Jazz Pushing For Jaylen Brown

Depends on the price obviously, but Sexton/Collins/Suns '31/a few picks sounds like something you just should do.
 
If I had to guess, the Jazz are trying to get Brown for that Suns pick with Collins/Sexton and adding 2-3 other future first and two of the rookie contract pieces we have.
That’s feels like too much. Taking the contract off their hands feels like the big piece we’re giving them.
 
It would only set us back a decade, no big deal.
I don't know if its quite that bad in one deal... but I will say it doesn't give me hope for the long term future of the franchise under Smith. Oscillating back and forth emotionally is just a recipe for mediocrity. Would be relying on dumbass luck. Which does happen... see Mavericks, Dallas.

No sir.. it will be pricy. 5th pick plus.

We’re going to be on the wrong end of the SGA-PG trade. But we’re not going to end up with two top 5/10 players, we’ll have two top 40/30 players.

Let’s be honest, it’s not just going to be the 5th pick and some bad firsts. If it happens, Stevens will take us to the woodshed. From the outside, this looks like some Kangz behavior and we’re the Kangz.
 
Unfortunate reality: whatever we would hypothetically trade for Brown has a low likelihood of ever being as good as Brown. We’d be keeping that package under the hopes of the low-probability scenario.

But that’s not an endorsement of the deal. The only way out is through.
 
Jaylen Brown’s lack of handle makes him an off-ball 2nd option. Lauri becomes a 3rd option, which is fine. Keyonte and Flip/Taylor are complementary players as 4th and 5th starters.

But who is the on-ball primary supposed to be?
 
Youre at the bottom of the pool as a strategy though.

I want to get to shore (win a chip) not just tread water (make the play in for 3 years).
The strategy that has us squinting hard at Fears like he is some sort of answer? That "strategy" kinda sucks. I'm ready to move on, depending upon price.

Alright. I'm with ya there. This deal won't be the one that sinks us for 10 years but its the domino... its the indicator that we aren't smart or disciplined enough. Hopefully we can at least be a Rich Man's Kangz?

The 5th pick will 100% be in the deal if it happens.

I know old man Ainge thinks he's doing some 5th pick for Ray Allen deal like he did back in the day. 10000% guarantee this will be brought up by every Jazz writer if it happens.
