Jazz trade Olynyk and Ochai to Toronto for Kira Lewis, Otto Porter, and a 2024 1st round pick

[Saint Cy of JFC]

Simone package > KO package imo.

Arent we kinda too far above the waterline to get to the relevant depths?

Don’t start with me… there are levels to tanking.

How is Kira Lewis? Playable?

Awful. Will be a 2-way guy after this year if he's lucky.

IMO, this suggests the FO is targeting someone mid-late 1st and want to be able to trade up into that spot, or they're expecting a very significant trade this offseason and are storing draft capital to facilitate that.

Glad Kelly is going to Canada.

Unless we have a plan to trade for someone bigger I’m not sure I like punting on the season again.

I think it's just that some teams are willing to deal late first in this draft and DA/JZ are just taking what they can get.

I forget Otto Porter is still on a NBA roster. Curious to see if this is one of those trades that get lumped into another trade with more teams and moving pieces involved.

Werent you someone who often was loud about KO being not good?

How many FRP do we really need?

We now have PT for BOTH Hedricks and Sensabaugh.

We just traded Simone, KO and Ochai and have gotten zero rotation players back.
