Locke: We could get Kawhi Leonard

Y'all are so weird to overreacting to an idea, not an order.

The Jazz should be looking at win now moves if they are priced well enough and they can string multiple moves together. That's how Ainge built the KG team.
 
So we can go from 10th in the West to... 9th?
IDK, you get Kawhi then you snipe another player then you sign DDR. Or whatever. There probably isn't a good path, but everything is worth exploring and it's the freaking off-season. You need to talk about something or do y'all just want to rehash our opinions on the rookies we haven't seen play yet?
 
Besides he doesn't want to play with a bunch of teenagers. I would rather trade Lauri than sign Kawhi. Just do a total tank and get a high picks in a loaded draft.

I gave my opinion. Kawhi is 33 years old, plays an average of 60 games a year (that might be being nice), is injury prone, and moves us to contention to hosting a play in game. Yay.
 
Get Kawhi, plus another high level player, keep Lauri, keep a lot the picks. I would do that. Rev up the engine. It would screw up the 2025 draft but because it is so freaking deep and the management team works so hard to find players, I think they can find an all-star even if they get a less than ideal draft selection.

That being said. I would only do it if I could get the Bulls 2025 pick unprotected (or something like this) by taking on Zach. The Bulls would the be worst team in the league. We could still get a chance at the top 5 and focus on winning.

I’d rather trade for Jimmy Butler tbh. Think he’d be a positive culture setter for the Jazz.
Not sure Kawhi is that at this point in his career.
