Trade Rumors Involving the Jazz

I haven't looked at many of the trade ideas thrown around here so far, but has anybody discussed:

Jazz get McDermott and 2nd rounders
Lakers get Love and Josh Richardson
Cavs get Beasley
Spurs get Russ and 2nd rounders

Seems to make sense for all four teams right? Russ gets bought out of course.

Jazz get below the luxury tax and get 2nd rounders
Lakers get two players they need more than Russ without sacrificing future cap space
Cavs get a wing for expiring Love
Spurs get to shed McDermott and get draft picks

I mean I guess you could cut out the Jazz altogether and just send McDermott to Cleveland but I think it makes sense for us to shed half a million or so to avoid the luxury.
Aren't we already well below the tax?
 
On Lowe’s podcast Windhorst said the Kyrie deal hasn’t gone through yet and the reason why is Brooklyn is trying to re-route players elsewhere.

Beasley/Vando for DFS/Mills is only a 513K difference salary wise.

Sounds like they want to reroute Dinwiddie

We are. I was going off of Basketball Reference which is usually pretty spot on..... https://www.basketball-reference.com/contracts/
21Utah Jazz$150,749,265$134,111,459$43,470,744$30,237,463

But If you select Utah Jazz, it actually has us at $141 million.

Seems like they are about as rusty as I am. Maybe they have also taken about 6 months off from really caring.

So disregard my trade idea based off of saving cap money lol
 
What does Little do well?
He's an average nba wing... he's shooting well this year but he has steadily improved and is just about to turn 23. He's signed to a 4 year like 27M extension. He's cheap production on the wing with maybe a chance at something more.
