Trade Partner with GSW?

GSW is not trading their future in #2 pick for what is probably gonna be a one yr rental of Rudy Gobert. Don't think all the GMs are willing to consistently trade picks in the lottery for the 1-2 seasons rentals. Let alone a top 3 pick.

My thought was that they'd be more willing to extend Gobert for big bucks in order to maximize the Clay/Steph window (and since they have all kinds of money to play with). Why do you think they wouldn't be willing to do that? (Or am I ignorant on the cap rules -- can Rudy only be extended if he remains on the Jazz?)
 
DL's greatest accomplishment is forming the dominant GS team that destroyed the NBA. I could see him wanting to top that his second time around and build a more dominant GS team.

Not sure if you're responding to the OP, or to my fake trade today. If it's the latter, you're saying GS would have to be crazy to not be searching for a trade like this?

I think Draymond plays a pretty key role on that team. He'd be sorely missed, even if Gobert offers the better individual return. But yes, that would have to be GS's thinking: that with Gobert (even without Draymond) and cobbling together enough low-salary ring-chasing vets, they could make a few more runs for the title.

But on the other hand, if we're not totally sold on Gobert long term (I'm kind of agnostic on this), I like the return of this trade for us, too. It allows us to retain a very competitive team over the next couple of years and I think puts us in a more hopeful long-term position than we are now.

I was making a joke, because DL taking all of GS's garbage a few years ago allowed GS to build their dynasty. It's DL's fault they become so good. I was just saying he'd trade Gobert to GS to make them great again, regardless of what it does to Utah.

I think the Wiggins contract has significant negative value and Detroit isn't really looking to win now... so Mike is not that important.

Not interested in an argument though... I think the scenarios laid out in this thread are really really unlikely.

You're right. Highly unlikely.


Not sure what Detroit does, but their cap space and direction is compelling.

I have thought about this Gobert destination and my conclusion was there is no way they are trading Green. I could see them offer Wiggins and #2 for Gobert.

If Green was traded I do not think the #2 would be added beside I think Green is a good player but I am not sure how he would fit the Jazz locker room.

Jazz would have to make 1 more trade to get rid of Conley then I like it more. DM needs to play the point and have the ball in his hands.
