Trade Rumors Involving the Jazz

Keep in mind that Ferguson is basing this off of a report from some dude with 40 followers or whatever and some random internet stranger on another sports forum.

Yeah but that dude is basing his "report" off what everyone has been saying unofficially. It's not like that dude just made Miami up out of thin air.

I'm pretty sure it was Fat Joe (a famous rapper out of NYK who is close to Mitchell) that said Mitchell wants to be in Miami.

I'm just going to say it. Without Gobert Don may not make the all star game. We're likely bottom of the pack and without Rudy screening our offense may be putrid forcing Don into being even more of a chucker. I personally can't wait to see how this season shapes up.

Excellent point.
 
We want players that don't fit to have a record next year to get our top 10 protected pick back. So heck yeah, give me Randle and all the garbage players and lots of picks.

And frankly, I hope we have no all-star in that all-star game. It would force most of the All-stars to say something and have sympathy. The coverage may be even better for SLC.
 
Not saying I’m advocating for this, but what would everyone’s reaction be to the following?

BKN gets Mitchell + Ayton
PHX gets Durant
UTA gets Simmons and 4 unprotected 1sts and 3 pick swaps from PHX + any available draft assets BKN can offer.

I could see Ainge entertaining that offer. Especially considering the current state of PHX’s ownership and who knows what’s going to happen with Sarver’s issues.

Just saying, for the fans who want to go full tank, this might be our avenue to getting the largest haul of picks possible.

Yeah you said this yesterday, and I asked you to link me to the report confirming that Mitchell asked for a trade to the Heat.

You didn't do it, but I'm a reasonable man, so I'll give you another chance. Post the link to the report.

Windhorst at ESPN is reporting that league executives expect Donovan to be traded this offseason, potentially in the next few days, and that NYK and Miami are his preferred destinations. (https://heatnation.com/videos/brian...ll-the-league-thinks-hes-getting-traded-soon/). If Mitchell has named NYK and MIA as his preferred trade destinations, that's evidence that he's made a request.

NBA Intel Report (https://www.actionnetwork.com/nba/n...tel-early-free-agency-targets-2022-matt-moore) -- "As far as the idea of a Mitchell trade coming down the pike, league sources do feel that it’s a matter of 'when and not if' with Mitchell eventually asking to go to a “glamour market” like New York or Miami."

If you look at how the Jazz are now discussing Mitchell trade packages with Miami and New York, as well as throwing themselves into the Kevin Durant discussions with PHX and BRK, it's pretty obvious the Jazz are open to trading Mitchell. If nothing happens, then fine, but saying that this isn't a real rumor is burying your head in the sand at this point.

I vote full tank. This year's draft is the best in a decade. Mitchell will force his way out. Might as well capitalize on the best draft at the same time. We shouldn't delay.
