On ESPN 700, Tony Jones said the Jazz have offers for some of their vets but they need to get the Donovan situation figured out first.

If that is the case then we should be pushing to get that one done sooner than later. It shouldn't be the case though. If the trades are meh... then sure be super patient and make Knicks sweat.

Tony said there is one deal in particular that he knows of...a team is willing to make an offer for some of the Jazz's vets and the Jazz aren't averse to making the deal, but they can't make that deal until they know if Donovan is going to be on the roster or not. He says if Donovan is gone then it makes sense to do the deal and go all in on young guys but if Don is still on the roster, then they will likely keep some of the vets and try to be competitive next season.

Which is so dumb… just do both deals. Thanks for passing it along. If it’s the Lakers deal those picks will end up better than the Knicks picks anyway… settle for 75%-85% of your huge asking price and make up the difference by offloading vets and improve your pick from late lotto to top 5. Hope Tony is wrong and that isn’t how we are playing this.

My "Ainge almost traded" senses are tingling.
 
Am I the only one who finds it amusing when Knick fans say that eventually Donovan will go to Ainge and request a trade, and that's when they'll have the all the leverage? It would be like if I decided to sell my house, put it on the market, and placed a "For Sale" sign in my yard. Then as potential buyers were walking through the open house, my wife came up to me and said, "I want to move."

I mean, imagine how that conversation would actually go down:

Donovan to Ainge: "I would like to be traded"

Ainge to Donovan: "Ummmm, have you been under a rock for the past month??"

if the jazz are planning on tanking, then why does it matter if they trade Don or not?
