Draft Day Trade possibility

I see the Jazz as being very flexible in this draft. I suspect some movement in the draft as a likely possibility ESPECIALLY if no one falls all the way to the #12 that we have rated highly. Celtics are rumored to be looking to move up. I was looking around and I could see the Celtics trading #16 and #28 to the Jazz for #12. The draft has deeper talent with players likely being available into the late rounds of the first. With DOL's ability to draft well and spot talent deep in the draft, it's a cheap way for us to pick up 2 for 1. Pick one for now, one for later move. It would be the opposite of what we did with Trey in a similar draft and I could see it being a nice play in this draft.

With other teams behind us rumored to be looking to trade out of the spot, the Jazz would be the first in line for the Celtics to talk to in order to leapfrog a few teams to grab 'their guy'. If a call from Ainge to DOL doesn't happen to explore availability of this option, I would be shocked.

(I know, I know... don't pollute the board with draft topics because we have one single 700+ page thread dedicated to the topic. So, let's limit all things about the 2015/2016 season to one thread while we are at it you thread nazi's. Get over it and if you don't like it, then don't open threads that say 'draft' in them and keep on reading Anna Karina...)
 
I dont see us trading this pick for more picks. We dont need more young players on this team. If we trade this pick it will be for a player, a future pick or moving up in the draft. My best guess would be someone the Jazz have ranked in their top tier or second tier falling and Jazz moving up to get him. Second most likely is trading for a veteran player that is solid or a decent veteran and a future 1st.

Jazz ARE NOT trading before the draft. How many years are we going to beg trade the 12 and a 2nd rounder for the number 1 pick? There will be no trades. They are not easy like you make it sound like children trading trading cards. I gurrandamntee THE JAZZ WILL NOT TRADE. Please shut TFU about this now.

Why do you have to be so rude? Please learn to be nice. You can say it nice and still be able to deliver your point. You are right though we cant trade 12 and a 2nd for number 1, but you are the first person I have heard say that honestly.

Rude? Did u just get your first period?

Look kitten, forgive me if these bandwagon fans tweak my nose. Jazz ARE NOT trading up. ANYONE who implies otherwise is not a true Jazz or NBA fan. They should not be allowed to post on a jazz board with me and you.

You can use "they" now. I like it as a gender neutral singular pronoun. A lot more than his/her anyway.


PS I'm not trying to be critical. Helpful hopefully

I don't know, isn't "they" reserved for some sub set of humans? Dalmon has me so confused on gender labels that I might have to give up pronouns all together.

Don't forget, the Jazz have made multiple trades in the past two drafts. I think the only team that has made more draft day trades since DL has been in Utah is the Sixers.
 
I posted this exact trade idea last week - https://jazzfanz.com/showthread.php?40862-Trading-Down-in-the-Draft.

The Jazz should not consider this trade if Johnson, Porzingas, or Hezonja fall to #12 OR they have one main target at #12 that they really want and he is on the board when they pick. If they have a handful of guys rated equally on their board when they are on the clock they should make this deal since at least one of those players will be on the board at #16, plus they'd add another first round pick.
 
NAOS blows up and threatens to leave JF. At the same time Dumbblowke has a resurgence, but even meaner than before as if he is carrying a grudge or is just pissed off or something.

Coincidence?

Here's a thought... READ the post before you make a stupid comment.

The MAIN comment here is that we would trade #12 for #16 AND a bonus #28 (draft and stash) IF and only if our 'guy' was likely to remain on the board at #16. DOL is bright enough to turn $1.00 into $1.25 by picking up an asset at #28 IF we can still get the player that we want at #16 vs. #12. Trading down is hard. Trading up is easy. It's a reversal of when we traded two picks to move up when we got Trey, just on the other side. The alternative is 2 number 1 draft picks to move UP to grab our guy. Also a possibility with how many picks we already have. Fact is: We are flexible enough to package assets to move up OR to get more bang for our buck than we get staying at #12. I consider one of these two situations not only a possibility, but almost likely!
