Trade Mitchell (Include Clarkson)

And 2 years ago, and last year, and this week, and next week, and next month, and during the next playoffs, ad nauseum.
Yep. I don't think we can win a title relying so much on 3 small guys who just aren't great defenders. Many have been saying that for a while now. Don, Conley and JC worry me when we lack so much in perimeter defense.

3 months ago (or was it 3 weeks ago) I was getting crucified for wanting a more athletic/defensive wing. It’s been obvious the whole time.

No you weren’t. You were being mocked, by me at least, for reinventing the wheel. And for not being more specific while doing so. And for puffing like teh reaaal original. Almost all of your claims had posted in this site for 3+ years. I’ve been solidly in that crowd, fwiw.

The fact that you have this perception (quoted above) is just another reason to lol at you.
 
I think we need to get back to the point of this thread and @Saint Cy of JFC saying we should trade Mitchell because of a few lack luster regular season games.
 
If Mitchell won’t play the point he should be traded. He can’t match up defensively and be elite at any position but point guard. I don’t understand what the reluctance is to play that position full time. Conley needs to go.

I can probably get with the notion that we may need to see what we can get for Clarkson. But trading Donovan or Mike right now is pretty dumb unless you get like 1.50 on the dollar and a player that fits too.

The problem is the size of the starting backcourt. Mike, Don, and Royce are all small and outside of Don playing his best, they don't make up for their lack of size in other aspects.

Royce is not starting material. Can only hit 3s when wide open, and is not the defender the Jazz try to make him out to be. This years rule changes allowing tighter D with more contact, makes him look even worse.

Mike probably makes the most sense depending on what we can get for him. I like him a lot, but not in a backcourt with Don.
 
We should trade the guy who has scored 30+ efficiently in the last two playoffs… because he sucked in a few regular season games.
I hate how Donovan plays most of the time. The basis of my continued support is that he legit plays like a superstar in the playoffs and that ability is beyond priceless.

That being said, if this team fizzles out before the WCF, then the Jazz should blow this up and see what premium assets they can get while the pieces we have have any value.
