Trade Rumors Involving the Jazz

I really wish that Conley could somehow be turned into John Collins. Would take a 3rd or even 4th team, but I think adding him would do so much for our team.

Don moves to PG.
Bojan can play some SF.
When Rudy sits, we can try some small ball.
We add much needed youth and athleticism.

From there, we just look to add as many perimeter defenders as possible through free agency and even trades.

We don't have to trade Rudy, but we would have to make a bold addition like this if we want to keep Don and Rudy together.

Turn Conley into 20mil in cap space would have been better
 
Even if we let Conley walk/traded Favors we wouldn't have had any cap space.
Yeah which is why we should have never traded for Conley in the first place. The moment we traded for him, it's done. It's game over. We had no choice but to bring him back because we had no cap space even if we just let him walk.
 
Tony Jones said:
• Team envisions Donovan moving to PG full time, doesn't know what they do with Conley.
• Teams inquired about Rudy leading up to the draft but nothing serious ever materialized.
 
Conley might net a decent return at the deadline, he's set to make $24M in '23-24 on an expiring but only $14M is guaranteed.
He should still have some value for the right team. His numbers last year were decent enough, shooting over 40% from 3. I thought he would have been perfect for the Sixers a year ago for example, before the Simmons drama and trade.

The Mavericks, assuming they lose Brunson, are a logical fit. The Pelicans also make sense.
 
This is not a rumor but just a reminder. Juanchos contract is structured greatly. He should be involved in one deal or another..
 
BTW when news that Juan is being waived tomorrow happens... it is a nothing burger... they can still bring him back and will likely do so at less than $7M... I'd bet he is a minimum guy... BAE at the most.
 
Also the Knicks are trying to give away Nerlens Noel. We could absorb him into the Ingles trade exception...
Ingles was traded for one reason that’s too obvious for me to even mention. There’s no intention of that TPE being used. In fact, we’re now in a worse position, because instead of having Joe off our cap this year, we’ve now got $5M of NAW. That’s going to be a lot of tax as collateral of the money we “saved” trading Joe. The only way we use the TPE is if that’s the only logistical way to pick up a particular guy and we were dumping salary elsewhere. But even then that move wouldn’t happen because it would imply we’re trading some draft asset (that we don’t have) to pick up a theoretical Ingles TPE player. But, more importantly, it isn’t going to be Noel.
