Potential Trade Targets

Landry Fields was asked "Can you envision the team without Trae Young in the future?" and he said: "I haven't really sat down and thought about that. I focus on whats in front of us."

I dont know if he is honest, stupid or a horrible politician... but that was the wrong answer in any case.

Yeah, pretty bad answer honestly. Wouldn’t instill any confidence in me if I was a fan of that team.

I think we’d be very high on the list. I’ve seen the Spurs mentioned too. They own Atlanta’s picks in 25/27 so they could put together a nice package.

Yeah, the Hawks are dumb as hell and they traded those picks completely unprotected.

The Jazz could give them a better offer than the Spurs if they are trying to re-tool around Murray, which I could see the Hawks trying to do.

Their own picks only become extremely valuable to them if they are blowing it completely up.

Hopefully if it happens Quin becomes the GM and trades us Trae for JC to get his homie back.

Why Quin didn't wait is beyond me but after seeing what jobs became available and how coaches salaries blew up after Monty... he gotta be kicking himself.

That is a really good point.
 
What would it take to get Trae Young? (Not that I decided I would want him)

I was thinking Sexton, Hendricks and Clarkson. With Clarkson probably going to a 3rd team. 3 Frps? Maybe lightly protected.

Had a lucid dream last night. Jazz made the trade before the draft. Have Atl this year Clippers pick and our 2028 and 2030 frps. Lightly protected. Jazz got the 3rd pick in the draft. We drafted Cody Williams and Tyler Kolek with the 2nd. We signed Gary Trent jr in the offseason.



Young, Dunn, Kolek
George, Trent
Williams, prochida, sensabaugh
Markkanen, Collins
Kessler, yurtseven

I dont know

I am going to assume that Jazz did not trade for Dejounte because either Hardy isnt a fan or didnt sign off getting him, or that the Jazz really believe in Keyonte and dont want someone getting in the way of him.

I am assuming we didnt trade Clarkson because the offers were too low and we think we can get more for him when his contract drops off next year or that the FO/coaching staff loves him and thinks hes good for the young guys.

I am assuming we kept THT because we didnt feel like we owed him to pay for him to move. I though he might get used in a trade as salary filler as an expiring but none of the bigger deals happened.

It looks like we are clearing some cap space for next off-season. But who do we realistically think we can chase? Paul George likely signs an extension and even if not we probably arent on his list of teams he would consider plus the fact he is 34 soon. I guess maybe you could try with OG, but that is doubtful as well. I worry we will try for Miles Bridges after all the rumors we had to trade for him. Other than that its just some role players that dont matter much.

We should sign Simone Fontecchio to an offer sheet. He'd be a great fit on this team. Sign Kelly Olynyk too. I have a feeling they both could learn Utah's system relatively quickly.
 
Not exactly sure why but got a feeling we will be after KAT the moment the Wolves decide to end that relationship. Maybe stems from supposedly being after Porzingis and landing on Collins.

I don't see any reason why they would have to choose between the 2. They don't play the same position and they aren't dealing with a salary crunch.

They have a salary crunch and those guys aren't amazing fits together.

How do they have a salary crunch?

Without knowing specifics:

Extremely cheap owners and 3 players making over 30 million next year with upcoming payments to Herb Jones/Trey Murphy and the need to either pay Jonas or find a new center.

If they arent in one next year, there is one coming soon, especially if you're giving Ingram a max or near max deal to keep him.
