Re-Tool Younger Trade Idea

I think LoPo enjoyed the jazz more when they were losing every game and drafting high in the draft. Lol

I would rather take a step back with the hopes of taking 3 steps forward than continue on knowing that we will not have enough to compete for a title as currently constructed.

And this trade only makes sense if Rudy expects close to supermax or might leave.

Your idiocy knows no bounds. If your trading Gobert you better be prepared to trade Mitchell as well.

Nope. You can't see the forest for the trees. Mitchell's success doesn't have to be tied to Rudy. By the time Don hits his prime, Rudy will be a one dimensional, overpaid, past his prime big.

If these were the days of AK, you would have been one of those guys scared to trade him because you are afraid of change.

We cannot overpay or lose Rudy for nothing. Those are the main things to be afraid of.

I think the real value of Rudy is in the middle of what @LoPo and @TheeIdioticMinivanK think about him. But seriously this proposed trade seems pointless, we mostly get free cap space in return and nothing really solid.

Pointless? You don't value PJ Washington, Miles Bridges and #3?

Ok, didn't notice the 3 pick, but those two guys don't excite me.

The main parts of the trade are #3 and using cap space to sign Wood.

Understandable about Bridges and PJ. I don't think they are excellent assets, but I think they could be quality depth guys for the long run. If Bridges can be another Royce and Washington a Favors type...

It seems risky. I think of LA a couple years back before the AD trade, they had plenty of young pieces and picks but were accomplishing nothing. Now they have a very old roster, plus a top 10 player in AD (And LBJ obviously) and they are competing for a championship. I’d much rather proceed with the known, which is great talents, then trade for younger players and cross are fingers it pans out. Makes much more sense to me to continue pushing in the playoffs and hope we can break through, then throwing in the towel for young guys who we hope will develop into greater parts then we already have.

Well part of reason for LA's underachieving were because they had a terrible coach in Luke Walton who didn't know what to do with the talents at hand. He did the same thing to Sacramento and they soon lost their fast pace identity they got a season ago under Joerger. Brandon Ingram, Josh Hart and Lonzo Ball all improved their games significantly at Pels. Have LA kept Walton for this season, not sure the theory of "young vs old" could still hold up.
 
3rd pick is kinda tricky this year because Lamelo ball were projected to be the BPA at 3rd lol. And i don't want Malik Monk cuz as a shoot-first midget guard who doesn't play defense, I don't think he fits Quin's coaching philosophy. Instead, I want Hornets' 32nd pick to draft another wing. Someone like Tyler Bey or Paul Reed should be available at that spot.

If they gave us monk and graham with the 3 pick and cap room to sign woods or someone around 18-20 I would maybe think it’s fair. There are too many variables around Washington. I think Devonte’ Graham is going to be a good player and monk could work his way into being a decent rotation player. Those two with the third pic and the ability to find a good FA might be worth trading Gobert but only if contract negotiations fail.
