Re-Tool Younger Trade Idea

No!!! You aren’t understanding me!!! First pay him whatever he wants. Second, if you dump Gobert you may as well trade DM because he’s going no where without Gobert. That’s effectively wasting Mitchell’s best years. If Gobert is gon who is UTAH JAZZ getting to be a star along Sid DM? That’s what I thought.

Idiot! Mitchell is the type of player you build around with. You could move any piece on the board but you don’t move him. Wtf? He is the franchise.

Though I think we do whatever we can to lock them both in and see what we can maneuver through their contracts. I think with both we have our best chance at a chip.

Mitchell is 24. He'll be in his prime the season after next, if not next season.
The season after next Rudy is 30+. Not many centers are worth $30+ after 30.

This trade idea has us getting Wood and PJ Washington. I think both can provide what Rudy does in 2 years. And at a cheaper number.

Man, whenever people here argue why Rudy is irreplaceable & trading him is a bad idea, it makes me wonder what a different story it would've been had DL drafted Mitchell Robinson in 18.

First who the **** are you to use my line? Second. It’s easier to build around MITCHELL if Gobert is around. No one star is going to choose to come here in free agency, so if we trade Gobert we have to get lucky twice in the draft and in at least two of the next three years.
 
If Rudy won't re-sign in Charlotte, the Hornets won't make that deal. Even if he will re-sign with them, I'm not sure it fits their development timeline.
 
Could Giannis move needle to make jazz serious contenders and would he want to play here. Not many nba cities compared to SLC looked down upon but Milwaukee is one of the few
 
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...

Clearing space for Wood is headscratching because he is a guy who can be found or developed. There is always athletic,limited offensive players in every draft
 
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.
Good insight. Not ready to completely agree but I respect the take

Not all of them are the size of Anthony Davis and actually develop like Wood. He’s very good.

Charlotte last summer sign and traded for 26 year old Rozier. There were reports they wanted Randle this offseason. Rudy, at 28, fits a timeline with Rozier and Randle. Graham was an unexpected gem who fits as well.

I agree that Charlotte doesn't do the trade if Rudy won't commit long term. However, I have already said I dont think many teams are out there willing to give Rudy $30+. If Charlotte says they will, they'll have Rudy.
