Potential Trade Targets

Putting all the tea leaves together......

I think the Jazz are trying to upgrade Sexton and Clarkson more than anything. If that's through a big assets package, they will take it, but I think with the Jrur/Dame interest, and now the Dejounte interest, it's clear. Utah does not believe in Sexton overall. He will be traded this deadline or in the off-season. I
 
"The Jazz are active in the market, with Jordan Clarkson, Kelly Olynyk and Collin Sexton routinely described as available assets. Interestingly, the talks suggested by sources are not for future draft capital. The Jazz, sources say, called the Nets to inquire about Mikal Bridges, though they found the same impossibly high bar to clear in return.

Utah seems to be pursuing upgrades to the roster and not rebuilding moves.

Olynyk, in particular, is highly sought after in the market. He’s a backup center in a market in which everyone wants size help for the playoffs who can also shoot, pass and defend. Miami has shown interest in Olynyk in the past, though with their recent seven-game slide, one source said, “No one knows what the hell Miami is going to do in the next week, as much as we know what any team will do."
 
I still have this creeping feeling that Trae Young will be a Utah Jazz player by next off-season.

Just feel like with him missing the ASG and the Hawks sucking it's a perfect storm for his value to be low enough the Jazz can throw a really enticing offer that will be hard to turn down.

Why are we so in love with ballhogs ball-dominant guards?

I mean... get rid of Sexton and Clarkson, replace them with people like Murray or Trae (at a huge cost)? Why?

When you have efficient off-ball players on the roster, it's not a flaw that has to be "fixed" by bringing in dudes that really, really like to dribble and shoot. You complement those off-ball guys with people who can create but are team ball oriented.

Name me a really good team that doesn't have a ball dominant wing. The closest one is Denver and Murray can definitely be ball dominant at times. Particularly in the playoffs.

Trae is an elite playmaker as well

You’ve spoken a few things into existence, let this be one.

Does anyone have a reason for why Murray went from being a fabulous rebounder for a guard on the Spurs to a mediocre one on the Hawks (sort of in tandom with an overall decline in +/- effectiveness)?

Hawks a way better team? All I got. I’m grasping at straws though or maybe he hates his situation so he’s not doing his all?
 
Hoopshype is scrambling for stuff to write about. Their top story rn is that Killian Hayes is on the block.

I mean, the guy who is a healthy scratch in the worst team in the league.
