Trade Rumors Involving the Jazz

I'd rather have Hartenstein than Toppin if that's possible
I'm just not worried about a backup 5 at all. Its possible of course. Toppin is mildly intriguing to me. I did look at his pick and roll stats... and you'd think he'd be good there... but he's not great and he's hardly ever done it. Maybe its there but you'd think he'd be a decent roll man. Maybe he just sucks at it.
 
Can someone tell me why would want to trade Beasley or Vando for players like Kennard?

Why wouldn't we just keep them instead of taking back worse players with no picks?

I can’t. Jazz should still be in asset collection mode right now. They should do everything they can to flip Conley, Clarkson (minus an extension before the deadline), Beasley, Olynyk and Vando for picks or pick swaps. Moving up from the Nets/76ers pick into the late teens/early 20’s should be our priority. I want to maximize their ability to add key rotational players with huge upside starting next year. That way they’re playing at a high level when Lauri hits his prime.
 
Jazz should really go trade for fvv. He’s only 28. Yea he wants to get paid but he would be fantastic on this Jazz team.
No thanks. He already turned down a 4/$115 mil extension from Toronto which just seems like crazy money. If Ainge were to pursue anyone on the Raps I'd prefer it be Anunoby who is 6'-7" and has another year left on his contract. He would cost a few picks from their warchest.

FVV, OG, Trent Jr, and Clarkson all represented by Klutch Sports and will all get huge contracts.
