I’ve noticed that Boston fans are really down on Smart, and Philly fans are really down on Green. It’s entirely possible they’ve both fallen off and aren’t as valuable as they used to be.

The Rockets are looking to move a player to allow Garrison Mathews to move up from two way status.

There are plenty who would give you wood. Whether as happy campers or as Houston Red Rockets... I am sure you will wake up one day, rollover, and you'll find the wood you are looking for.

My issue with this thread is that unless we get a player that breaks the top 7 rotational block, they won't get more than 10 MPG of garbage time under Quin.
Frankly we almost need to trade a rotational player to even see whatever player we get on the court at all.
We have some talent on our bench but we surely don't see enough of it which makes me a Sad Panda.

Watched the Raptors Nets game tonight. Very entertaining game. I was watching for Wantanabe specifically because of the love he gets on here recently. It was obviously just one game, but he looked bad. I noticed him out of position and missing rotations on defense a few times and he generally looked really slow and unathletic. He also happened to have a poor shooting night. I’d love to hear what others see in him.
Now Siakam on the other hand … he is really struggling from 3 this year and did last year as well, which would be a real problem on our team. otherwise he looks like exactly what we need. Doubt we have what it takes to get him but that is the kind of swing for the fences move I would love to see the Jazz try.

Can’t wait for him to hit 5 threes in the first game and for everyone to be like… “can’t believe this guy was still available… amazing find by super smart GM”

If the Jazz really wanted Grant I think the deal would be a three team deal where you extract a little extra value for Bogey...
So like this type of deal:
Utah out Bogey, Udoka, 2027 1st
Utah In: Grant
NY Out: Fournier and 2022 1st
NY In: Bogey
Det Out: Grant
Det In: Fournier, Utah 1st, NY 1st
Evan becomes a vet that can help Detroit with the young guys and not to be complete trash... he can recoup some of his value and they can move him later if they want... pick up two firsts for a great FA signing last year... pretty nice boost to rebuild.
I'm not sure I do it if I am the Jazz.... not sold on Grant.

I'm not certain about my feelings on Grant. The biggest question is what's the loss. I know we look at all of our offensive weapons and recognize we could sacrifice some for upgraded defense, but as it stands Bojan is our second leading scorer both overall and per minute, and the question would arise as to how much of that pie is affected by Bojan's presence, or lack thereof. Grant is putting up big numbers, but he's a totally different skillset that may be really clanky for everything overall. My gut would tell me that this would be about a step forward on defense but a step and a half back on offense.

I’m thinking of something more along the lines of what Cam Reddish provided for ATL last year in the playoffs. An athletic wing who can soak up minutes in specific situations to help swing a couple of quarters here and there.
I don’t think the jazz need to trade their most reliable secondary scorer to get this kind of player. I think they may need to trade Clarkson, though. And I think we also need to hope (because what else to we have to go on?) that Q will modulate his substitution patterns to maximize this kind of asset.
