Utah Trade Deadline Discussion

Can they even afford him? Him joining the dubs would be an even weaker move then Durant going there, he can't afford that stigma, can he, if he wants to be the goat.

He could agree to opt in to his last year and have the Cavs trade him to the Warriors, ala CP3 to Houston.

Does LBJ not like competition? If I was some sports writer with a hof vote, and he does this, I'd have a hard time voting for him on his first ballot

What's in it for the Cavs? Iggy is a terrible contract, and Klay is a one-year rental. If they get every second first round pick the Warriors have the next decade or so, perhaps.

Honestly tho, I think this is just the Warriors trying to distract from getting beat by 30 to the Jazz.

If you are the Cavs would you rather lose Lebron or get something back for him? I could see Gilbert being petty enough just to lose him rather than trade him to the Warriors, but as a franchise the latter is much smarter.

I mean, there is an outside shot that the Rockets beat the Warriors this year.....

Somebody in LeBron's vast group probably said "he hasnt made a decision and will consider all options." The Warriors are an option and makes for good click bait.

Well if this turns out to not be a silly rumor, NBA fans all over the world need to unite and threaten to stop watching the NBA and not go to games to keep this from happening. This would ruin the NBA for me. If I'm The commish, I'm not letting this happen much like the NBA stopped CP3 from being traded to the lakers

I was thinking we beat them so bad that they were like “we aren’t good enough... maybe we could get Lebron”

Great, the jazz would be at fault for ruining the NBA

I'd still watch. I'd just hope Cleveland would be able to get Green and Klay. I think a Durant/Lebron/Curry trio would be incredibly interesting. But even if they just had to trade Klay, I'd still be interested.

Also, if the Warriors traded Klay, that increases Utah's chances of possibly being able to sign Klay in 2019.

I mean, you could argue the Jazz giving the Warriors Iggy by facilitating the Denver trade was the final piece the Warriors needed to turn into a dynasty. Maybe if the Jazz dont do that trade then the Warriors never win a championship and KD never joins them.
