Trade Rumors Involving the Jazz

Do you have any examples of Collins being a headcase? I don't ever remember him being in trouble or causing any problems with the Hawks.
I have the same proof anyone observing his lower level of intensity and motor, since he was busted for cheating the league, seeking unfair gains from unregulated amounts of banned substances, is highly likely to be of low character, willing to cheat and "lie" about anything to get an edge. He imo Is not the kind of person you should ever seek to trade for. Why they are shopping him imo has more to do with him than anything else
 
There is a great piece in there around the 3rd page about why Collins isn’t being utilized correctly like he was in the past.
The big question is can we actually utilize him correctly without stunting Lauri's development. That is still a huge concern for me but not as much as it was a month ago with Lauri clearly becoming more of an alpha type on the court. He finally has that alpha mentality and I think it is here to stay.

Lauri is probably the most unselfish all-star in the league.

He would be pouting about not getting touches by the 5th game together and the Finnisher getting all of them. Why you, the biggest Lauri homer on here, thinks going after Collins is a great idea is laughable to me. It only makes me think you really don't understand how messed up things are in ATL. If you really buy Ainge wants that baggage coming here, you have to think tanking was the front office game plan all along

Playing with Lauri and playing with Trae is polar opposites. I’m sure Collins would thrive here and Lauri wouldn’t mind having a great young player to grow with. He would get plenty of touches.

oh I see, so Collins be disgruntled about not getting touches, on a team with arguably the best playmaking point guard in the league ,who added another high level playmaker in Murray as well. He then wouldn't be disgruntled if he was somewhere like here, that has a injured combo guard in Sexton, who most think isn't ever going to be a point guard, and the only other playaker is a soon to be retired vet, or a career long microwave in JC that suddenly can pass if he is a starter. What **** you smokin homie
 
I have ZERO doubt Collins and Lauri could both get all the touches they want/need. There are teams all over the league with multiple high usage dudes that seem to not have issues there.

If this happens and they get their shots within the system, this could be a huge win for the Jazz IMO.
 
Getting Collins for Beasley/Vando is buying a very talented player for an extremely low cost in my opinion.
