Who Should the Jazz Bring In?

Of course we'd have to give away picks in any Bogey trade. But if we can get Gordon in return it'd be one of the best case scenarios

I’d take Casper in a heartbeat! Street cred for days! Coolest character in Uncle Drew and the best dunker never to win the slam dunk.
If we don’t lay it on the table now, when will we ever be in this position again? Sit on our thumbs in conservative Jazz style and take another 1st round loss and I’m Larry David’s Jets fan friend. Well I mean minus the trophy wife with the magic vajee:(

Almost the end of the 3rd against Chicago and Bogie and Royce killing it again with 11 pts and 4-14 (28 percent) shooting. I really don’t understand why we think their production is so irreplaceable.

Neither Hughes or Oni have even entered the game. Why? We couldn’t work at least one of these guys into the lineup to see what they got? Just a few mins???

Hard to read any of ther
Rookies rarely help you win outside of elite talent. Hughes might become a rotation player for us but those players you listed are rotational players. You are telling the best team in the NBA to play someone who hasn't proved anything, to play over legit players.

Then why didn’t we draft for greater talent? If our current cop of picks aren’t playable, why didn’t we go for a project with a greater ceiling than Hughes/Udoka? Or trade out of the draft altogether for when we might need a draft instead of rely on our current roster?

I don’t necessarily disagree with you here. I’m just trying to follow the logic of the jazz because it doesn’t seem to be very coherent. If we had a veteran team that had room for rookies, why not draft a project or trade out of the draft altogether? I thought we got Hughes and Udoka, players with shorter ceilings than other players available in the draft, because we thought they were players who could contribute immediately?

Not sure what you mean by masquerading as toughness. Im pretty average in strength and toughness I think. Although im pretty sure I read more and watch tv less than the average person. Since you seem to know me for 10+ years, May I ask who you were? Because I don’t recognize your name at all.

They aren't playable because we have a really deep good team, it has nothing to do with them. Pretty much no draft pick in our range was going to play over our rotational players, nor was that the plan. Draft picks are generally for the future and need to be developed. Bad teams or teams with a lack of depth will play rookies more or the rare rookie that is great. But generally you sacrifice winning by playing rookies to try and develop them more and see what their potential is. We are all in for winning now, and doing a pretty damn good job at it.

Btw, Bojan's TS% this year is better than Mitchell or Clarkson.
