Trade Rumors Involving the Jazz

[Handlogten's Heros]

Nobody was giving up multiple picks for Kyrie I don’t think.

Monty said Lakers would.

I thought Brooklyn wasn't moving Durant? That 4 frp quickly changed that I bet.

Why would Brooklyn let them? They have Claxton… bridges is way more valuable

Do a three team trade with the Clippers or the Spurs. Send Ayton to one of those two teams and have them send over Zubac/Poeltl plus players/draft capitals to the Nets. Or Knicks Mitchell Robinson would be another option.

But now losing Bridges would mean the Suns become a top heavy team with not enough perimeter/wing defenders. I just don't see them as favorites to win the west, let alone championship.

Again… Brooklyn says no… they can spin off bridges for more than Ayton… it’s like saying we should have done the Cleveland trade but keep Don and move JC instead.

t'wolves be kicking themselves now for offering us the Durant package to get Gobert.

And one can argue that we received more than what the Suns offered for KD.

Agreed Suns don't have any players to do the dirty work.

OKC has some of Houston’s picks; Houston as Brooklyn’s picks: Brooklyn has Phoenix’s picks… the Wolves, Cavs, Lakers, Clipppers, Bucks, 76ers all have/had multiple picks owed. It’s getting too much to keep track of!

Rudy Gay was kinda pissy after the game… wonder if he’d take a buyout to pick his next team.

He still hasn't figured out that zero contenders would give him playing time.

Really? I think Bridges is significantly more valuable and as others have noted the Suns roster is much older than the Wolves.

 

[Handlogten's Heros]

I’ve decided we should move JC… he looks kinda checked out lately… it’s understandable.

Apparently Kyle Lowry is done with Miami…hmmmmm

Sure can. We traded Gobert AND Mitchell. They traded Kyrie AND Durant.

They received 5 1st round picks, Mikal Bridges, Cam Johnson, Crowder, DFS, and Dinwiddie.

We received essentially 9 first round picks (including the Lakers pick that was facilitated by role players we picked up plus conley).

We also received 3 pick swaps Lauri, Sexton, Ochai, and Walker Kessler.

DURANT in a vacuum got the most assets. But the Jazz received way more for Gobert and Mitchell than the Nets did for Kyrie and Durant.
