hopefully a player(s) who can help us. The only way I don't see this scenario happening is if Conley starts playing up to the expectations of DL and JZ.

So the guy that wrote this is some college student... I can safely say this done ********

probably lopo's son

I've been saying for years that Blake Griffin is a fantastic fit on our team. If Don is our PG, which he should be, Blake is a perfect point forward to share the court. He can run the pick and roll with Gobert. He can spread the floor, facilitate, play adequate defense. For those worried about the Lakers and Bucks, Blake is perfect. He's the type guy who will get AD and Giannis in foul trouble. He's going to make them work so much harder on the defensive end.

If this is Conley vs Blake, it's a no brainer. Blake makes us closer to contention. The cost is severe due to Blake's 2021-22 contract number, but if you want to contend, you have to pay the price. If we have Favors and Blake, we have the luxury in the regular season to rest them as much as possible. We don't have to push those guys at all. Come playoff time, we are that much more dangerous and deep.

Conley for Blake and a great asset. If we are going to be a luxury team, just go all out. This team with Blake in place of Conley is a true contender.

Do you think we’re getting the clippers Blake? The only reason you do this trade is if you think Griffin puts you over the top. Hate to put LoPo in a bad mood but it doesn’t. This is a massively bad idea for the jazz

Agreed. The current Blake is nothing like the LAC Blake. This whole thing seems bogus.

 

[candrew]

Blake has a player option next year for just under a billion dollars.

WTH would The Jazz put themselves in that situation with an oft-injured ball dominant player past his prime?

 

[Thee Jazz Fan]

The only way the jazz would even consider this deal is if they gave us this next years first with no protection on it, and even then it’s extremely risky.
