Detroit doesn't want to lose a current contributor in a trade. They want to trade expendable or long term pieces for value now.

Detroit has been trying to trade Reggie Jackson for any other PG for the last year and a half....

I think his owners care about luxury tax... win now? They are 7th seed in the east. That's fine but not worth luxury tax.
I am 1000% better at math and finances than SVG. Just trust me on that.

I'm getting my Lopo on and doing a super dumb trade that has no actual basis in reality.
Charlotte gives us their unprotected 2018 pick (lulz I know).
Utah gives Charlotte their 2019 unprotected pick.
Charlotte gets out of the worst contract in the NBA (Batum, go look it up, it's wild) and Marvin Williams (his contract isnt horrendous, but it's not good). They will miss out on a great draft, but they get Hood and Exum. They can say some dumb **** to their fans like "Our biggest draft picks this year were Dante Exum and Rodney Hood".

Too funny. They’d have to pay royalties to KOC for plagiarizing a page of his book.
God this trade is terrible. Obviously what Charlotte should do is just trade Kemba and tank that bitch. Deal w/ dumping off their bad contracts next year.

Cy, seriously, why are you such an unhappy, pain in the ***?
Every single trade I propose has a logic to them. If you don't agree, well tough cookies. Will the other team or the Jazz even bite on the trade? Most times no because there is too much pride involved and trades are more difficult to pull off than the trade machine makes it appear. Every trade I propose is based off of credible sources or straight from a GM, coach, etc. And every trade idea comes as the initial offer. An initial offer is rarely ever the one agreed upon. It's called compromise.
So if you don't like a trade idea, swallow your extremely small sense of pride and just agree with it or disagree with it. Taking shots will not make you any bigger or me upset. I'm going to do what I do which is stay positive and look for solutions.
On to the next idea...

So you think Rubio helps them win, is a good player, and worth something?
I am pretty sure Rubio's trade value is very low right now and not a PG that Detroit feels is a difference maker. I think Jazz will have to pay to dump his contract or throw him in a deal to make the difference with salary. More likely is that the Jazz hold on to him until he expires or at least until he an expiring contract and maybe worth something. Or he starts to fit in better here and play better.
I think they want a PG but either Rubio is good, worth assests and helps teams win or he isnt and they dont want him. You cant have it both ways. He cant be a bad player for us that we need to get rid of and dislike but other teams value and want to help make a playoff run with.
Like I said, the only way they take Rubio is if the Jazz take Jackson. I really really doubt the Jazz want Jackson.
Ok? You post trades, I critique. If you cant handle, don't post trades. Your trades usually blow and very few people actually think they make sense.
Yeah, I also doubt they want to swap Rubio for Jackson. I know he is out know but Rubio is not an upgrade. I know Jackson is out until the all-star break but i doubt they are willing to downgrade their PG just to get a month of a PG. I also doubt, like you said, Jazz want to get a meh PG that has that long of a contract.
