I’m interested in Westbrook’s buyout. Wonder if we save a couple million or if it’s just his salary minus the vet minimum.
Andy Larsen did a great article where he put together a model on why the Jazz got absolute garbage value on this trade - you should pull your head out of your *** and read it sometime.
3 seconds and 2 second swaps, all protected.yeah 3 seconds and the promise of a 4th

The truly hilarious part is that if the Lakers are as awful as projected there's a fantastic chance the Blazers just got 5x the value for GP2 that we got for Conley/Beasley/Vanderbilt.Shut up and stop ****ing crying. You complain and cry about everything.
Sure looks like there was a ton of value to be had around the league huh. You think the Lakers would trade that first for 15 seconds? 20 seconds? The answer is no.
We needed to tank, didn't you say we'd be better after we traded the veterans? lmaoAndy Larsen did a great article where he put together a model on why the Jazz got absolute garbage value on this trade - you should pull your head out of your *** and read it sometime.
I think you may need to step away from the keyboard if you are this upset over a trade. Probably, not healthy.Andy Larsen did a great article where he put together a model on why the Jazz got absolute garbage value on this trade - you should pull your head out of your *** and read it sometime.
they did get garbage value. but the point wasn't to get value in return. Ainge would admit the value they got back was garbage. the point was to shed salary and tank - he accomplished that. anything they got back was gravy.Andy Larsen did a great article where he put together a model on why the Jazz got absolute garbage value on this trade - you should pull your head out of your *** and read it sometime.
If we were going to tank, we should've started that process in October, not in February when we're at .500 and our absolute best case scenario tanking wise isn't even bottom 5.they did get garbage value. but the point wasn't to get value in return.

i agree 100% - the worst thing about the trade is that it didn't happen four months ago.If we were going to tank, we should've started that process in October, not in February when we're at .500 and our absolute best case scenario tanking wise isn't even bottom 5.
Doubt there was much trade interest in Conley, Beasley, etc in August. We rehabbed their value.If we were going to tank, we should've started that process in October, not in February when we're at .500 and our absolute best case scenario tanking wise isn't even bottom 5.
Honestly, I don't think I have ever seen him post something positive about the Jazz. Does he even like the Jazz?Shut up and stop ****ing crying. You complain and cry about everything.

But don't take my word for it. Even the Utah Jazz subreddit which is a bastion for super optimistic/homerism takes universally hates this trade.
I actually feel a lot better about the trade after watching today go down to the wire. High end trades mostly happened yesterday and today was leftovers and 2nd round picks. If the Lakers pick ends up being conveyed at all, it will be a good trade. I don’t love the protections, but we’re still WAY more likely to get that pick than not. Lakers could tank the eff out of that season and still fall out of the top 4 pretty easily. I think they’ll probably just try to be competitive tbh.Sure looks like there was a ton of value to be had around the league huh.
