Trade Rumors Involving the Jazz

Windhorst says Nets expected a bidding war for KD and that hasn't happened. Teams have made their offers and they haven't felt the need to increase them. Nets raised the price when Gobert deal went through, but the rest of the league doesn't seem to want to pay that price.

About Mitchell - the Jazz are telling teams they don't intend to trade him and Mitchell will not force any action... right now.

Yeah, the nope on the PHX package made it shoot well beyond into hyperbole.

And we’ll be there in 1 or 2 years anyway without Mitchell but have to endure more endless Mitchell rumors and abject mediocrity at “best” (actually worst IMO).

The biggest mistake this franchise made in the last ~10 years was not having the guts to tank after Deron left. Remember all of the fun of the Jefferson years? That’s what this feels like to me, except we don’t have any other promising players in the pipeline which creates an even stronger argument to getting on with the split.

It would probably be like that with any star we pick up in the draft. A lot of these rumors are old media spreading bs.

Donovan, if anything is going to want to show out this year without Rudy stealing the spotlight. It helps raise his value, if anything.

Wallace wasn't when in the same position as Rudy.

I'm just saying there's more athleticism to Rudy's game than folks think, with his reaction and ability to trail-and-tail. Dude's wingspan and size makes up for a part of his game, but it's not whole reason. That said, if he's still raking DPOYs at 35, it wouldn't surprise me.

Wallace didnt have a 9'9 standing reach.

Please stop pretending like we know what Minnesota is going to look like in 5/6/7 years from now. Nobody knows and that’s the beauty of getting those picks so far out.

Big Wos had a good take on the Don situation.

Basically said Donovon isnt good enough to make demands and he isnt good enough to drastically change your team's win total. Just strip the team, keep Mitchell, and tank. If a good offer comes for Mitchell, take it.

The pouting in the meantime will make for a fun sideshow.

They will probably still be a good team.

They have team control over Edwards for 6 more years at least.

They have team control over KAT for 5 years.

They have team control over Gobert for 4 years.

They got Jaden McDaniels for 6 more years.



Even if Gobert falls off, they have so many ways to pivot and augment their team. This is the kind of trade that sets them up for long-term franchise success.

Big Wos is a certified Donovan Mitchell hater lmao. I love it.

Not without trading a core piece. When Edwards comes due, the will be over the cap until the end of the decade. Gobert's trade literally meant they are all-in on the idea.

Yeah, you got to trade stuff to get stuff back, clearly.

very different for a 6'8" player who relies so heavily on his athleticism and a 7'2 player with a 7'9 span who relies mostly on his length.
