Trade Rumors Involving the Jazz

I think so. They just can't go on like this. I don't believe AD and James will accept to loose another year. They play well since the beginning of the season specially AD. Won't be surprised if something happen very soon.
Accept what l? They under contract
 
No worries bout Mike. 9 Assits/Game after 4 is not bad. He should not have play against Houston.
And i think one of the reason why he don't shoot well is because he is shooting a lot and loose some rythm after 2 years where he was not shooting much.
But again it was stupid to make him play against Houston, min should have been on Sexton and Beasley.

He's actually only taking 10 shots a game this season, which is less than his previous 3 seasons with the Jazz.
 
Should not have played him last night... that was so dumb. Could tell he had no legs and didn't want to shoot it... guys dropped under the screen and he wasn't even thinking about it.

Need to really manage his games played so when he does his legs are live. I think his 3 point shot comes around.
You would think that if we kept him around 24 minutes a game that it would keep his legs fresh. It is definitely Strange to see him so inconsistent with his jumper though even when he has his legs. At some point he has to snap out of it because we know the guy can shoot.

A couple game shooting slump isn't a big deal, and doesn't take away from Mike being one of the best shooters last year and his whole career. I doubt teams are too concerned about it. I think teams are probably more impressed with his 9 assists a game and leading the team to an improbable record.

That said, I think Mike gets in his head way too much and loses confidence causing longer shooting slumps than others.
 
Question ... would you trade markkanen to the Lakers if they offered both of their first rounders?
Probably not tbh. 25 year old wing/stretch 4 that is showing a whole different aspect to his game. I’d prefer to see what his ceiling is instead of trying to sell now. Still, if you think they’ll be hot trash, you have to consider it.

And take Westbook? LOL, no!

Those picks could be garbage, and Markkanen could be legit. Even with his health history, that would be a serious risky bet for the Jazz.

If the Jazz are able to trade the other vets, we can still "tank" and retain Markkanen. Meaning we will already have our complementary star in place when we draft, trade, and pursue free agents. I think you gotta keep him.

If westbrook wasn't involved then probably. Thats a tough one though. I, like everyone else, really like Lauri
 
I won't . I like Lauri, he is a really good players. Trading all good players just for an hypothetic good pick is not a good thing. Memphis was having a correct roster before landing Ja and Bane.
Trading vet like Mike or Beasley make sense.
