Utah Trade Deadline Discussion

[idiot]

Hoopshype reporting the Pistons are looking at a Hood for Stanley Johnson trade. Hmm.

Just a reminder: Hoopshype doesn't typically report. In most cases (including this one) it aggregates.

In this case, it's a Kevin O'Connor "The Ringer" article from yesterday shortly after the Griffin trade went down: "Multiple sources say that they are after Jazz guard Rodney Hood and could send out forward Stanley Johnson."

So it's neither all that new this morning, nor is it from the Jazz perspective (more like a Pistons wish list).

Of course, there could be something there still. O'Connor generally has a decent reputation as a reporter. But the report itself says nothing one way or the other about the Jazz's interest.

The Jazz are 100% not trading Hood for Johnson straight up. they have 0 assets outside of Kennard, so unless they want to do Kennard for Hood straight up, not **** going to happen. like Idiot said, this is most likely just the aggregate sites reading the KOC rumor from yesterday and assuming it still applies post-Griffin trade.

They cant even trade their 2020 pick because of the protections currently on the 2018 pick

I think they can specify it as something along the lines of "first round pick 2 years after the pick to LAC conveys". The OKC pick we had was similar. We got that pick in 2015, while OKC still had a conditional pick obligation to PHI. It didn't convey in 2015 because it didn't satisfy the condition and we had to wait for the OKC 2016 pick to convey to PHI in order to get the 2018 pick. We can do similar trade for the first available DET pick after the pick to LAC is conveyed.

So follow me if you will....

Clips trade Bradley to Cavs for Frye and Cavs' 2018 1st (very reasonable and logical trade for both)

We then trade Burks and Favors to Clips for Gallinari and Cav's 2018 1st (Clippers would love to shed DG's deal while staying 2018 relevant)

We then trade Rubio and our 2nd for Gortat, Frazier (expiring) and Wiz 2018 1st

We then trade Gortat to Bucks for Teletovic (Bucks want to win now, need a center, and Teletovic has had medical issues although he gives us another stretch 4. We save some money on this deal since Gortat makes a couple million more than Teletovic)

Result:
PG Mitchell
SG Hood
SF Ingles
PF Gallinari
C Gobert
Bench - Udoh, Exum, O'Neale, Jerekbo, Teletovic, Neto, Bradley, Thabo (expiring), JoeJ (expiring), Frazier (expiring)
Picks - Our 1st, Cavs' 1st and Wiz 1st
We probably pay the luxury in 2018-19, but we would be clear when we hit 2019.

Now that a trade has gone down, a big one no less, I’m hoping the damn breaks and teams start making moves.

DL hear my cries! All in brother, all in. Bus or Tank makes no damn difference! Just choose one and burn away everything else.

Let’s do this!!!

From a lot of what I've heard is teams are only lukewarm on jazz players. We all know the jazz won't make a trade just to make one. Sounds as if teams might want us to take their crap contracts for less. It might be hard to make a trade. I'm preparing for there to not be a trade.

I want no part of Gallo. That contract is about as bad as it gets

 

[Thee Jazz Fan]

If the jazz are taking on Gallo, we better be getting a top 5 pick.

[Engorged On Unborn Gore]

Meh. The Jazz can do better than that for Rodney.

 

[infection]

Hell no to Gallo. Unless we're talking about Jerry Gallo.

 

[LoPo]

Hell no to Gallo. Unless we're talking about Jerry Gallo.

You mean Jerry Callo?
