The Non-Jazz NBA Thread in the Jazz Section

Trae definitely got plugs while he was out. They look good… no judgement.
 
Who doesn't want him on the Jazz? I've never seen anyone even hint at this.
I brought it up a while back. Multiple posts followed saying that they wouldn't want to trade for him

There's a difference between not wanting to pay what it would take and not wanting Embiid on the team. But I do see we actually have one. I'm not crazy about trading for him either, but that's not because I wouldn't want him, I just think it would cost way too much given the risk.
 
Yeah, I'd love to have Embiid.

I just think the price is going to be astronomical and the Jazz arent in a great position to just add a star and be a top team. You're going to give up over half the assets you got in the Don/Rudy trade just to get Embiid. While I think a Sexton/Lauri/Embiid led team could be very good, who is the 4th/5th/6th guy on that team? The Jazz would likely have to give up at least one of Keyonte/Hendricks. If the Jazz wanted to go that route, they would have kept Simone. I dont think the star trade is quite on the table yet for the Jazz.
 
I just need a playoff run past the first round to put him in the top 10. Book/AD are proven. I'd understand having Edwards higher, but I dont feel the need to be early on it.

I think a true changing of the guard is on the horizon, but I need the new crop of guys to actually beat some dudes in the playoffs before they are top 10.

That’s fair. I’m just busing your balls. These “lists” are silly anyways.

Ya when I brought up Embiid I didn't even put any kind of trade proposal and was immediately met with posts talking about how he is too injury prone and old and hasn't ever won anything etc. So the complaints weren't cost related

Just like Luka is too whiny and too much of a ball hog.

Jazz fans will only settle for the perfect superstar apparently and at cheapest cost lol
