Utah Trade Deadline Discussion

That may be true. But my counterargument would be that they aren't just getting Hood. We are also taking Bayless off of their books which is something they want. Plus if Korkmaz is one of the positive assets we are getting back we are taking a risk because of his Lisfranc injury. So it may warrant more in return.
Bayless is only owed 8 million. It's no big deal to them.
 
One thing I thought today... Cleveland should offer their first and Osman to BKN for Dinwiddie. Increase the value of the BKN pick and get good cheap production.

Not sure the Nets would say yes, but they are likely now starting their full rebuild this offseason.

Moving the pick, Bayless, and Korkmaz gets them to $35M in cap space for LBJ... then they can make a max offer while retaining Hood's cap hold.

It certainly adds value for them, but not as much as taking salary from a tax strapped team.
 
If we are going to bring up LeBron, and I'm not joking, his best fit for the next 4 year contract would be with us. If we were able to shed Burks, renounce Thabo and Jerekbo, maybe Udoh, we could have:

PG Rubio
SG Mitchell
SF Ingles
PF LeBron
C Gobert
Exum, O'Neale, our 2018 1st, Bradley

You can't leave Ingles or Mitchell open. Gobert cleans up the paint. Our defense would be unreal. The roster takes pressure off of LeBron having to do everything. And if he is worried about legacy, he would be the GOAT if he brought a title to Cleveland AND Utah.
 
Ok, im not LoPo's alt; i promise.

Reports are that LBJ's relationship with Gilbert is again falling apart. That team is a mess and Gilbert is hemorraging money and doesnt want to commit to salaries like Hill to fix this year.

If Lebron cant go to GS. Houston or Boston, what team offerx him the best shot at a title? Utah!

It aint going to happen, but its a wonderful fantasy.

When I first read this I got confused on the avatar and thought it was Cy.
 
Call me crazy, but I do not want Lebron period. I hate his attitude.

What's wrong with his attitude? He wants to win so badly that he'll even push the FO to be better? Is he better off just grinning and bearing it? The guy is an absolute beast and his teams are always relevant regardless of his supporting cast. The guy would absolutely shine on our roster.
