Woj: Don to the Cavs for Markkanen, Agbaji, Sexton, three unprotected 1sts, two swaps, and a partridge in a pear tree.

Gun to my head, the Gobert deal was better... significantly. And if trade value is supposed to correspond to how much a player helps your team win, then that difference is appropriate.

I mean the two best players from both deals are coming from Donovan’s side. The 2029 1st from Cleveland is unprotected. We got an extra pick swap in 2028. I don’t really know what you’re seeing.

We don’t have to do this anyways let’s just be happy we got great hauls for both.

also, one other point is that getting good players could be seen as a bad part of a trade for what the jazz are trying to do (suck *** and tank hard AF)

Lol I'm glad he's was wrong. Don't let me trigger you.

He wasn't wrong...

The Gobert trade was crazy though. Recap:
Malik beasley
patrick beverly
leandro bolmaro
walker kessler
jarred vanderbilt
2023 first round
2025 first round
2026 swap
2027 first round
2029 first round
and I believe all those picks are basically unprotected. I like what we got for rudy quite a bit more than what we got for donovan though I like both trades.

Both trades are likely overpays, but that T-Wolves trade might cement Danny Ainge’s legacy tbh.

Not if they flip them for more assets or better draft position.

Agbaji is a dangerous shooter.

I'm a dangerous shooter, just not a very good one.

I can't be triggered if I don't own a gun. Peace, love, and Tony Jones brah.

 

[Elizah Huge]

Being wrong but thanks. You can sit and like this was expected but he was wrong the entire time. He's the reason this forum spent months with crazy manufacturing of offers. He's the reason Cleveland was able the sneak in.

Jazz used him like a fiddle

What was he wrong about?

 

[fishonjazz]

Now we just need a tank commander.

JC is the ultimate tank commander. Probably the GOAT

Peace. Sorry I had an opinion. Last night he was still talking if the Knicks and how they would resume talking today. He was definitely right lol

 

[fishonjazz]

I do like the BDE from Ainge in completing the trade 2 days after Woj/NYK did that bogus "deadline" power play.

I like everything ainge has done. Remember when he got a first for Royce? Seems like a decade ago lol.

I cannot shake the feeling that we gotta watch the Mavs mid-season or around the draft next year (after their pick to NY conveys and the Stepien stuff can be known). I believe it's possible that they get two unprotected picks and one protected pick for him (part of the value being dumping Bertans' atrocious deal).
