Trade Rumors Involving the Jazz

[Miggs]

Or was he traded to the Blazers?

 

[Handlogten's Heros]

THe problem is he can't. He's not a super high IQ player. He's got a high scoring feel and a good feel for drive and kick, but he is moderate to low IQ in most other facets of the game.

I think you are likely correct... but I think there are also some "he doesn't want to" issues as well.

Kuzma + Ish Smith for Conley works

Kcp/hui for Conley

Maybe, but Don does go into those "Im going to try hard to playu lock down D mode" where he will try and get into a low stance and get up in people, and he still gets cooked or he loses focus immediately when off ball".

We think he has the capability of being good on D because he was projected as a defender coming out of school. Well, I think he probably would have been a bust on that end if the offense didnt come through. He's just not very good on D.

Im sure to some degree that's mental fatigue of having to handle a lot of scoring/playmaking, but his biggest proponents on this board (I mean Lopo) want him to be a full-time PG surrounded by 3&D wings. It's only going to get worse.

Kcp/hui for Conley

You know what, now that I look at Washington's free agent/cap situation, they probably want to keep Rui as Kuz insurance. Kuzma has a player option next year he will likely reject. If they lose Kuz, they can re-sign Rui. So it might have to be KCP/Ish/2nd round picks (if they have any to give)

They could send #54, and another in 26 and 27 but it would be conditional on a first they owe to OKC conveying... so one second and two conditional seconds

If you did Conley and NAW for KCP/Ish/Todd/Carey and second rounders... it saves us close 8-9M if you keep those guys. I may try and sneak Gay in there if you could instead. I don't care for Todd or Carey... you could also likely give cash to a team to take Ish as a backup... though we may actually need someone at his level.

I don't love saving Ryan money but if it saves us from doing a bad salary dump later then whatevs.

 

[Handlogten's Heros]

If it was just KCP and scraps I’d probably find something else and consider Conley off the bench. I think Detroit or some team may bite on Mike if they miss their primary target.

 

[Handlogten's Heros]

If OKC wants to jump from 12 to 10 Wiz could do 10 for 12 and 30... then they send KCP/Ish and 30 to us for Mike.

Washington not gonna give up on Rui anytime soon as they are living on all those sweet Japanese sponsorships.

 

[Elizah Huge]

If we could get Rui or Deni in a deal for Conley that’s the type of home run we need to pounce on. Get one of them and they develop into something great and it’s perfect.

 

[LoPo]

Me: Our star player who we are building around should fix these fairly obvious flaws as it will be critical to our success.

Jazzfanz: You hater moron... quit blaming Donovan!!!!

You said we win that series if Donovan plays better. That's blaming Donovan in a way.

That, my friend, is a bogus assessment.

We have lost series when Donovan has put up record breaking numbers.
