Play Along - if we HAD to trade

See. This guy gets it.

I played along. I said the only thing I'm trading him for is Wiggins. Even then Im not sure I'd even do that. Wiggins is not guarantee. He might just be a fun athletic player who doesn't win. And we have a few nice wing already. We would then need a power forward. Lyles isn't cutting it either.
 
Conley: yo, FO, I want out, k?

FO: well, where are you thinking you wanna go, Mike?

Conley: the Jazz sounds nice.

The only way we could offer Conley the most money-- he might want out of Memphis.

I know what you are saying. I just want you to say it.

You think we should offer Mike Conley a 5 year max money deal to get him here. And give up assets.

**** no!

He'll be 28 starting this season. 29 at the start of next.

So let's offer him 5 years max and possibly get 1 or 2 more good years out of him? He'll be 34 at the end of his contract. No thanks. He isn't that good.

If I'm a point guard with a superior skill set, I would look really hard at the Jazz if they could make it financially worth my while. That would be a pretty good situation to walk into. Can you imagine what someone like Conley would do on this team?

As we noted in that graphic that was posted here, the Jazz have the best frontcourt in the NBA. Not only that, but they are likely to stay put for quite a while. It isn't like signing on with the Blazers or Thunder where you are hoping that the "stars" stay and don't bail one year into your contract (Lillard is kind of screwed.) Your only real competition is Trey Burke and a teenager with a torn ACL. I'm high on Exum, but he was a three more year project BEFORE he tore his ACL. The Jazz have pretty good spacing and you are going to get a LOT of open looks. You will get as much playing time as you can handle and will be working with a coaching staff focused on development. Additionally, you will be credited as the guy who brought the Jazz to the playoffs and the honeymoon will be epic.
