Trade Rumors Involving the Jazz

I believe he is about to have his 2nd minor surgery.

He’s out for the year supposedly… there are no minor surgeries if the result is 20 months of missed basketball. Come on now. If he comes back his first year back will be a load management find yourself type of year. I’m honestly sorry I even brought the guy up cuz I probably wouldn’t sign up for the process the next year and change will be… and the payoff is shrinking.
 
In some ways it would be better if he had torn an ACL and had the big surgery. The continual problems and fact the docs are no closer to figuring it out now hints that it’s a condition to this online doctor… if it’s shattered at least it’s very obvious what the problem is and what needs to be done.

It's still minor surgery.

It's be more explainable which would make people more comfortable but it wouldn't necessarily be a better scenario.

He just needs time to figure it out. Perfect situation in Utah.
 
It's just ****ing weird to me the people most obsessed with being as bad as possible so we have the best chance at high end talent are also the people who are handwringing over giving up a late first or two for a high level talent w/ an unique and versatile skillset.

Lmao… I’m sure most of us would be fine with a Conley/Ball swap. In what ****ing world are we giving up 1 let alone 2 firsts for a dude who will be out the entire season? That’s bad asset management 101.

No it's not.

Y'all are legitimately dumb as hell for thinking a flyer on Lonzo's health isnt worth the 25th or worse pick in the draft. It's embarrassing.
 
Destroyed meniscus is worse than a crucial ligament tear. It’s worse than an Achilles tear. That **** only repairs itself in specific situations (reparative surgery and many months of rest), and he went the route of just removing the problem tissue. If he’s out significant cartilage in his knee, the body can’t heal that.

You, like everyone else, has no actual idea what is going on with Lonzo's knee.
 
Plenty of athletes have had unexplainable issues w/ their knees and they have recovered and come back. It's not end of the world, and even if it is, the idea that giving up the 25th or worse pick is not worth that gamble is completely asinine.

He took the shortcut surgery. He is permanently missing cartilage in his knee. These are anatomical realities.

I don’t know all the intricate details, but apparently SPECIALISTS don’t, either.

But sure, YOU know better.

I dont know. I have admitted that.

His talent level is worth the gamble. That's all I've said.

But yall want to hold onto a pick that will likely be the 25th or worse in the draft, and that player amounts to a NBA rotation player like 20% of the time.

Jimmy Butler and Desmond Bane and a whole bunch of good role players say hello.

You can also pickup good players on expiring deals with a late first.

The pick becoming Jimmy Butler or Desmond Bane is lower % chance at Lonzo having a relatively healthy career.

Hold onto all the late first and dont take any risk cuz we might get a star at 27
