What's new

Following potential 2015 draftees

I would be pissed if we traded Favors for a draft pick. If we trade Favors for a draft pick then you for sure need to trade Hayward for a draft pick since we are starting over again.

I dont want the Jazz to trade Favors but if they do it better be for an all-star player, not some unknown draft pick who is more likely to be a bust than be better than Favors. I see very little chance that Jazz would trade Favors. He is on a great contract and plays at a borderline all-star level and likes being here.
 
D'Angelo Russell canceled his workout with Philadelphia today.

He might have a promise to the Lakers at #2? Porz to Philly makes a lot more sense now.

It has been reported that he was very sick and teh GM wasn't going to be there, so he canceled and will reschedule.
 
Favors or Hayward. The Knicks would want an established young vet with All Star potential in the Eastern Conf. to pair with Carmello. If you're bringing back Porzi, then sending out Favors makes sense. Maybe the Jazz also get a future pick since Favors is proven.

It's a gutsy move considering how good Favors + Gobert are defensively together. But it gives us more offense, better spacing and probably more potential to play faster.

Exum + Porzingis + Gobert would be dazzling.

What about this?

Jazz get: Harrison Barnes, David Lee, Knicks Pick

Knicks get: Derrick Favors

Waarriors get: Bargnani, Ingles, Jerrett, Millsap(clear up 18 million to resign Green and go shopping)

I'm not high on Barnes or Lee to the point that they would enter the discussion. Jazz should just deal with the Knicks.

If Dave Checketts is still involved in the Knicks organization, there's still some Jazz connection there, btw.

I wouldn't trade Favs for just the 4th pick but I think if we could get another player plus the pick then that's certainly something we would have to consider. How would you make salaries match without a 3rd team? Calderon and Junk? No thanks.
 
I'm only trading Hayward or Favors for Towns or Russell. Porzingis could be really good, or ****ing unplayable.

I'm strapped for time/lazy, but I don't think the Knicks are over the cap and can absorb salary.

No way Turner falls to 16. Not sure why the Heat take Oubre over Johnson, but hey you never know.
