Should the Jazz trade the Celtics for one of their bigs?

This team has serious holes, though. This might go a long way in plugging one, especially since it's no guarantee that Lyles is an NBA player.
 
I think we are fine. Withey as a backup center is doing well and hope he gets more minutes and is only 25. I think Lyles will develop into a good backup PF. We have Booker as a 5th big energy guy, his play is improving and will get back to what he was last season. Plus Booker is a great team guy.

I wish we would start Withey with Gobert out. Favors would get to play the position he is better at and our defense would be decent still with Favors and Withey protecting the paint.

The GS pick is a 1st and basically worthless to us. I'd start there and throw in a few 2nd's.

nonononono that pick is far from worthless that's a 4 year restricted deal in a LOOOADED draft. Look at the gems this FO's uncovered in the late first round already..
 
Olynyk will cost a ton, did you see him vs the Warriors the other night? His value is currently as high as it ever was. It doesn't make sense to pay that much and then put him on the bench..

I like Mickey, but given the contract they signed him to, so do they and they'd only move him for an obvious overpay.

Not interested in helping the C's unload the other players either, they'll be clearing room for more young players soon enough, no reason to give them future assets to do it..
 
If hope is for Lyles develop I know one thing...jazz can take any one on Jazzfanz and develop and same result. This is not real hope I am sorry

it doesn't matter, we have the assets to overpay. We have multiple first rounders that aren't even ours-- that's way way more than enough for either player. We all know how much Boston loves draft picks. Helps them make a splash for a big star.

None of those players are worth a first-round pick. Not even close.
 
The Suns drafted Booker and signed Teltovic. We could have done that instead of them. That'd be nice right now.

And The Benevolent Father took the opportunity to pass on Reggie Jackson to go for a rusty bucket of scraps.

Is Reggie Jackson's 5-year, $80 million contract through 2020 a good idea for a team that will probably have to max out 3 front-court players and just drafted their PG with the 5th overall?

Lets not forget how this team was playing with Exum and Gobert after that trade.
