Trey Lyles

Good lord, please stop.

You'd rather have Lyles than Hood? Lmfao

Where did he say that?

I read it as thee would even give up hood (who is even better than lyles) now that we know how good DM is.

Of course that's what u got out of that. Lol. All I meant is I'd rather have DM over Hood and if that had been the trade, it was still a good trade. Lyles had nothing to do with it. With that said I'm glad it was Lyles over Hood

If I recall correctly, last season Orlando let a picture out of their "War Room" which showed a white board list of players who Orlando valued but were underutilized on their current team. Trey's name was prominently displayed on the list.

He was a former lottery pick getting zero playing time. I bet several teams called the Jazz about him.

For me I liked the idea of Trey Lyles, at least the idea that Dennis O'Lindsey painted in my mind. The actual player Trey Lyles was irritating from the very moment he refused to play at summer camp as a rookie, right up to wearing Lakers gear and goofing off during the playoffs. So, farwell Mr. Proprioception and enjoy riding NBA pine for the next 4 years.

He still does not play defense and was just moved around so easily by other bigs.
 
The irony will be that we want a Lyles type next to Gobert and Mitchell sooner rather than later. More ironic, is that we wish we had a Millsap, Booker, Carroll, Korver, and Wes Matthews type too.

Booker is a FA next summer.

Yup and DL turned him into a home run with Mitchell. Excellent use of Lyles by DL.

When the trade happened I was like we sent Lyles and our pick plus what else for DM... then there was no what else and I was a little shocked. We got full value and then some for what Lyles had shown.

I know so little about guys coming into the league that I always take a wait and see approach to who we draft. I liked that DL did something on draft night but didn't even know that Mitchell existed before that night. But Mitchell took my wait and see aproach and blew it out of the water.
