Yep that pick is the biggest regret have for not doing the New York deal. Cheering against Dallas would have been Hella fun.
Luka would never ever allow the Mavs to shut him down
They could easily be a 7/8 seed even if Luka never misses a game.

NBA Mock Trade: Thunder Add Lauri Markkanen to Frontcourt of Future
Upon Chet Holmgren's return next season, could Jazz forward Lauri Markkanen be a good fit alongside him with the Thunder?
Basically, Markkannen for Bazley, Favors, and future 1st (assuming getting back our picket for '24). This assumes future trades to clear our roster situation. Heads off some of the sting of losing Chet for the season and helps to relax any worry about SGA.
In an effort to kill the spider, we swallowed the mouse. This deal would be swallowing a cat to get the mouse.Found this as an interesting idea.

Don't see your point there. Utah basically gains cap space and our 1st back. Unless we're sold on Lauri being absolutely better than anyone we'll get in '24.
We also convey if outside for whatever reason in '24, same in 25, then out of the top 8 in 26.
