Trey Lyles being held out of practice/Summer League for now

I spend 8 days talking myself into the virtues and benefits of lyles and then.....


I fall in love with a player, they trade him.
I talk myself into liking a coach and the fire him.
I like the traditional Jazz note, then the purple mountains, then the blue Deron, and now the traditional Jazz note.

I think the only thing steady is the Jazz bear and the name "Jazz".... And jazzfanz of course.

Long live jazzfanz.

But do not count out HOU in all of this. If LA really wants to go to HOU, the Rockets have the players to possibly make that work.

SAS: TD would have to come in around $6m. Renounce Manu and sign for Room ML, Waive Reggie Williams. That will get you to $18.8m

PHX: Would need to trade Mk. Morris and PJ Tucker to get to that $18.8m slot for Aldridge. Alex Len would be close but not sure you move him

So here is your LaMarcus Aldridge cheat sheet going into Day 4 of FA:
POR: Full Bird Rights. Can sign up to the max salary. 5yrs and most $


So phx would have to move tucker, Morris, maybe Len. I'd be very open to that!!

Something like "a good reliable source tells me that DL is working on a trade that will make us all worship him way more if he can pull it off but it will take a few days to get it done"

What about Bledsoe with phx? Jazz give up Burke, lyles, Booker for Bledsoe?

I would be ok with that trade but not super happy about it.
 
No one hit the nail.
Lyles is sitting (for now) because he is part of the trade. It's not Lyles worrying about injury, it's the FO not wanting to risk damaging an asset within their trade package.

if it is a combo of Burke / Burks and our bench scrubs fine I'd be pissed if they did all this talking up of how well Lyles fits in and then trade him

I bet that's what it is. A team wants Lyles. DL tells them you'd have to take Burke, Burks and Booker as well as part of the deal.


Booker it!!!
 
The question is "If Lyles is such a Jazz type of player - what other team could be so in love with him to want to this badly to trade for him"?

What's with the Burks and Booker hate? Stop drinking franks haterade and get some kool-aid.


I am for trading Lyles. I was underwhelmed with the pick and if they can package him and other pieces (ok fine, Burks and Booker included) to bring in a true impact player I say do it.

Maybe Dr Jones really does/did have inside info on draft night.

I thought DL and Snyder looked 'worn out' and 'tired' during the rookies' introduction.. I wonder if they really wanted Lyles or was it a pick for another team?


I don't get the sense that they're ecstatic about the pick then when they introduced Dante and Rodney last year (or even Trey & Gobert the year before).
 
Well, we know Indiana likes Lyles... I also know they 'like' Burke. Seems like a good trade partner, possibly.

^Just words.

But obviously not enough for them to draft Lyles ahead of Turner.....


Plus we have no use for any of their players Hibbert especially since we already have Gobert, and they're not trading Paul George... hmmmmmm...

Dr. Jones's insider intel seems super legitimate when you look at Dennis Lindsey's quote from yesterday:

"There was a call today that I didn’t expect. And so, when could we line up things? When could we conceivably, if you will, put someone on our roster that’s a positional and/or skillset and/or fit into the culture, that, u–just a unique chemistry that our guys are gaining? …

Could there be a time where I put on the GM hat and recommend to Quin and ownership that they, this asset-accumulation deal, it’d be worth the roster spot; it’s worth the possible interruption to chemistry at a short level? It’s hard to say."
