Trade Rumors Involving the Jazz

[Handlogten's Heros]

I think the Lakers are probably holding out that
someone like the Blazers start off terribly and agree to trade them Lillard for the picks.

I think they are hoping for something like that... and if that is the case there is still a deal we could make with Mike, Bogey, and a filler salary... plus something minor like swapping their 2023 pick for the Brooklyn/Philly pick. Since NO has swap rights we then get the worse of the NO and LA pick... so it moves you up like 4-5 spots maybe. We offload the last year of Mike's deal. If Dame becomes available they can trade Mike/Bogey/Filler plus the picks for him. Its functionally the same deal and I doubt Blazers would change how they feel about the deal. Dame will have some say on where he goes with the org.

If it simultaneously makes us 10 wins worse and lands us to premium future picks we'd be completely stupid not to do it. Vando is not the guy you think he is.

No, he’s going to be damn good and a monster next to Vic after we go 0-82. He’s going to be a superstar glue guy like a Rodman or Dray Green. We keeping his *** right here!!!

But seriously I believe in Vando, and think he will be too valuable to winning as he develops.

I don’t have delusions of grandeur. I know he won’t be a scorer or shooter or anything like that. What he is… is skilled in a lot of other area’s and has that dog in him. He’s a good passer with good instincts, plays hard, can handle the ball, long and athletic as hell. He’s young, needs to develop his thinking game which I see, just needs to be refined, no when to go for rebounds hard, when not to, help defend and all that jazz!!

More likely to be Bo Outlaw next to Dariq Whitehead.

Jake says JC for Jae is a thing Suns are inquiring on. Says Jae gets a buyout... I have a real hard time believing that as we could flip him for Danny Green and a couple seconds really easy. Suns won't do that deal because they need real players back. Jake is good but sometimes he doesn't connect all the dots on his intel.

Just let Vanderbilt try to expand his game and that will take away what benefit he brings.

I would try to keep him personally. I think he can get better. I dont expect him to get way better, but I like what he brings.

I like what he brings... if he's a third big type on a good team. I just don't see him as some transcendent defender... he's really good. His offense is rough. He can dribble a little but not with any real purpose. His finishing has been rough and I think his spacing issues will be more prevalent now that he's away from KAT.

I just think if you can get a pick for cashing in on him... I'd do it. He's not a guy we need to offload cuz he helps us too much. I just think he is a depreciating asset.

We don’t make deals for seconds. I wouldn’t be surprised if we went straight to buyout and balked at an additional move for seconds. If you were willing to use the roster spot, it would make more sense, too, because it’s a contract you can just leave on the payroll in the event you need it in February.

I think you are underrating what the Vic/Scoot game might have done for Ryan's willingness to sell guys off for very little return.

What I was referring to is buying out Jae vs. trading Jae for Danny Green and seconds.

I think we could do a three team deal with Memphis... JC/Vando to Phoenix, Jae to Memphis, Danny Green and Shamet to Utah. In this scenario I could see Memphis sending seconds to us or Phoenix and Phoenix sending us a legit first. Saves Phoenix $7M between tax and salary. Phoenix could sub in Saric/Cam Payne instead of Shamet. I can see them wanting JC but then they really don't need one of Payne or Shamet.

Someone needs to remind Ryan you can sell second round picks for money on draft night... even if you don't make the pick they could turn into cash!!!
