Trade Rumors Involving the Jazz

Reminds of when people thought we weren’t trading Gobert or Mitchell. We are definitely making at least one trade. I’m like 99.999% sure.
Yeah my only pause is if there is only second round value placed on Beasley and Vando and the Hawks don't offer up draft assets with Collins... trade deadline deals can dry up and if you have your hands in the wrong deals you may turn to the alternate deals and its too late.

I think its funny that some forget how this works... Like 2 days before the deadline is when deals start... Usually there is a deal after the 12/15 or 1/15 moratorium on the guys that signed in the summer. If there are deals during the dead period they are emergency style trades and aren't usually big deals.
 
Aah... but Lauri missed 2 of those games and he played with Beasley, Clarkson and Conley all in.

Kessler + Lauri defensive rating.

For the season: 105.8 (457 min)
Since Kessler became starter: 97.7 (41 min)

Wow. That is quite impressive. That’s definitely something.

That is the recipe for us... Lauri/Walker are mfers at the rim and we are a good defense... we get mega efficient production from Lauri on high volume and Walker on low volume... then JC provides good average offensive production... the challenge is improving the defense on the wing and making sure to do it while having efficient floor spacers... It is why I really want to see Ochai starting instead of Beasley.

At least for now that's how I see us becoming a 50 win team again.
 
As of right now... my prediction is we trade both Beasley and Vando and get a first or two for it. I think you keep Mike unless something great comes along and you can also use his salary in a sign and trade.

I also think we buy Rudy Gay out after the deadline and there will be much rejoicing.
 
I get the feeling we're going to make multiple moves.
I also think draft night will be about moving up or around the draft to get the guys we love in the draft. I think we may poke around the sign and trade market.

Not something I would want to do but say Toronto goes to the wire with FVV and this summer doesn't want his deal... If we love him you send Mike/THT and a first to Toronto so they don't lose him for nothing. I think sign and trades is where I would be opportunistic. Can get good value there still but might have to take on a risky deal.

Again not saying I'd go for FVV... it was an example.

I can’t say I haven’t thought about trading for FVV…
