Jazz trade Fonteccio to Pistons for 2024 2nd

[Shad]

Garbage trade and I'll be upset if this is the only trade that happens for the Jazz

Me too. I dont think they will though. Would have to be a great offer imo. Hardy might not like sexton but I think DA does.

Same I get the feeling Ainge really likes Sexton. Probably has to do with the fact he plays with a ton of energy, is all about basketball, hardest worker and plays fearless against any opponent. Ainge played the same way on those Boston and Suns teams. He was never the star but always played balls to the wall where opposing teams/fans hated him.

Wouldn’t it be something if the Jazz could unlock Kevin Knox?

Dude overseas looks a little like Tech on offense. Hell I’ll take him over Luka right now lol

These MFers really gonna make me watch college basketball again aren't they?

From what I saw Lauri was somewhat successful playing the 3 in Cleveland but he had 2 defensive bigs in Allen/Mobley to make up for any defensive deficiencies he had on the perimeter.

Kevin Knox is a head case, I doubt he ever plays here.

What a nasty, depressing trade. JFC...

I mean... the notion that we're suddenly "opening up minutes for Hendricks" is flat out BIZARRE. Smack in the middle of a playoff race!! The kid didn't even play when we were losing to all kinds of bottom dwellers and the season seemed to be going down the drain. Now is the time?? There was never any pressure to play Tech, he wasn't an investment. But the dude stayed ready, improved, and clawed his way to the starting lineup.

As I said earlier, Fontecchio became an actual asset. He's athletic, has a fantastic motor, can shoot and seems ready to accept any kind of role. I mean, you're not gonna resign a guy like that to fill out the roster after bringing in John Collins and his laughable monster contract??

Tech is a proven NBA player. The Italian kid is not, Knox is not, and the pick I'm not even gonna say anything about.

We just got worse. A lot worse. Please don't tell me Ainge has a "plan".

It just hit me so hard.

I think the last thing we want to do is move Lauri back to his Cleveland role.

Playing Lauri at the 3 doesn't bother me, playing Collins at the perimeter might be worse than at the rim (on defense)
