I'd much rather maximize this year's title run that hedge for the future.

Well, this year's Bojan isn't necessarily helping us maximizing that chance, is he? If it was last year's Bojan, I absolutely agree. But this year he is recovering from his wrist surgery and having ups and downs shooting the ball. And he's been an absolute liability on the floor and costing us ball games when his shot isn't falling.
He may recover at some point, maybe by the end of this season, maybe during next season. But he gotta hurry the **** up because his inconsistent shooting really isn't helping our title chance in any way.
Either he recovers at some point or we should be looking at other options "maximizing" our title chance thus season. And getting Danny Green is absolutely one of them.
You were part of the dumbass poster group who screamed to trade Conley for the past year, right?

Soooo getting the guy with about 150 playoff games and 3 titles under his belt hurts our title run this year?
Yall are also mentioning Bojan's playoff numbers like they are good... they are not great. He helped Indiana hold their own one year against the Lebron Cavs. His playoff numbers are worse than his regular season numbers.
What about Bojan screams "this guy is a killer in the playoffs".
Someone please clue me in here on how Bojan is so much better than Danny?

Yep, because last year's Conley did not help our title chance when he's struggled in most of the games, most notably his 2-13 effort in G7 versus Denver that shot us right out of the playoffs. So sorry for nothing. This year luckily he's been helping though. Will we want to wait for another year to see if Bojan can recover from his wrist surgery?

Yep. Conley has been a much better player this year than last. I'm sure somebody is going to bring up some stat that doesn't truly paint the whole story to try to say that Conley is having some ridiculously good season and he's completely irreplaceable.
I really hope that Conley can continue to be great come playoff time. I do have my concerns.

Even a struggling Bojan takes us past Denver last year. We probably beat them pretty easily with Bojan playing exactly how he is right now. Even a struggling Bojan has gravity for the defense. You can't leave him open. You can't give him the same space that Royce gets.
My hope is that Conley and Bojan play to their average or better about half the time come playoff time. If they do, we can compete with anybody.
So your winning strategy is to sell low on players the moment they struggle?

Ummmm having Danny would have also had us beating Denver. Remember when Jamal Murray went human torch? Danny would have been really ****ing useful.
You can't leave Danny open either. His career % is slightly better than Bojan's on a similar amount of attempts.

Trading Bojan for Danny Green is anything but a "sell-low". I'd be surprised if sixers take the offer
Just dont think he fits the strength of the team. Jazz strength is they got a lot of dudes who can shoot and put the ball on the floor. Bogey with his size is a pretty big part of that. If he's on he's a super tough mismatch for the other team to deal with.
It's not like Bogey has been bad all year. Hell he was pretty good in February. He averaged 16 points on 47/39 splits. March has just been really rough on him. Hopefully it's just the road heavy schedule getting to him and he evens out once the Jazz get some home games in.
