Trade Confirmed: Jazz get jack for Bogey

The Fresh Prince said:
I'm convinced a lot of you don't watch the NBA, and just Jazz games.

And wth, the forum wants a full fledged tank. Ainge makes a trade saving salary, getting a decent big in return that can mentor the younger bigs and you lose your marbles.

Lol what do you all want? Make up your mind.

We want every single first round pick. Duh.
 
Last thing and then hopefully the time between postings is at least months, but hopefully years:

There hasn't been consensus like this on how bad a deal has been since Doke got drafted so let that sit on your tongue for the next however long.
 
So Larsen confirmed they had options for a late first, which was fair value, and they opted for the pseudo-salary dump.

****ing assets, bruh? Also, KO is a better basketball fit so the net is the team is not as bad as offloading most of our best current players.

You're not going to get assets for every player, mang. Bogey is 33, going on 34 with a wrist that was surgically repaired.

And we already have a decent load of assets. Lee could be a surprise too. We'll be alright, no need to overreact. We know we're tanking. Just roll with it.
 
What an odd trade. I don't get it, other than people saying it'll save the Jazz money and they might use that for another trade. If it's just money, how much money does Smith need?

If after all of this they decide to get cold feet about THE MOST IMPORTANT PART OF THE ENTIRE ****ING PLAN then I am finally the **** out on this ****.

If you are tanking you move value for future picks while taking back as little on court value as possible. KO will play 25-30 minutes a night and be good while he is out there. That will win a few extra games.

I need to see the follow up moves but not squeezing LA and Detroit for a couple seconds is wild... if all they do is cut Doke/JB or some others to avoid the roster crunch then there is no grand master plan here. Just kinda winging it.
 
I worked swing shift last night, so I slept in this morning and just barely woke up to this news. What the **** is this trade?!?! Saben Lee and Olynyk, and no draft picks?? Make it make sense. Is this really the best offer that was on the table for Bogey?? How could we not get a 1st? And why are we acquiring two players when we have too many players as it is? I'm so confused right now.
 
I'm seeing a lot of people here not understanding the point of this deal.

For a GM like Ainge, it's important to lose trades from time to time, to keep teams trading with you. It's hard to keep fleecing teams if everybody's too scared to trade with you.

That's all I got.
