Trade Rumors Involving the Jazz

[whatthe]

I see him as a free agent. We are going to throw money at someone, so why not him. Timeline is a little wonky, but the quality goes up to be competitive. We have a million picks so we can risk things. If he won't sign at a reasonable price then it sets up the Jazz to do another trade. Maybe we could get a 2023 or a 2024 draft pick out of it if it falls apart. If it works out well and the team gets a championship then it would be worth it. Have your cake and it eat it too. Building, building building is boring seize the moment now, I say.

Oh...yeah...one major downside, is that maybe Vando would view him as threat to his job, but I think Vando would still fit. But we get more depth and we get another near top-line weapon on the team.

The starting lineup would be:

Kessler
Markannen
Kuzma
Clarkson
Conley

Olynyk and Vanderbilt and Beasley and NAW and Sexton would come off the bench. That's an insanely good team. I think it might turn into the best offensive team with Kessler, Vando, Kuz, and Naw boosting the defense to a top 5 defense. Ah...championship would already be possible this year. Yikes!

Both of those aren’t true lol.

Nah Danny wants younger guys for his long-term build

You really think adding Kyle Kuzma to this roster would boost us all the way up to a top 5 defense AND make us a championship contender?!?! Kuzma's a nice player, but c'mon man.

You are seriously on crack. Kuz isn't nearly the player you think he is and is an average defender at best. That team wouldn't even sniff a championship and Kuz would definitely stunt the growth of Lauri.

I would try to get him to agree to an extension before agreeing on it.

There is no upside for him to consider doing that. It would also be completely meaningless if he did since he actually wouldn't be locked into anything.

How do you not know what I am talking about when your post was about only trading for Kuzma if he agreed to an extension even though that isn't even a possibility.

Is he not extension eligible?

Not sure about Kuzma He's a good player
Vanderbilt seems like a similar type player Jazz already have
He's younger and cheaper
