Trade Rumors Involving the Jazz

From Tony’s recent article…nothing groundbreaking.

Utah’s variance for a draft night where it enters with zero picks is as wide as can be. There is a chance that the Jazz make multiple trades by the end of the draft, and that the roster looks significantly different than it looked when the day started. There is a chance that Utah’s roster looks much the same as it did when the day started, and the only real significant change will be who’s coaching the team.

The latter is probably less likely than the former, sources say.

The Jazz are a team motivated to change itself. They want to get bigger and more athletic on the perimeter. They want to get a little younger in some spots. They want to improve significantly on the defensive end, where the perimeter is concerned. And, they would like the runway for Donovan Mitchell to become the point guard to have a little more clarity.

Can all of that happen in one night? Can it happen in a week? Or even by the end of the offseason? Probably not. But the Utah front office has committed itself to attempt to change the roster. It’s just a matter of whether anything materializes that can fit.
those changes are 100% what i want to happen, along with Rudy staying. Retool, don't rebuild, aim for a deep run the year after this one.
 
Yup/ Fox a tough fit too and they dont even fit each other.
Right? and if you do that deal you need shooters around them (preferably 3 and D types) and they send out Hield... which he ain't great... but now what you doing with Holmes?

Super excited to see what Ryan does as he morphs into Vivek 2.0
 
We could have done that Lakers deal... if the Lakers draft Moore or LaRavia with that pick imma burn ****.
 
Tony Jones threw some cold water on the Jazz making trades on ESPN700. Said that the Jazz don't have great assets on their roster to trade and that Rudy is really important to the Jazz but he's not sure how important he is to the rest of the NBA, and Conley and Royce are important to the Jazz but he's not sure how important they are to the rest of the NBA either.

He also said the Jazz have no interest in Vucevic or White and that even if they include Patrick Williams it would still likely take multiple 1st round picks for the Jazz to trade them Rudy. He says he doesn't see a deal with Chicago happening. He also doesn't sound at all optimistic about a trade happening for Rudy with the Hawks.

He said the best trade for the Jazz would be with Toronto for OG and Trent Jr. but he said Portland may screw that up for the Jazz by trading the #7 pick for OG.

Well you can only pay a certain amount, so it's basically up to the team who deals to pick who they like. I'm guessing AInge doesnt have too many friends like that ready to do him solids.

Sounds like the Jazz suck *** and should probably blow it up.

That is true... I think you can go up to 6M though... and second rounders haven't gotten quite that high yet.

That's weird... like those players are only good here... like maybe we are just overvaluing them. If you need to move and you list your house at the price it means to you then you may never sell.

Sam Amick of The Athletic also saying that the Hawks interest in trading for Gobert is 'overblown.' If Toronto doesn't happen, it sounds like the Jazz may need to figure out a three-team scenario involving Chicago.

I would have thought the Blazers would be interested in putting Gobert next to Dame, tbh.
 
Also if you are on willing to do a deal with Williams plus like 3 first then you aren't being really aggressive. You might be active but that isn't aggressive.
 
Tony also said he's very confident that the Jazz could get into the first round for Bogey, but he said the Jazz really value Bogey. He also made a strange comment that the suspicion is that the true movement and turning over of this roster will probably happen by this time next offseason.

I REALLY don't want to run it back again next season.
